Wow...it's good. More umami than dark, surprisingly light. A cool sake! It has a lingering aftertaste and is very drinkable and graceful!
Oroku Five Star
Dry delicious! I'm going to go to John Cavilla's! and John Kabira comes out. The last taste is bitterness and sourness! I can't get enough of it! The strength of the acidity! The king of dry acidity. Classic acidity. Sourness that picks up later. Silver in aroma. 90 points.

Ya◯ 10 years aged sake
Aged for 10 years, it has a surprisingly clean acidity and a complex sweetness with a peculiar bitterness.
The complex sweetness finishes with a distinctive bitterness.
The sake has a complex sweetness and a unique bitterness.
White smoke rises with a powerful sound when the bottle is opened.
The slight air bubbles show the fermentation power of the wine.

The rice flavor and sweetness are strong, but the water used for brewing is delicious, so it goes in easily.
But there is a sharpness at the end.
I like it. I want to drink it again.
2015 Hachimaru Nao Kumi Yamadanishiki 80% Alcohol 17.5
Hachimaru's deliciousness is there, a little acidity, and it's hard to believe this sake is 10 years old. With dried fish and gyarabuki, it is also delicious.
I want to go to Shimane Prefecture this summer and have a drink with shijimi clam steamed with sake and Oroku!
