Amabuki has a sweet image.
but this one is sharp and firm.
The astringent aftertaste finishes it off.
Sake lovers will love it!

This is an old wine aged in barrels.
Aroma of oak, caramel and slight bitterness 🥰.
I guess this is similar to brandy or Shaoxing wine 🧐.
Seems to go well with tzatos and the manager said it tastes great on the rocks with ice made from coffee 🤔.
I would love to drink it 😆.
Super premium! Unbeatable Junmai Daiginjo!
◆Amabuki Junmai Daiginjyo Uraigami Nama
From Saga Prefecture, Miyagi County,
The very limited edition sake "Uraigami" from Amabuki came to our hands!
This is a fantastic Junmai Daiginjo that is secretly sold at the brewery. Yamada-Nishiki, the king of sake rice.
This special Junmai Daiginjo is made from 100% Yamada-Nishiki grown by Mr. Masatoshi Yamada V, the successor of Mr. Seizaburo O, the creator of Yamada-Nishiki's mother, Yamadaho, and polished to 40%.
And a special Junmai Daiginjo made with 100% Aizan, a very popular sake rice produced in Hyogo Prefecture, and polished to 40%.
These two types of sake are carefully brewed with oscillating flower yeast.
The "Arabashiri" portion, which is the first pressing of the best of these two types of sake rice, and the "Yame" portion, which is the last pressing under pressure, are specially blended to make a very special Junmai Daiginjo called "Ura-Raijin Nama", which is only available in very small quantities.
We can't wait to see when we will be able to open the bottle and drink it!
