This is the last bottle I bought at Sota Watanabe Shoten on my trip to Aizu 🍶.
If you have a favorite brand of sake that is made to order, you can't miss it 🤭.
Now, open the bottle 🍶.
It's Yamadanishiki from Aizu, all Aizu 🤭.
It's all Aizu 🤭.
The taste is a sweetness reminiscent of syrup that spreads in the mouth 😊.
It is a mild and clear sweetness that is typical of Yama-no-i.
It goes down the throat smoothly and is easy to drink, and you can also enjoy its rich and elegant ginjo aroma 🥰.
The occasional hint of bitterness keeps you from getting bored 😘.
It was a well-balanced sake with a clean and fine sweetness 🤗.

A refreshing sake with a strong acidity.
This is better than hiyaoroshi in our climate.
It's so refreshing, you can just gobble it up!
Delicious!
easy to use, easy to drink
Lightly bitter and sharp. It has a crisp acidity. The sharpness is good. The sweetness comes from the depth of the sourness. Good for summer. Easy to drink. A little gourd-like?
Sweetness: 2.6
Acidity: 3.3
Dryness:2.6
Hinted aroma: 2.6
Forgot to raise it yesterday!
Slightly young banana-like aroma.
Contains and smooth texture.
Cotton candy.
Gentle sweetness, clean and clear with acidity.
The end is beautifully attenuated with a hint of bitterness.
Cosiness.
3.5/5 stars
Hello, nabe-san!
This sake has no peculiarities and is easy to drink even for those who are not used to drinking sake!
I like Aizu and other parts of Fukushima because there are a lot of good sake!
A special order product from Watanabe Sota Shoten.
The rice is 100% Yamadanishiki produced in Aizu.
It has a melon flavor with a very seme-like smell.
The taste is soft and smooth.
The bitter taste that comes along with the robust sweetness leaves a dry and refreshing aftertaste.

Summer Travel in Northeast Japan (3)
This summer, Niigata Airport→Sendai Airport✈️
This summer, we will be traveling in the southeast north of Japan, connecting Niigata Airport to Sendai Airport.
The current location is Aizu Sakashita→Aizu Wakamatsu.
The third bottle was a cup of sake from Yamanoi.
It is from a sake brewery in Minami Aizu,
It is a cute cup of sake, limited to a plant shop in Aizuwakamatsu 💕.
I stopped by to see if I could get some of Yamanoi's sake,
There are standard 60 and 40 in this stylish cup sake designed by Ayumi Monoe, a painter living in Kitakata, and I selected the 40 this time.
I couldn't believe that the plant shop was a liquor store.
I was surprised at the stylish storefront!
Do they even have a DJ booth?
The color is a slightly pale yellow.
The nose has a mild aroma of yellow peaches and a refreshing scent like bamboo grass.
The slightly thickened mouthfeel is followed by a gentle yellow peach aroma, then sweet and sour tastes spread gently, leaving a lingering umami aftertaste and a mildly mellow and moderately thick taste with a mildly bitter aftertaste.
The taste is mildly mellow and has a good thickness, yet it finishes easily and lightly.
A high level cup of sake 😊.
In Aizuwakamatsu, we toured Tsurugajo castle and Iimoriyama, and then went to Urabandai for lodging: ⛰️
After a relaxing soak in the hot spring at the hotel, I went to Urabandai.
After soaking in the hot spring at the hotel and rocking on the massage chair,
The moment when you open a cup of sake after soaking in a hot spring at a hotel and relaxing in a massage chair is the best 🤣.
Hi Hirupeko, good evening 😃Don't come to Tohoku❣️ Iimoriyama from Tsurugajo, my favorite course❤️ I'm going to treat my tired walking body with a massage machine and pour a cup of sake down my throat. Just imagine how blissful it is 😆💕.
Good evening, Hirupeko-san!
Good summer trip to the southeast north of Japan. ✈️
Your photos of sightseeing are beautiful✨
I hope you enjoy drinking a lot 🤗.
Good evening, Wakata-san. Looking back, I didn't get a shot of the red roof tiles of Tsurugajo castle 💦It was mid-summer, so this was a labor-saving prep-level trip, but I was happy just to be able to visit Aizu 💕I'll take my time and revisit 😊.
Good evening, ma-ki-. It was a summer trip to the southeast north✈️ like a run through, but I was happy to visit the places I have been warming up to visit someday💕more to come😊.
Hi Hirupeco, good evening. I'm so happy to see you here 🙂.
Castles make me excited!
I know 😁.
I'm looking forward to going the same route in a little while.
I'm looking forward to it. I'm looking forward to it 😁.
Good morning, Hirupeko 😃.
After a long day of driving and enjoying your family trip, you need to take a long bath to relax your body and then have a cup of sake "pakakak" 🥰.
I'm sinking just reading this: ☺️
I love the fact that you stopped by the arborist 👍.
Good morning, Hirupeko 😃.
I was in Aizuwakamatsu myself over the weekend 😁.
I stopped by a plant store, it's a stylish wooden store.
Puckering up at a hot spring hotel is the best 😆.
Good evening, Hanapin-san. I see you are also going to Aizu 😆 I always enjoy returning to my hometown since I always drink from the plant shop 😊The impregnable Tsurugajo castle is also very exciting ✨.
Good evening, Aladdin. Oh, did the gardener know I was drunk? I didn't go to the brewery, but I did go to the liquor store 🤭The sound of a cup of sake being opened is so soothing I want it as my ringtone🤣.
Good evening, Hiro-san. I've been to Aizuwakamatsu! And I'm so jealous that you're touring the sake breweries, which I wasn't able to do 👍I'll enjoy your posts 😆🙌!
The second glass of Yamanoi.
From the impression on the label, one would think it would be a sweet, mildly sweet wine, but the sweetness is not too much, and the overall impression is full-bodied, with just the right amount of dryness and just the right amount of acidity. It is an orthodox style.
It is well-balanced, so it is an all-around good sake, regardless of the situation of the drinker.
Opened August 6, 2025
Purchased at Sake no Akiyama
With a rice polishing ratio of 70, I expected a full-bodied flavor range 😚.
Oh, sharper than expected ^ ^ but soon full-bodied graininess 🌾.
Slightly acidic and warm overall^ Good sake 🍶.
