Bamboo shoots in coconut sauce with duck pate.
It has a light, yet grainy and smooth taste that makes it a great food wine!
The duck pâté was more interesting after than before!
I want to drink it again!
At Aizu Kurabu @ Aizu Wakamatsu
This is a summer version of Yamanoi Shiro, a light nigori (light-bodied) draft sake, that has been bottle-aged for about six months.
The sweet and sour taste of the lactic acid beverage spreads in the mouth, making it a refreshing sake that is slightly different from its winter counterpart.
Hello, nabe-san.
Sake from Minamiaizu is delicious, isn't it? I like this Aizu sake brewery so much that I think their sake may be the best in Japan. All of them are delicious, including Yamanoi and Rin!
The aroma is melon-like.
The aftertaste is crisp without being too heavy.
I don't detect any cloying taste at all.
Delicious, but I personally prefer it rougher.
At a nearby bar.
Nice aroma, acidity fruity.
Nice aftertaste, clean and crisp.
Junmai sake? It didn't feel like that.
I like it a lot.
The package is also very nice.
We had a barbecue after a local activity. I was told that I still had enough to drink after drinking Kanbokuto Civien Summer Seasonal, Motomine Tsuru Clam Oorigarami Seasonal, and Banjo Kotobuki, so I brought out my home stock and drank the first bottle.
I think it was tasty and gentle.
I am sure it was delicious.

I went to CRAFT SAKE WEEK 2025.
This is the second time I have attended this event since last year 🤗.
It's a white label 🤍.
They say "fine ice" is "diamond dust."
Suddenly cool ✨
It's cloudy white 🤍.
Soft and gentle marshmallow-like sweetness typical of Yamai 😚.
Slight bitterness at the end ❓ astringent taste ❓ too subtle to tell 🤣.
Even after drinking a lot of sake, I can say "oh, it's so good" 🍶.
The third and fourth pictures are old label Yuten.
They came across it by accident while cleaning up 🤔.
The sweetness is about the same.
Slightly acid accented.
Kireyoshi😙.
Ginjo aroma in the nose when you include it 😊.
The gentle sweetness of the mountain well is addictive 🤗.
First time participating in CRAFT SAKE WEEK
Outdoor sake events are unusually exciting
Today's attraction was the Aizu Sake Brewery.
The newly married brewery owner and his wife pouring sake with smiles on their faces.
Yuten
Junmai Daiginjo with 40% polished rice
The aroma is subdued
The structure is firm.
The taste is calm and deep.
Might be too good to drink at the start
Fine ice
The last drink of the day
Lightly cloudy
Fresh and juicy with banana!
The gentle taste is typical of Yama-no-i.
Great expectations for the future!
One of my favorite sake in my hometown Fukushima, Yamanoi.
It really had a nice aroma👍.
This time, the Yamada Nishiki rice, the water, and the location (Aizu Sake Brewery) all came from Aizu. Now we have no choice but to eat the Aizu horse sashimi with a firm spicy miso sauce!
This was really great as a food sake or for chill time after a bath!
Nice sake 🍶.
Hello.
I remember a regular at an izakaya in Saitama, where I live now, recommended me a sake from Hamadori and it was delicious. But it is hard to find it here.
I'm really glad to hear that!
I too have not been able to drink Hamadori sake at all since I moved to Tokyo, so I buy some when I go home to my parents and bring it back 🍶.
