This is delicious! It has just the right amount of sweetness and acidity.
I enjoyed the standard Green Label I had before, but this one is much easier to drink. The alcohol content seems low. Let's chill it more.
The first sip is sweet but not too sweet, and the aftertaste is delicious, with a gorgeous atmosphere but a sake-like aftertaste! Easy to drink with a strong taste.
This is really delicious. It is made with 80% Saga rice, and you can taste the full flavor of the rice. The first time I opened the bottle, I tasted something like Isoboast. On the second day, it tasted different.

[Taste] [Mouthfeel
Body: 2.5
Acidity: 2.0
Sweetness: 2.0
Umami: 2.5
Bitterness: 1.5
Aftertaste: Medium to long. The thick, fruity sweetness of the rice lingers and slowly fades away with the acidity and bitterness.
Impression: A classic mellow, umami spicy Omachi.
The aroma is full of sake-kasu type rice, which gives the impression of umami, but the aroma of ripe fruit comes out later. In the mouth, the attack of the rice is strong, but the fruitiness of the sake is also present later on.
The 75% rice polishing leaves the strength and umami of Omachi in full force, with a classical, wild flavor, and a pronounced thickness and fullness.
Pairing] Rich and hearty dishes such as grilled meat, broiled eel, stewed pork, aged cheese, etc.
[Repeat Score] 2.0
Recently, we started to carry Shichida😋 in our local area.
I'm happy because it's one of the brands I've been wanting to drink: ❤️
The first one was a Junmai of Yamada Nishiki.
From the slight shuwashuwa, Yamada-san's specialty, sweet-umami❗️
It has a gentle bitter taste that makes you smile 🤭.
I'm looking forward to trying more!
