Sakiyami's autumn sake!
Aroma with a strong sourness. Slightly effervescent, with a grape-like fruity sensation of bitterness and sweetness. Fresh and fruity, but with a mild umami and bitterness that is typical of autumn sake, it has a fresh sensation. Delicious!
Wanted to try drinking Sakiyami,
I bought it at a liquor store in front of Shin-Maebashi station.
When opened, it has a dry taste with a sense of sizzle.
After a day of drinking, it has a nice sweetness and aroma.
I like the taste.
Purchased on the recommendation of my regular liquor store.
It seems to be a sake that has been aged in the brewer's refrigerator after being fire-aged.
The aroma has a hint of volatile alcohol and the glamorous and mellow aroma of red grapes.
The aroma is quiet, but it is pinpointed with this scent.
The taste is very calm and crisp with a juicy mouthfeel.
I have the impression that the aroma is better at room temperature than chilled, and the flavor comes out well.
The way it is made, leaving a gaseous and slightly effervescent taste, is nothing short of amazing.
Juwak -> umami -> bitterness -> alcohol -> bitterness
The end of the drink is clear, light, and astringent.
It is calm for an unfiltered unpasteurized sake, but you can taste the fresh flavor and the roundness and umami that has developed after the bottle has been aged for a while.
It gives the impression of the astringency and bitterness of smelling dead leaves just after the leaves have fallen from the trees, an expression of autumn.
The astringency, like bitterness and pungency, is a very mature taste.
It is slightly amber because it has been aged.
Thanks to the aging process, it has become an "dirty" sake that can be served with robust food.
It is better to drink with miso dishes than salt dishes. Miso grilled mushrooms, miso grilled autumn salmon, mackerel miso, miso stew, and miso soup.
Mackerel miso, miso stew, etc,
When you put it in your mouth, it has a moderate acidity and spiciness, and its umami spreads on your palate.
The sharpness is good and the beautiful umami spreads moderately.
It is a raw sake, but it is not heavy, so you will not get tired of drinking it. I drank too much cold and ran out before I could try heating it up, but it has a good acidity, so it would be good lukewarm as well.
The taste is slightly dry with moderate acidity, followed by a beautiful umami.
It has a good sharpness, and the lingering aftertaste is pleasantly umami.
It is a raw sake, but it does not feel heavy, so you will not get tired of drinking it. Thanks to this, I drank it too cold and forgot to try heating it up, but since it has a certain amount of acidity, it would be good lukewarm as well.
When you open the screw cap, it is so tight that the whole crown flies off.
As expected, it is good when pumped directly from the bottle.
The first Sakuyabi I drank was a Miyamanishiki brewed with No. 14 yeast.
Right after the bottle was opened, it tasted and felt like drinking a Ramune, with a lot of carbon dioxide bubbles in the glass.
It is fruity and delicious.

It has been a while since I have had a bottle of Sakiyami from the Takamusu Shuzo brewery in my hometown of Nakanojo-machi, Gunma Prefecture.
Our first encounter was with Koyama Shoten, and this second bottle was purchased at a liquor store we stopped by when we went back home about two months ago.
The specs are the same as the last time we drank it, a Junmai Ginjo Naokumi-Arabashiri. There were several other different specs, so I had a hard time deciding, but I chose this pink label that impressed me the first time I drank it.
I peeled off the sticker warning me to open the bottle, and as I was opening the bottle, I heard a "pop" and the bottle almost flew out of the bottle. It remained in my hand because I had not finished sealing it, but if I had sealed it all at once, it would have flown away somewhere.
It is almost transparent pale yellow with a slightly thickened texture. The fine bubbles show off its freshness. When you drink it, it has a rich sweetness and acidity. It has a fresh mouthfeel with a slight gassy sensation. The second half of the bottle has a firm bitterness, and the sharpness is perfect. There are no unpleasant tastes, so you can face the taste head-on without thinking about anything difficult.
As I thought the first time I drank it, I feel it is one of the most delicious sake for my personal taste, without any prejudice.
Good evening, Hori 😃.
Sakiyami! I haven't come across it yet 🥲I saw your review and it looks like it could be sweet 😍I'll have to look for it again 😙‼️
Thank you for your comment, Jay & Nobby 😊.
I hope there will be more distributors of Sakiyami.
It has a strong sweetness, but the bitterness in the latter half of the taste is very strong, so it's hard to get tired of drinking it!
An exchange with chikumo 😁.
Thanks for everything 😆.
Hazurra no sakayami ✨👍.
Light sweetness and chili 😁.
Great with a meal or on its own 👍
or on its own 👍
On the way back from visiting Omae Station in Gunma Prefecture on my fourth Seishun 18 ticket, I stopped by Nakanojo Station and purchased this at the nearby Square Sake Shop. It is located in a residential area, and without a map, I would never have been able to find it. I bought a bottle of Sakiyami's pink label because of the Nakanojo location.
Unlike the previous sake, this one did not have a gaseous taste, but the flavor itself was still delicious, with the same strong sweetness. I wonder if there is a liquor store near me that sells it.
There is nothing around the Omae station, my destination, so I was surprised to see more than a dozen people getting off at the time of my visit, even though it is supposed to be only for the train riders. I was surprised to see about a dozen people getting off at the time of my visit, though almost all of them turned around and got off at the Naganoharakusatsuguchi area.
Good evening, Mr. Freelancer Ichiyo Otoko 😃.
Sakiyami-san! I went to the liquor store where I thought it was sold on the weekend 🤗but...they were sold out and I didn't get it 😓I guess I'll have to go to Gunma 🤔.
But I don't like too sweet 😆.
Hello, Jay & Nobby!
I would be very grateful if you could provide a list of distributors on your site, but I wonder if there are any in Chiba....
I think it is quite sweet, so it may not be to J&N's taste ^^;.
An exchange with chikumo 😁.
Thanks again 😆.
It's an orange label.
I wonder if it will be autumn or something 🤔.
It's so soft and tasty.
It's got a nice flavor to it
It has a calm schwarziness to it
Light acidity and bitterness in the last ✨👍
Wonderfully delicious 😆.
I mean...
I've heard a few people say that KahayoYoku and Sakiyami have similar flavors.
I wonder if they are similar 🤔.
