We obtained it at a point in western Japan!
I was troubled by the variety from Hokuriku to Kyushu, but this time I selected a pure large type of "Katano Sakura" which is rarely seen in the market.
I will enjoy it while reminiscing about the scenery of my trip to Kansai 🍶.
When I opened the bottle and poured it, the aroma was gentle, clear, elegant, and reserved.
The mouthfeel is pure and clean. As you savor it, the sweetness and umami of Yamadanishiki, which gives the impression of grain and freshly cooked rice, spreads gently.
The mellow, concentrated taste of spicy, acidic and astringent aroma emerges. However, it is not too assertive, and the lingering astringent taste is left behind as it is quickly lifted up!
It has the richness of flavor typical of Osaka sake. The richness of flavor typical of Osaka sake and the elegance typical of Jun Dai sake. It is a delicious taste with a pleasant power balance ✨.
We also got Fukuoka's famous sweets at the same time!
I'll be steadily saving up for another trip 🔥.
This week, I had a sudden urge to drink Katano Sakura after reading your post on Sake-no-Wawa, so I hurried to a local liquor store!
So I went to the local liquor store to get a bottle of Katanozakura by Yamano Shuzo this week.
This time it was Aizan!
Let's start with the sake.
First, the aroma. It has a unique aroma!
In the mouth, it has a fruity sweetness that is not too sweet, followed by a bitter taste that slowly fades away.
The lingering taste is a gentle bitterness with a pungent spiciness that is well balanced.
The unique aroma that passes through the nose is also a good match with the flavor. Is this a sake yeast yeast yeast yeast yeast yeast yeast?
It is delicious with a slightly dry and rich taste.
The impression does not change much even if it is served with a meal.
If you warm it up to lukewarm, you can feel the bitterness and the alcohol.
The aroma of rice is very pleasant, and it's a moment that only heated sake can give you.
I can't get enough of the slight fruity flavor.
I drank it over a period of 3 days, but the impression did not change much as time passed, and the taste remained stable.
Good evening, ma-ki 😃.
Katano sakura looks delicious! I haven't had any sake from Osaka yet, so I'll look for Katanozakura next week on my way back from Shin-Osaka after Sannomiya 😁.
Good evening, ma-ki...
Aizan, Junmai, Namahashime...
There are many words that interest me 🤤.
I'm still a beginner🍶 to Kansai sake🔰 so I'm learning a lot 🙇♂️ I want to drink Katanozakura🍶 ❣️
Thank you for your comment, ichiro18!
I haven't been able to drink Osaka sake very often, but it's been a while since I had it and I thought it was a very beautiful sake 😋.
I hope you enjoy your sake activities around Sannomiya 🤗.
Thanks for your comment, Muro!
Lots of fascinating words 😁✨.
I haven't had the chance to try Osaka sake either despite being a local 😅I thought it was a very beautiful sake 😋.
I hope you have a chance to visit 🤗
Good morning, ma-ki-, Yaharikata no sakura looks delicious. I haven't tasted it in Osaka yet, so I'm looking for a chance to meet it here, but I can't seem to find it 😅.
Thank you for your comment, Mr. Studying!
I have not had it for a long time either as an Osaka sake or Katanozakura, and I thought it was a beautiful sake 😋.
I hope you will be able to encounter it too 🤗.
Good morning, ma-ki-!
I like "Katanozakura" too 🥰.
I've never actually had it at home, so I'm aiming to take some home next time I'm in Osaka, but I'm also interested in "Hyakutenmauten" brewed by Yamano Shuzo and Citizen's University.
Thanks for your comment Nao888!
I understand - I haven't had a drink in Osaka in a while after seeing Sakewa's post, but I usually tend to pass it up 😅.
You should try drinking at home slowly once, Akirika 😊.
Thank you for your comment, Gyve!
Thank you for saying you like our local sake 😊.
Oh, Hundred Ten Manten 🎵I'm very curious about the sake in collaboration with the university 😲.
I look forward to your posts 😋.
Hi, ma-ki-🐦.
Sounds delicious ὂ ❣️ I actually haven't had any Osaka sake at home 💦 I'd love to try Kata no Sakura 😊.
I'd love to try the kata no sakura 😊! I think I'll try it in my air conditioned room 😁.
Thanks for your comment, Pon!
It's been a while since I've had it, but it made me realize once again how great it is that they made such a beautiful sake 😋.
I look forward to your review of my first Osaka home drinking experience with Katanozakura 🤗.
Uemoten Sake Hanpukai: Limited Sake.
Maybe too much time has passed since the quintessence...
Sweet body for a kata no sakura, but bitter chocolate at the end. It's also alcoholic, so one glass or so is just right.
Purchased at Yamano Shuzo's brewery opening. Lightly cloudy. The aroma is light and refreshing, and the taste is good. If you drink only the supernatant, it is a little unsatisfactory, but if you drink it with nigori, it is good.
It is a little spicy and tasty, and it goes down your throat nicely.
Junmai Unfiltered Nama Sake
It is a combination of all my favorite kinds of sake.
I was getting a little tired of the freshness of the recent past, so I thought it would be good to go back to my original favorite sake.
Katano is Katano's sake, isn't it?
It was delicious.
Second today.
Tasted and purchased in Osaka. The power character of this pure rice unfiltered raw sake is enough to make one drool. The banana-like aroma, the fresh and refreshing slight effervescence, followed by the slightly sweet but rich umami of Aizan, and a firm sharpness. Very tasty...I would like to support this small brewery that seems to be brewing with a focus on original sake.
