Is it more acidic?
Sweetness is less personal and more than light DRY.

Yoohee-san and Yatagarasu⑤.
I wanted to drink something different, so I chose this one!
Aged sake in cask with raw sake is not so good 😁.
16% Sake degree +6, Polishing ratio 60%, Association 701 yeast
Yoshino cedar? The wood aroma is amazing!
It smells like wood from a home improvement store 😅.
No sense of maturity. Maybe the wood aroma drowns it out?
This was 1280 yen for 90ml, so I would have been better off drinking a regular CLASSIC set 💦.
I've had Yatagarasu in the past, and some of them were off-flavored and subtle, but this time they were all delicious 😋.
After this, Yoohee and I stopped by a liquor store in Rokko-michi and went home.

Yoohee-san and Yatagarasu④
We drank a little of Bodhi yeast which Mr. Yoohee asked for!
15% Sake degree -10% Polishing ratio 70%.
Not too strong and easy to drink!
Yuhaesan was surprised that it wasn't too strong 🤣.
It's not too sweet for the sake's alcohol content, which is typical of Bodaihashi sake.
The label is different from the Bodai Hashiroshi we had at Shorekji, but I wonder if it's a renewal or a different product 🤔.
I think the one I had at Shorekji was sweeter.

PURPLE, a new product in the CORE series
The new product was unveiled at the Yatagarasu Fair before it goes on sale.
So, only the back label is available.
Made with Yoshino's Nanaro, 60% rice polishing ratio, 15% alcohol.
Other specs are unknown (maybe it was written in the store?).
Sake made with Nara's new sake brewing rice, Nanaro.
It is the only one of the three types of sake that has just been pressed.
It was said to be dry, but it was indeed dry!
It is spicier than the other two, and has a clean and sharp taste.
Maybe because it's freshly pressed, it feels much lighter than the other two, even though it's a freshly pressed sake.
I wanted to ask Mr. Natsume many questions, but he was explaining to the Yatagarasu drinkers one after another 💦.

Following RED, let's take a look at BLUE, which was posted by Kotori the other day.
Yoshino Gin-no-sato Polishing ratio 60%, Sake degree 0, Yeast No.7
Slightly sweet, bitter, and complex.
It tastes a little sweet, bitter and complex, which is the opposite of RED.
I think Hirupeko would like BLUE better 🤔.
According to Touji Natsume, RED and BLUE are sakes that were stored at low temperature in the brewery.
He said the new sake will be available around July.

Yoohee-san and Yatagarasu (1)
I posted a picture of a sake I found on my way out to a LINE group, and Yoohee-san replied, "Where are you now? Yoohee-san replied, "Where are you?
We went to Asano Sake Shop in Sannomiya, where the Yatagarasu Fair was being held.
I was originally going to buy the CORE series but decided to drink it inside 😁.
Since we were there, we ordered the CORE series set!
The sake lees cream cheese cassoulet that came with the set was really good 😋.
I was curious about the RED that Hirupeko-san was drinking!
The sake-like label was designed by Toji Natsume himself!
Yoshino Yamadanishiki 15%, Sake degree -5, Polishing ratio 60%, Ogawa yeast
Finally got to drink it 😆.
It's gorgeous, a little refreshing and fruity.
I thought it would taste heavier, but it is beautiful and easy to drink.
Mr. Toji Natsume, who was visiting the store, told us how hard it is to grow rice in Yoshino!
He said it is especially hard to grow Yamada-Nishiki because of its long ear length!

bouken-san, good morning ☀I was enviously watching Yatagarasu's visit to Sannomiya store. I would have loved to hear about Natsume Toji's story, and I would have loved to hear how it compares to brother bouken's blue 😊.

Hi bouken!
It's great to hear various stories from the toji at the event... The label was so cool that I cut it out from 🐦⬛ and put it on my helmet for my own use 🤭oh, what? There is a PURPLE sake bottle on the far right 😳

Hello Miss Peco ☀☀☀☀!
Mr. Natsume explained everything about the brewery and the CORE series to us 😊.
The BLUE was also delicious, different type from the RED 😋.

Hello, Kotori-san.
It was very crowded, partly because Mr. Touji was here💦.
The design looks like it would fit if you put it on your helmet. 🏍️ I wonder if it would be safe in the rain or something?
PURPLE you noticed 😁.

Sake from Nara. I bought it because of the name. You can feel the umami of rice. But the aftertaste flows nicely. I paired it with beef and burdock tsukudani (food boiled down in soy sauce), but it did not lose its power. This is a sake that I would like to keep on hand on a regular basis.

It has a thick Bodaiyuan-like sweetness, richness, and depth of flavor. Foreigners are packed with sushi at a standing bar in Nara

I was attracted by the coolness of the label...
CORE SERIES🟥🟦 welcome🤗
The other day, Hirupeko-san was drinking RED and it was a very intriguing review 🤭.
I heard this one is made with Gin-no-sato from Yoshino in Nara prefecture and brewed in Yamahai style.
It has an aroma of young banana, a faint astringent taste, apricot, milky sweet and sour taste, and a savory sweetness like cotton candy or pomegranate, with a hint of minerality.
The sweet and sour taste is moderate, and it is easy to drink with a clean aftertaste 😚.
Lunch was Japanese pasta at Jollipa 😋.
I think it will be a while before I can try cold pasta...

Hi, Hanapin-san 😃Have you been training too long? I'm sorry 🥹.
It was so hot that I asked for cold pasta, but I guess I was a little too early 😅The dish was filled with seafood and tasted better than I expected 😋.

Good evening, Kotori-san. I see you drank Blue Label! I'll have to buy the blue one too, after reading your review! Your review makes me think that I have to buy the blue one too 😊.

Hi Hirupeko, good morning 🐥.
I was able to buy 🟥🟦 at the ibi lottery sale at a certain sake store 🤫🤫 It tasted like a slightly darker version of Nanbonjari Namahashi 😋🚙 I wish I could go buy it by car 🚙!

あらいぐま
Purchased at the Kitaoka Honten sales outlet on the Yoshinoyama approach.
This is a limited edition and is not sold at the brewery.
There were two types of the limited edition, but we bought this one, which had a stronger flavor.
It is a delicious sake with a strong taste, and it does not lose out to a strong Tsumami.
I was able to make a good purchase.

Yatagarasuコアシリーズ RED
ひるぺこ
This time it is Yatagarasu core series RED label.
This sake is produced in Yoshino, Nara Prefecture.
It is a new series of Yatagarasu and is made entirely from rice grown in Nara Prefecture,
RED is a gorgeous Yamadanishiki,
RED is gorgeous with Yamada Nishiki, while BLUE is rich with Gin no Sato's Yamahai.
The label was also designed by the toji, and is a smart yatagarasu (three-legged crow).
Serve cold.
It has a greenish crystal color.
The aroma is of strawberries with a hint of sweetness at the top.
The mouthfeel is a bit creamy, and the sweet and sour taste of fresh and thick strawberry jam spreads gorgeously.
The taste is soft and bitter, and it finishes with a clear aftertaste of sweetness that contains juicy strawberries.
A gorgeous, juicy sake with crimson ripe 🍓 like the label.
It has a juicy taste that is different from the Yatagarasu so far, and is sure to be popular.
It was worth the drive to Nara to get it 😊.
I should have brought Blue back too💦.

Good evening, Peco.
I'd like to try the core series, but I have to go to Nara to buy it 😅.
I also missed the Yatagarasu fair in Asano 😓.

Good evening, brother bouken. I was so happy to get it 😳I went out the moment I saw the arrival information on instagram, but I got on the wrong highway on the way back and my ETC card expired💧, so I was a bit nervous on the way back.

Hi Hirupeko 😊
Thanks for your hard work in buying 🚙💦The label design that is not like sake caught my attention 👀I'm waiting for the same 🟥🟦 in the year of production March 🤭I'm expecting it to have a juicy taste!

All-you-can-drink sake for 30 minutes🍶 at Nara Antenna Shop
I chose it because the label is spring 🌸
It is sweet and delicious 😚.
It has a deep sweetness that sinks in slowly.
It has a thicker taste and a heavy texture 😁.

The color is yellow. It smells like Yamahai and Namahashi and has a hint of acidity. The acidity and sweetness spread on the palate, but the mouthfeel is very light and seems to disappear in the mouth. You can taste the umami. I like the taste. I think it is best to drink it at room temperature. The bitterness is strong. I don't know why it has this fluffy feeling, but it is delicious. I guess it has a good balance.
I had a few drinks other than Yatagarasu at a standing bar, and was surprised at the high level of sake in Nara.

Aromatic and mild on the palate
Easy to drink with a sense of rice flavor
I agree with the concept.

⭐️4.0
The aroma was described as young banana-like, and it is indeed like that.
The taste is mildly sour and gently resets the palate.
The sourness is more distinctive than that of RED in the same series.
I have the impression that many sake breweries in Nara and Yoshino have strong acidity characteristics.
