They call it tayagarasu. I drank it for the first time, and it is a unique sake. It does not seem to be popular with everyone, but it is very Nara-style sake.

If CORE SERIES is the result of a change of master brewer and a new style of brewing, then this is the same Yatagarasu that has been brewed for a long time. This is indeed the image of Yatagarasu.
Sake! The aroma of barley straw is a relief. It has a rich and deep flavor.
It is said to be a cross between Yamadanishiki and Gin-no-sato based on Rohafu, the first sake brewing rice developed by Nara Prefecture.
It was said to be somewhere between dry and sweet. ...... It was sweet! The slight sourness that shows up on the palate is hard to resist. The top aroma also has a hint of plum.
It is made with Gin-no-sato.
It was said to be dry, but ...... found it to be sweet! The top aroma is slightly rose-scented, somewhere between peach and plum with a slightly high acidity.
It has a pear-like aroma, and when served cold, it tastes dry and refreshing, while at room temperature it tastes thick and dry with a hint of tanginess 🤔I'm using heshiko as a snack, but it goes well with it ✨.
It looks modern but it tastes totally classic 💡.
I think it would also go well with warmed sake 🍶.
