There are many brands that I have been interested in but never bought because the timing was not right. This time, I was blessed with such an opportunity to try Loman. Let's start with the standard sake!
The aroma is very fruity and gorgeous, with a ripe sweet aroma like bananas in the air. The very clear soft water conveys a mellow sweetness like melon, a slight freshness, and the sweetness and umami of rice. It is so full of happiness in the mouth, yet it has a light body that makes it go down smoothly. It was a wonderful sake, full of romance in every sip. Thank you again for this evening's sake!
This is from a liquor store in a neighboring town.
I chose this bottle because I wanted to drink a draft sake.
It has a strong matured aroma, and when you put it in your mouth, you are overwhelmed with a combination of sweetness, acidity, and umami.
It has a strong matured aroma, and when you put it in your mouth, sweetness, acidity, and umami come together and rush toward you. It's just like "Nama-nara-sake!
Thank you for the treat!

Thank you for your comment.
I often visit the Aizu area on my trips.
Higashiyama Onsen, Ashinomaki Onsen, Ouchi-juku, Kitakata Ramen,
And there is a lot of good sake.
Aizu is the best!
Loman Junmai Daiginjo Fukunoka 50
Rating 4.4
Rice polishing ratio: 50% (Fukunoka and Himenomochi from Fukushima Prefecture), Alcohol: 15%.
A fluffy sweet smell. It is sweet, but has a nice crispness. Of course, it has a well-balanced flavor and richness that is typical of Loman. This sake is brewed with Fukushima Prefecture's "Fukunoka" rice polished to 50% for the koji and kake rice, Utsukushima Yume yeast, and glutinous rice in a four-stage brewing process.
It is a mild, but moderately bitter, mid-meal sake.
It is not labeled hiyaoroshi, but it seems to be an autumn sake. So it is a solid type of sake. I thought it would be sweet because it is a lomang, but it was surprisingly dry.
A sweet aroma in the mouth
Tightly packed flavor
Clean aftertaste with no aftertaste
The clean aftertaste makes it easy to drink with any other snacks without disturbing the taste buds.
When served with the seared tongue with wasabi soy sauce, the wasabi and the saltiness of the soy sauce together make it taste rather sweet.
Fresh, clear, sweet and bitter, relatively clean.
The bitterness is not so noticeable, so it is both easy to match and easy to drink, and tasty!
However, people who don't like bitterness may be a little bothered by it.
Hi Abi, good evening.
I got this one too 🎵
I had an image of Loman as being sweet, but it is an easy to drink sake with a strong bitter taste 😋.
I'm looking forward to my first Loman 🤗.
Good evening...
I think you have an impression that Lomang is sweet, but this one is not so sweet and I think you can drink it lighter than usual.
But as you wrote, the bitterness comes quite a bit.
