It has a sensation that spreads in the mouth the moment it enters the mouth. The sake passes down the throat well and is easy to drink, but the flavor that spreads in the mouth remains, so you can also enjoy the lingering taste!
3.5 We were told that it can be enjoyed either cold or hot, so we chose to heat it up.
The taste of rice is definitely evident, and the sake has a great umami flavor.
A refreshing sake that goes well with any meal.
Next time, I would like to try it cold.
Sweet and juicy and pineapple 🍍.
I'm not sure what it is, but it tastes good, but something feels off 🤔.
I'm not sure if I'm a fan of the caproic acid-enhanced ones these days...
I had a pink one with pink letters on it before and it was good, so I was expecting this one too...
Similar to Fukuju's Hyogo-nishiki Nama-zake.
It's fruity, but it's also a bit bitter...
Here is a chart diagram for my own drinking comparison. I am sure some of you will point out that this is not true! I am sure some of you will point this out to me. I would appreciate it if you could tell me.
(My impression after drinking it)
I had wanted to try Kabishin from Okayama, but never had a chance to meet it, but I decided to buy Hiyayogoshi from the autumn sake special at the sake department of Mitsukoshi.
It looks greenish with a slight yellow tinge. The nose has a strong cemedine aroma. In the mouth, the taste of banana is felt on the tongue while the smell of alcohol pierces the nose. There is no stimulation. I had a feeling that after a week or two it would lose its edge and change drastically.
After a few days of drinking, the cemedine and alcohol smells are gone, as expected, and the taste has changed to a mellow, round, and delicious mouthfeel.

Today's dish
Steamed Clams with Sake ✨
Sake that I bought in the summer and kept in the fridge 🍶.
I want to brew sake by purifying my body and mind.
Rejoice in a beautiful heart = Kabishin".
With a clean, beautiful and straight heart ✨.
The aroma is also mild.
It is a little more vanilla-like than the previous one.
The nose has a slight apricot and citrus peel flavor.
The texture is smooth with a gentle sweetness.
The taste is in harmony with the acidity and moderate rice flavor.
It was served cold, but is recommended to be served at room temperature or warmed.
It is said to bring out the thickness of the rice. I would like to try it.
Degree of preference 3.5/5
The first hiyaoroshi of the year!
As expected, it has a mild sweetness.
The aroma and throat feeling does not feel like hiyaoroshi, but it is delicious with a smooth mouthfeel.
My favorite ★★★☆☆☆☆
Living in the Hokuriku area, we don't often see sake from Okayama Prefecture.
This is the first time I have had this sake, and it is extremely tasty and umami. The slight acidity gives it a nice flavor. I would like to repeat it, but they don't sell it....
I am very happy to find that many of the sakes I have been buying lately are umaguchi.
