Ugh - physical condition 🤣.
It's nicer than I thought it would be!
I spent an amazing amount of time turning it upside down! It seems like japanning increases the area exposed to the air and makes it easier to activate!
A little late early summer sake 🍶😊🍉 label caught my eye to take home 🚶🏼➡️🚶🏼➡️ Uetate has a refreshing ginjo aroma. It has a little bit of a refreshing alcoholic aroma. But it's like it's a good thing and there's watermelon 🍉 in the back 🤔🤔🤔It has the same alcoholic overtone and sweetness when you drink it, with a strong distinctive bitterness. There is no gassy feeling and it is refreshing but overall it is hard. The bitterness remains in all the athetes🤣On the second day, the bitterness softens and it becomes easier to drink. It might be better to leave it longer. Marinated prosciutto ham with cream cheese, grilled salmon with crispy skin ◎Green curry ◯
I'm so glad I bought the label 🍉 I'm so glad summer sake is out there. ☺️
The taste is properly sake, but it really tastes like watermelon in the aftertaste!
Light, slightly sweet with a sake level of +/- 0.

Mellow and thick" and "extra thick nigori"....perfect words to catch me.
Milky and sour aroma. Yogurt from the smell. There is also a slight cheese element.
The taste is exactly what you would expect from a drinkable yogurt. It has a good balance of sweetness and sourness, which is exactly what I like. The alcohol content is low at 10%, and the bitterness characteristic of sake can hardly be felt, so it can be drunk in large gulps. It's so good!
I can't help but wonder how such a flavor can be produced using only rice and no dairy products. Sake is fun after all. Thank you again.
Here are some extras.
The label also has a big impact: it depicts two gorillas, two gorillas and a gori🦍🦍🦍... I couldn't help but chuckle at the pun.
