Yogurt and minty.
Rice aroma somewhat reminiscent of sweet and sour.
The entrance is clear and light,
The rice and grain-like milky aroma naturally swells up.
The aroma is citrus peel and pineapple-like sourness and fragrance.
It is unique, yet cohesive.
4/5 stars for my taste.
Yamashiroya Seiran
Rated 4.3
Rice: Gohyakumangoku, Rice polishing ratio: 70%, Yeast: Niigata yeast G74, Alcohol percentage: 15.0% (unblended), Sake meter: +9, Acidity: 1.9
Amino acidity: 1.3
While maintaining a clear sake quality and a neat balance that looks great in food, the choice to use 70% polishing brings a fullness of rice and a natural umami flavor. This is supported by a gentle yet powerful acidity. The sake level and acidity are high and well balanced, but not harsh. Lemon-lime taste, suitable for summer. As time goes by, the body increases and it can also have an orange flavor.
Yamashiroya and the Yamaoka Family🍶.
Outside drinking review,
I drank 3 kinds and ended up posting 2😅.
My first Yamashiroya was nigori sake!
It was freshly sipped and still alive and well👍!
Rice juice with a lot of flavor ✨.
Yamaoka family also full of flavor 🍜.
Back to the special miso 😋.
Long time no post!
Sweet or spicy? I prefer the dry one.
But I felt a strong umami flavor and drank it all up.
I drank it all up,
Sake from Niigata is delicious!
Sparkling.
The aroma is fresh.
Clear acidity jumps in.
It is neither sweet nor spicy.
But you can feel a bit of spiciness and wonder if it is a bit sweet 😊.
The astringent taste oozes out slightly at the back of the tongue.
It's crispy.
There is a slight taste of rice on the tongue: ☺️
Seiran ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Polishing ratio: undisclosed ALC 15
The aroma is subtle, and when you take a sip, you will feel a light stimulation on your tongue, followed by sourness and bitterness.
It is a slightly dry sake with a sharp taste. It is the perfect sake to go with mayonnaise-flavored snacks like tonight's drink.
