Overall 6 (out of 10)
This is the first sake I received (thanks)
This is the first time I have received this sake.
According to the website
According to their website, "Mitsuo Yamakawa is an ambitious unit formed by four breweries in Yamagata Prefecture.
Despite the soft aroma of rice
Despite the soft rice aroma, I got the impression that it was mainly bitter and spicy.
The lingering spiciness lingers on the tongue.
For me, a lover of sweet and savory taste, it was a little bit in my weak point,
but I thought it would be a good taste for those who like it 😅.
It was served chilled 😃.

Good evening, shinsaku3!
Mitsuo, you were the talk of the town, weren't you? So I saw your post on Sake no Wa, but I thought it didn't seem to be my cup of tea 🤣 I was right, shinsaku3's review has convinced me 😅.

Good morning, shinsaku3 😃!
It's great that 4 well-known breweries form a unit and keep going for 10 years! Mitsuo Yamakawa-san has only had one outing 😅I'm sure there are many fans waiting for it every year 😌.

Good morning, HinaHanaMama 😃.
I have a slightly different opinion of this sake than you 😅.
Maybe it changes again depending on the temperature you drink it at or something, but I didn't like the taste 😅.

Good morning, shinsaku3 🐥.
I only drank it at the end of my drinking ho, so it was very helpful 😆🙏.
I like the fact that it's called "Unit" and this label👍.

Good evening Jay & Nobby😃.
It sure is amazing that it's been going on for 10 years.
Maybe each brewery has its own characteristics.
Nagano's Unit 59 brewery also had its own characteristics.
I will try to drink different brands again 😃.

Good evening, Pon 😃.
Thank you 😊
For some reason, this label of Mitsuo's is soothing to stare at 🤣.
I'm a bit interested in other versions of such Mitsuo-san 😅.
