Lately I've been drinking sake from Nara, Gunma, Nagano, Gifu, and other sea-less prefectures (as it happens 😅). So this time I got Yatagarasu 🐦‍⬛ from Kitaoka Honten, an old and powerful brewery in Nara. Yatagarasu is a classic type of sake like Yoshino cedar barrel sake, but recently it has been replaced and this one was made by a 30 year old master brewer 😳. The taste is really Yatagarasu? The flavor is slightly sweet, soft, and modern. The alcohol content is light at 12%, making it easy to drink and recommended for beginners. It was especially good on the second day of opening the bottle👍. It may not be enough for those who prefer the classics, but it was a satisfying bottle for me😇. This one is from Yamadanishiki, and there was a similar label that used Koshihikari, but I wonder how it tastes 🤔.

Hi Nemuchi 😃 I don't know if this will be the mainstream Yatagarasu, but maybe they will expand the variation with the traditional classic type. Anyway, I couldn't imagine the taste from the label 😁.
