We received our second bottle of Snowman this season.
Like the summer Kabutomushi, this is the second of three bottles that I prepared to drink one each month for the three months of the season.
At the time of the first bottle, I wrote that I could not tell the difference from last year's Yukidaruma, but with this second bottle, I was able to capture the difference.
I could vividly recall last year's Yukidaruma when I drank a bottle of Urasato's light nigori that was opened the day before. The light and refreshing taste of Urasato, despite its appearance, was very similar to that of last year's Yukidaruma.
In comparison, the Yukidaruma I drank today had a thicker or deeper flavor. It was clearly different from last year's Snowman. It was clearly different from last year's impression.
My image of Sengoku is that it is super light-bodied, but this year's Snowball is not that light, but has a strong and deep flavor.
Personally, I prefer this year's Yukidaruma, but if this trend is due to the effect of the use of the sake as a raw yeast yeast, I wonder how Kabutomushi, which is known for its refreshing lightness, will turn out.
We are still looking forward to the first year of Edo-bari.

Hi Hori, good evening 🌙
How 😳The Urasato nigori and last year's Yukidaruma are very similar! I didn't get a snowball last year so I don't know, but when I open this year's I'll try to remember Urasato when I drink it 😊.

Thank you for your comment, Kotaro!
Of course the taste itself is different, but I felt it is very similar in terms of lightness.
I think of last year's snowman as a more refreshing version of this year's snowman 😊.
