I opened a bottle of Senkyu's Yukidaruma on a summer day with a high temperature of 28 degrees Celsius, which is unusual for Tokyo in March. This is the second bottle of Yukidaruma since I drank it after New Year's. It was made in November 2023, so it has been more than four months since it was produced.
It was produced in November 2023, so it was opened more than 4 months after production and exactly 2 months after purchase.
I felt exactly the same way about the first bottle, it looks sweet but it is not sweet. I can't help but imagine it tastes like sweet sake from its appearance, so I was surprised that it is not that sweet.
The sweetness is restrained while the umami is strong, and the acidity and bitterness make it refreshing to drink despite the strong umami. Moreover, it has a freshness due to its slight effervescence. While it has a unique character, it also has the nostalgia of being able to match with a wide range of meals, both Japanese and Western.
The taste may be based on a precise calculation that is hard to imagine from the loose atmosphere of the label.
This is the last of this season's Yukidaruma. We look forward to seeing what the next season's Yukidaruma will be like.

Hi Hori, good evening 😃
Some people let the snowman ☃️ lie in bed for a year 😅 seems like it's better to drink it as soon as possible 😊.
We skipped this season, but after a long time I think I'll drink it next season 🤗

Hi Jay & Nobby 😃
I actually meant to drink it earlier, but I had to put it down to compare it with Hello World 💤I'm looking forward to next season's Snowman now, as I hear the taste changes every year, not only for Snowman, but for all alcoholic beverages 😊.
