We compared almost all of the different lots of Abeno's standard junmai sake. According to prior information (according to the manager), vol. 3 has a strong taste (sweetness) and vol. 2 is dry.
On the first day, it was almost the same as vol.3 and I laughed. I thought there was no difference.
Vol.2 is the same as vol.3, the aroma is mild and there is a hint of alcohol, but you hardly feel it when you drink it.
The mouthfeel is the same as vol.3, and it is a combination of the best of both worlds. It has a lot of energy, but it is very cohesive.
The sweetness is balanced by a citrus-like acidity, making this a gem that allows you to enjoy the goodness of sake with a focus on umami.
...what's wrong with that, on the second day it's suddenly spicy! I was a little surprised at how it changed like a different sake in one day. But it's also delicious! Apart from the spiciness, it is light and dry like Shoryu Hourai, which I drank recently, but with a strong umami flavor.
I couldn't drink it on the third day, but on the fourth day, the sweetness was gusto, and this trend was the same on the fifth day.
I have to admit I liked the Abeno classic Junmai series too much! I bought more of both vol.2 and vol.3 since they were still on sale lol.

Good evening, Mr. Hiraccio!
Of course, many of the parts are the same, even in different lots, but there are different nuances, so it's great to enjoy them!
I'm looking forward to seeing more of Abe in the future!
