Overall 9 (out of 10)
I've been a fan of Yama-san ever since a colleague of mine gave it to me 😃.
The green label recommended by Jay & Nobby was not available.
I was able to get the yellow label instead😃.
It is delicious ❣️😋
The taste is slightly different from the previous three bottles, with a sweetness and a bit of spiciness in the mouth.
It is a bit spicy with a sweetness in the mouth and then it disappears leaving a lingering taste that is somewhere between bitter and spicy without any peculiarity👍.
Here are my impressions from a previous comparison
The red Aizan is the most fruity.
The latter half has a peculiar, unrefined, miscellaneous taste sensation.
The purple Kinmon-nishiki is a little less sweet and tasty, and the bitterness without peculiarities follows in the second half.
And it has a good sharpness.
Hitokochochi Silver is
The first half is the same as Kinmon-nishiki, and the second half has a slight spiciness without any peculiarity.
It was served chilled.

Good evening, HinaHanaMama 😃.
All of them were delicious 😋❣️ but the number one is the red Aizan which is slightly sweeter in my opinion 😃.
The difference between the two is minimal.
The yellow one this time is the best balance ‼️
This one is good too 👍 honestly it's hard to say which is better 🧐.

Good evening, shinsaku 3 😀
My sake of the day was purple Kinmon-nishiki 😀.
I bought it at a liquor store in Ueda because it's not easy to get in Kansai, but it would be nice if it were a little easier to get 😀.

Good evening, Yasbay 😃.
I see we both happened to have a Yamasan by chance: ❗️😃👍
There is only one store in Saitama and I think it is hard to buy 🙁 .
Actually, this yellow label was purchased from a sake friend of mine who got it in Meguro, Tokyo 🧐.

Good morning, Jay & Nobby 😃.
Thank you 😊
It's not as dry as it sounds, but I think it's tasty enough to fall into the international J &N standards 😃.
