Yamashiroya's standard is a hi-iru sake, which is just plain light. Light. Dry. It's like plain yogurt well dissolved in water. It's like water but not water... It's a strange sake that has no characteristics, no hooks, and on the contrary, is very sharp.
It's a direct-draft version of the same type of sake, but whether it's the recent Yamashiroya, Naokumi, or Nama, the seasonal sake is becoming a sake with proper characteristics and taste. However, it is a year-round product, and it is Yamashiroya's Standard Class, so I bought it because I wanted to drink something like that once in a while!
What's that? It has an aroma and taste! Is this the standard of Yamashiroya? It is a modern dry sake that is easy to drink and very tasty.
I have a feeling that this is not what I was looking for in a Yamashiroya standard, but it is so delicious that my heart is shaking.
I don't know how to interpret it. I'm confused, but it's so delicious! It's similar to Amami, which has recently become my favorite.
I would like to meet Hi-iri somewhere, but I will continue to watch it as a very satisfying sake. It was delicious. I am very impressed. By the way, it is softer and sweeter than Kanenaka Dai-harakuchi.
