Third one today. This one is umami! I can't explain how good it is. I can't explain it, so I'll just use a quote from an internet search. Yamada-ho is correctly read as "Yamadabo". Yamadaho is a rare variety of rice that is the mother of Yamada-Nishiki, which is considered the best sake rice (by the way, the father's side is Short Stick Watari), and is an ancient rice that was cultivated in the Meiji era. It leaves a refreshing taste with a clean and crisp aftertaste. Because the rice grains are smaller and less fatty than Yamada-Nishiki, it generally has a slightly transparent taste with a softer acidity, but the flavor of the rice is powerful, and the pleasant sweetness lingers with a fruity aroma unique to Yukino Kayasha. The slightly strong acidity tightens up the overall flavor and creates a well-balanced sake. It is a superb limited edition sake that offers a taste of Yamadaho's world, which is somewhat simple and refined. This is a small-batch junmai ginjo made from a single variety, which is rare for Snow Kayasha, and the brewer's passion for the precious Yamadaho is particularly strong, so as with "Bishu no Sekkei," the shipping route is specified only for dealers with whom they have a trustworthy relationship.
