I came back to Japan.
When I open the fridge after returning home and find a bottle of sake like this in there, that alone makes me happy ✨✨.
It is served chilled in a wine glass.
The aroma when the bottle is opened is thick and fleshy, with a slightly rich isoamyl aroma. When you let it air out for a while while turning the glass, the isoamyl type aroma disappears and you can smell the weak ripe aroma and thick acidity in the back of the glass.
In the mouth, the dry, thick acidity surrounds the rice flavor, while at the same time keeping its outline in the mouth. The finish is flowing, clean, and dry.
This is a wonderful wine.
The overall impression is dry, and while the basic tone of the sake is so-called "dry," the umami maintains a crisp outline in the mid-part of the bottle. Beautiful mouthfeel that finally appears in the latter half of the finish.
The overall sense of balance and the careful construction that you will be reminded of later.
It's delicious ✨.
Among all the Omachi I've had so far, this was the sake that was the least "standard Omachi flavor" in a good way.
It made me think once again that sake is not about the rice, but about the construction ✨.
This was fantastic 🍶.

Good evening, Yasusan 😃
Welcome back to Japan😄I'm sure it must have sunk in for you to have Urahyakumon after returning home: ☺️
If you have a chance, I'd like to drink again while talking at length about the influence of the raw rice on the taste, what is sake making, etc. ☺️🍶

Aladdin, good evening 🌙Do you know what sake rice is just by drinking it? I am sometimes asked if I can tell the rice used to make the sake just by drinking it! I am not! 😆😆It's only the sake's structure that changes, the temperature at which it is drunk, and the sake cups. I would love to talk about it while drinking 🍶🍶.

Nemuchi-san, good evening 🌙Thank you ✨No, really, it's been a while since I returned to Japan and I was happy to drink sake that was a little more classical! I see you can still buy New Hatsusakura! I wonder if it's that "donki-style liquor store" 😆.

Yasu-san, good evening 🌛The donkey-like liquor stores in Kyoto that promote Shiga are hard to find products, and the current season's sake is usually still there for a long time, and some are quite old in production year 🤣.

Hi Nemuchi 😃I've heard that story before and I'm really curious about that donkey-like liquor store! I guess it's hard to find products in liquor stores or unexpected aged ones can be done that way! 😆
