NoLo
This is one of the bottles I bought at a certain department store while talking with the brewer of Tamanomitsu about the situation of sake in Corona.
The aroma is like a ripe banana.
The mouthfeel is slightly stimulated by the alcohol. Along with the banana aroma comes the almond smell (and taste) characteristic of Omachi. The taste changes from banana to almond to banana and almond.
When it contains air, the almondiness stands out more than the banana, and sometimes you can feel a sweetness like walnuts.
When swallowing, there is a little alcohol stimulation in the throat, and the flavor of the rice characteristic of Omachi rice remains in the mouth, but it does not feel sticky. As time goes by, the flavor fades, but the aroma lingers on and on, and it goes right through the nose.
It's expensive for a daily drink, but I personally think it's good for an occasional drink because it's tasty enough to be expensive. It's so good that I would recommend it to anyone who doesn't care about money to drink it regularly.
