InoshishiToday I went to a classic Japanese restaurant, with waitress in kimono and small but numerous courses. Unfortunately, due to anti-covid regulations, people who drink alcohol cannot stay longer than 90 minutes (am I the only one who thinks this law is crazy?), so I had little time to enjoy and review th sakè. This one cold is the best, very nice sweet at the correct point with a colorful flavor of Sakura, a little sweet but dry enough to enjoy together the food.

InoshishiThis sakè as you can see in the last picture on the right is very dark, look like a good aged wiski or Brandy!!! The scent has a strong presence of aged, sweet cigar, everything is intense. The flavor at the first impact is round and light, but as all Yamahai has a good deepness and need to some second of patience, and then arrive the good round and intense flavor of aged, an explosion hided for more than 10 years in this bottle. Very very good!

InoshishiFinally I found a very good aged sakè bar. The scent of this sakè has a good presence of aged, for me is similar to the leather but a little more sweet. The flavor is very round not heavy and not light very good balanceed without any spike. Very difficult to describe but it is Awesome!!

InoshishiThis is one of my favourites. Strong and intense aroma, you can recognise a bit of the sake smell, but it also reminds a bit of cheese. The flavour is also impactful, strong, dense and enveloping and balanced overall. For me this is a sake to be savoured on its own, no side snacks needed.

InoshishiThis is my all time favourite Koshu sakè. Thank to this I discovered the new world of Koshu and it's still my favourite Koshu. The flavor is awesome, the tipichal Koshu flavor is present, not light, not heavily, but perfectly balanced and deep. I'm not sure, but I'm a ex-smoker, and the very first time I have associated this flavor to the hand rolled tabacco that I used to smoke.

InoshishiThis is the second sakè from the same brewery today, but this is a Gensyu. 20 degrees, doesn't feel like , but kick hard! The taste dry and very well balanced,. Listening to Master, this year the flavor has changed, before the rice flavor was very strong and not for every one, but now is more gentle. I don't know how was before, but it is very enjoyable for me.

InoshishiThe label says aged 18 years, but the master has storered this sakè for other 4 years, so now it is 22 years old!! Love this kind of sakè, I've been always a fan of aged sakè, but this is one the best I have ever taste. The typical aged flavor has a strong presence with a bit sweetness, for a total roundness.

InoshishiVery aromatic, it reminds me some kind of the sweet scent of Lovegreen flower. The taste is dry and bitter at the right amount. I find it good with dry fruit, like almond.

Inoshishi... From previous post Ambient temperature The red one gain a bit of bitterness and acidity, the aroma entirely become more strong, but maintening a good balance, instead the blue one become very round and more dry and ahs still a stronger flavor. It's incredible how can change completely the flavor depending whom is making the sake using the same identical rice! This was a real good experience to taste different sakè made from the same rice, and also the rice was very soft sweet and very good!
