The aroma is chocolatey, characteristic of old sake. It has a peculiar taste when opened, but as time goes by, the peculiar taste disappears and the aroma becomes mild and easy to drink with a gorgeous taste.
Gorgeous fruity aroma like a faint peach. The perfect balance of acidity, umami, and bitterness makes it easy to drink. The No. 4 bottle was empty as a matter of course! LOL!
This sake is a definite repeat purchase!
The aroma is subdued. The wine continues to sizzle even after the bottle is opened, as if the fermentation process is continuing uninterruptedly. The mouthfeel is smooth, but there is a slight bitterness in the aftertaste.
Bizen Omachi 33 polished!
Isoamyl type flavor with the round and full taste of Omachi, fruity with acidity and a touch of bitterness...it was truly worthy of the name "Ni-Utsugi" 😁.
Compared to the usually gorgeous fruity type of Harushika, this one had a slightly calmer, classical aroma and taste.
It was quite a strong impression at 17% original alcohol, but when I drank it, I felt it was easy to drink without feeling any alcohol!
However, contrary to the specs, the taste is light, so it is dangerous to get carried away and drink too much 😅.
The aroma is fruity (banana-melon type) and crisp, with a gentle aftertaste and a pleasant trace of gas.
Fukushima has many really good sake, but this one was quite a favorite for me!
The aroma of apples and the taste reminded me of the sourness of apples, yet it was not sweet! It was a strange sensation, but a wonderful sake that made me want to drink it again!
Iwashimizu is still great! 👍

At first I couldn't understand it, but I was impressed by the strange taste that changed as I drank more and more (both in temperature and in taste).

As stated on the label, this sake is well-balanced and delicious.
We were impressed by the technique of this sake, which is gaseous and raw, yet shows various changes with the passage of time in a good way!
Junmai Ginjo Nama Shu made from 100% Aizan from Hyogo Prefecture, with a rice polishing ratio of 50% and 15% alcohol by volume.
This bottle expressed the balance between soft sweetness and exquisite acidity while bringing out the best of Aizan.
The aroma is also gorgeous and wonderful!

There is not much acidity or lingering aftertaste, just a gorgeous, light sweetness that just keeps on going.
