Sake with a robust rice flavor typical of Hyogo. The extremely pure rice-like rice flavor and the lactic acidity derived from Yamahai are well balanced, and while the taste is firm, it has a dessert-like sensuality that makes it easy to drink. There is almost no fruity aroma derived from the popular yeast, but a soft and fluffy sweetness like that of white dumplings or apricot bean curd. The acidity is moderate, but the flavor has a core, so it can be paired with umami-rich snacks. However, if you enjoy it with appetizers with strong lactic acidity such as rice-bran paste, tofu, or cheese before a meal, you will be able to get drunk even more comfortably. It would be an overstatement to say that this sake embodies the orthodox evolution of traditional sake, but I would like to give it that much praise. Apricot pudding, white bean dumplings, mushrooms Lime, Hinoki (Japanese cypress)

The aroma of Yamadanishiki is clear and easy to recognize, although I was too drunk to detect the fine aroma. I like that there is no deliberate ginjo aroma. I was impressed by the balance between the not-too-strong mouthfeel and the strong flavor, which is typical of low-alcohol sake breweries in Nara.

Firm acidity. Junmai-like aroma of rice and fruity taste of nama-zake. The impression is that it is so robust that it will not be defeated even with strong food. Cooked rice, yogurt, muscat, lime

Although it does not have a specific name, the first impression is of a full rice flavor and sweetness. The soft sweetness is followed by a light aftertaste that quickly fades away, which is typical of Niigata. Cooked rice, lime, cypress, mushrooms Slightly white peach and melon

The first impression is of mellowness typical of junmai, with a full-bodied sweetness and richness. The acidity is low. Despite its robust flavor, the lingering aftertaste is crisp and clean, which is typical of Niigata. Fresh cream, cooked rice, grapefruit, honeysuckle, and a hint of white peach. Compared to Uonuma Junmai Tanrei Sharakuchi from the same brewery, the taste is in the same direction, but this one is more robust. It is 70% polished rice, fire-roasted, and stored at room temperature, and has a firm fruity aroma. It is by far better than Kozen Josui! That is my honest impression. It is sold only in the Uonuma area for 980 yen. I envy the people of Uonuma who can make this their everyday sake 😳.

My first impression was a harsh alcohol smell that rides on the tongue like a pungent odor, not unlike that of a Junmai Daiginjo. Too bad. Saitama is a hidden sake brewery, but I have not been able to find a sake that suits my taste. The aroma is softly ginjo, but it is strange that I cannot pick up any fruity aroma on the palate. It may be the Daiginjo-esque lactic acidity that is typical of Junmai, with hints of white bean dumplings and apricot jelly. Shiratama dango, apricot jelly, lime Faintly green bamboo

It is a light, dry Niigata-style sake with low acidity and a clean aftertaste, but it has a surprisingly rich balance that gives it a solid feel. It is interesting in a good sense that it is made by the Shirotaki Sake Brewery, but it is not like water. Freshly pounded rice cake, fresh cream, and cypress Slight hints of white peach and muscat Compared to Shirotaki Junmai-shu from the same brewery, the taste is in the same direction, but this one is more refreshing.
