Soft sweetness, aroma and acidity that seems to be derived from lactic acid.
A slight tingle of alcohol in the aftertaste.
The taste is dry but has a classical feel due to the lactic acid-like aroma.
Pineapple-like peach aroma and gentle sweetness with a subtle alcohol aftertaste and bitterness.
I like this one better than the Monochrome I had the other day.
Pear-like aroma, moderate sweetness and slight acidity, slight gasiness in the aftertaste, followed by alcohol aroma and bitterness.
Once again, I have the impression that the taste of Kangiku's junmai daiginjo and junmai ginjo classes do not differ much. .... Well, it's still in the mid-3000 yen range, so I guess you can't tell the difference unless you have a more expensive one.
I thought I'd buy a bottle of Yamai 70 once in a while, but when I heard from the store that they were discontinuing the product, I rushed out and bought three bottles... ... I liked it because it was so tasty and cost-effective ... . Ugh .... 😭
I bought 3 bottles so I can enjoy it slowly 🍶.
The aroma of apples, juicy sweetness and acidity, and the aroma of alcohol all come and go at once.
It is quite sweet, but the aftertaste is refreshing due to the perfect balance of sourness and alcoholic aroma!
How classical ... compared to the Sengyo I've had so far.
I mean, how high is the alcohol content?
21 degrees?
It's like a shochu....
It has a lactic acidity and a pear-like aroma.
The rich sweetness and the strong alcohol leaves a long aftertaste with a tingling sensation.
It has a high alcohol content, so it might be good to drink it on the rocks.
Juicy sweetness and a hint of alcohol.
After that comes the pineapple aroma, followed by a lingering alcohol aftertaste and a clean cut.
I think this is my favorite of the Takagami series.
Slightly gaseous and softly fragrant aroma of alcohol.
Afterwards, there is a slight sweetness and a lactic acid-derived aroma and acidity.
This is a unique flavor.
The acidity in the aftertaste is a little bit lingering, so if the gasiness were stronger, it would be more like a Calpis soda, and I think it would have a more summery feel to it.
8/24 addition.
If you chill it well, the acidity becomes less tepid, and the alcohol flavor and lactic acidity give it a nice balance!
I guess it tasted like that because it was a little warm... ... It's really strange how the taste of sake changes depending on the temperature range ....
The slight sweetness and sourness, followed by a strong alcoholic aroma, and then a tingling sensation that wears off.
That's all! It is a simple taste.
As the name suggests, this is a very dry wine, but I was surprised at the low alcohol content other than 16.5 degrees.
I wouldn't be surprised if it tastes like 20 degrees... . LOL!
The rice is 100% produced in Yamagata Prefecture.
■Upright
The aroma is peachy with moderate sweetness and acidity. The aftertaste is well-balanced, with a hint of bitterness and alcohol.
The overall taste may have a Calpis-like flavor.
After mixing
I feel like I write this every time I drink nigori sake, but it seems that the boundary between the flavors in the supernatant is lost and they come together.
The bitterness and alcohol are not so subtle to begin with, but it becomes even rounder, so the juice feeling increases.
It has a peachy aroma, a little sweetness, a touch of alcohol, and a slight sourness.
It is similar to the Shirofan Kuromatsu we had yesterday, but this one has a little more acidity.
Peach aroma, soft sweetness and faint bitterness. The aftertaste seems to fade away softly.
It doesn't have complexity or hook, but it's fine like this! It has a taste like this.
I would like to try other sakes from the same brewery because I like the pattern of the softly disappearing taste.
Slight sweetness and alcohol aroma, a little dusty aging aroma?
The date of filling is 2025/03, but I don't know if it's because it's old or not well preserved ... . Maybe it tasted beautiful when it was freshly made.
It is regrettable .... 😔
Apple-like aroma and sourness with a hint of alcohol lingering throughout. The sweetness is weak and sharp for a Glorious Fuji.
This is Junmai Daiginjo!
This is new... But I like it very much...!
Lactic acidity like yogurt, mellow sweetness and apple aroma.
It tastes like drinking a cocktail flavored with apple yogurt.
The store's POP said that it is recommended to drink on the rocks or with soda, so I did!
On the rocks
The taste is almost the same as the straight drink, but it is easier to drink because it is chilled to a crisp.
Carbonated
The taste is almost the same as on the rocks, but the addition of carbonation gives it an apple seed flavor!
You can drink it like a juice!
Gentle sweetness and gasiness, with a hint of sourness and bitterness that makes it sharp.
The acidity is summery and delicious!
Compared to the last time I drank it
Less bitterness, but longer aftertaste.
The acidity has increased.
I think so...
After the juicy sweetness comes, a slight gasiness and bitterness quickly fades away.... The mango-like aroma is a nice surprise at the end!
I like it very much because it has a sharp taste in spite of its sairai!
It has a faint pear-like aroma, a gentle sweetness, and an alcoholic aroma that rushes in and disappears in a flash.
It is rare to taste alcohol at the beginning of a sake, or it may seem peculiar, but it is delicious and harmonizes nicely.
