The spoils of my recent trip to Ueda.
I wondered if it would be a little bitter since it is Yamae Nishiki. I thought it might be a little bitter, but it turned out to be a fresh muscat 🍇.
After a few days, it turned mildly sweet.
Oh, this nigori is good!
Fruitiness overflowing from the slight fizziness. Gentle pineapple flavor. I like that it is not too sweet and is cut off by the bitterness.
I'm glad my first brand was this one. I want to drink other brands.
Wind Forest with Yamanokami yeast.
Herbal woodiness from banana nuances from microbubbles. It is quite distinctive.
I didn't know that the same Akitsuho could be so different depending on the yeast...
This one is addictive, though it's not for everyone.
Abe's spring sake, an unusual aromatic type for Abe. Pear and green apple-like.
It's so loud that it makes me a little tired of drinking it, but the light-bodied sweet and sour fruity flavor is as good as it gets.
We'll see what happens over time.
Uemoten Sake Hanpukai Limited edition sake.
Onagawa is not always my favorite to open on the palate...cemedine-like nuances.
But it seems to settle down a bit over time.
The first Hitokochochi from Tozawa.
I dared to try it over time, but it didn't fall apart. When the bottle was first opened, it had a gassy feeling, but after a few days, it became moist and sweet. This is just the way it is!
