I realized that I had not posted a post on Yukidaruma alone while I had mentioned Yukidaruma UA, so I posted this post now. The aroma is a perfect balance between green apple-like sourness and banana-like sweetness. The flavors continue for the length of the palate, with a clean, crisp finish and a texture that leaves no unpleasant sensations on the tongue. The bottle looks and tastes exactly like a snowman. This is one of those bottles that makes you understand why the toji (master brewer) of Kangiku Sake Brewery said, "How did you make a snowman?

The aroma is sour banana. In the mouth, a mild banana and sourness spreads to the palate, and gradually the banana feeling fades and you realize that it has a clean and crisp taste. The balance between sourness and sweetness is exquisite, and when paired with blueberry cheese or even eclairs, it sublimates elegantly as a dessert. This is a great drink that retains the atmosphere of Sentori Modern, but with the youthfulness that is characteristic of arabashiri.

Mimurosugi木桶菩提元 SPARKLING

The first bottle of Mimurosugi. This sparkling sake, made with the oldest sake brewing technique known, the wooden vat Bodhidhara method, is perfect for the beginning of the New Year. The aroma in the mouth has a soft banana flavor, and the carbonation is not as strong as that of champagne, making it very refreshing and crisp to start the New Year. With an alcohol content of 12 degrees, it is easy to drink and was a very tasty bottle to drink with Osechi dishes. We look forward to serving it again this year.

Fusano Kankiku39-Special Thanks 2025純米大吟醸

100% Omachi from Okayama Prefecture, 39% polished rice. For the brewer, this sake was made to express gratitude for the past year (=39) using Omachi, which is considered to be the seventh year since the release of this product and to produce a seven-color flavor. The flavor is reminiscent of pineapple on the palate, with a sweetness that spreads across the palate and a finish that is reminiscent of Kangiku with its slowly receding aftertaste. It is the kind of sake I would like to drink from noon on New Year's Day with sweet snacks while watching the Hakone Ekiden relay race.

Polishing ratio 40%. It is very clean in the mouth, without any cloying taste, with a subtle sweetness and a clean taste that goes down the throat. The aftertaste is clean and crisp, and although I felt the sharpness was stronger when the sake was cooled down, it became clearer as the temperature dropped. I paired it with sukiyaki, and it was a great sake that could soften the aftertaste while taking advantage of the richness of the sukiyaki.

This is my first Morishima. The aroma is pear, and on the palate, a slight banana feeling passes cleanly through the well-heard acidic flavor. Clean and sharp. Maybe it's just me, but I got a somewhat similar vibe to Bakuren.

(Day 1) Both the aroma and attack are juicy yet clean, reminiscent of white peaches. The acidity can also be felt. The aftertaste is also clean and crisp, leaving a fruity flavor. Aizan. Urakasumi yeast (Day 2) The acidity increases and the flavor changes from white peach to a slight green apple. The alcohol taste in the mouth is also slightly milder. I used to make it a rule to drink it the day it was opened, but now I finally know the joy of letting it sit for a while.

The taste of Capu spreads on the palate, but there is no sweetness, giving the impression of dryness. The aftertaste is moist and Capu flavor remains, and you can enjoy the taste. The image is that of a mild version of Bayern Super Dry.

(No photo because we drank it at the store.) It has a juicy aroma reminiscent of tropical fruits, but its clean and crisp taste makes it easy to pair with meals. It is an excellent match with fatty sashimi.

The aroma of juicy pineapple and a hint of cotton candy tickles the nose, and the palate is filled with the sweetness and acidity of tropical fruits, but the finish is clean and crisp, with a hint of bitterness at the end. It was a wonderful sake that is worthy of being called the ultimate food sake.

The first UA snowball and assemblage. The lingering complexity of the aftertaste is more impressive than the conventional Snowman. When the bottle is opened, the cloudy water that has accumulated at the bottom of the bottle erupts into a snowy landscape, as shown in the third photo. In the mouth, lactic acidity, green apple, pear-like Sengkyo's unique sourness, and a hint of bitterness spread out, and the aftertaste has a subtle earthiness and four different sake flavors. This artistic sake can even be enjoyed for its silky texture.

It is truly a dry sake, and it quickly changes the impression that daiginjos are mellow, and one senses the possibilities of sake. However, it is not just dry, but has a soft acidity that spreads in the mouth and a sharp aftertaste. It was a very nice sake.

It has a very clean flavor, and the slight effervescence is very refreshing on the palate. This is a bottle that makes you feel like you are on Kujukuri-hama beach in winter. It is a drink that makes one feel proud to be from Chiba Prefecture.

(No photo because we got it at the store.) It has a clean dry taste with a subtle sweet aftertaste. I paired it with wasabi ponzu (Japanese horseradish ponzu sauce) with mizu-tako (octopus) and watercress, and it went very well with it. Lovely.
