Mild on the palate and down the throat. The aroma is gorgeous, yet it goes down smoothly. The spiciness is moderate.
I compared four kinds of sake, but this one seemed to suit my taste buds the best.
In the photo, it is the leftmost green label.
The aroma is very sake-like. I thought it might be a little spicy considering the sake degree of +5.5, but it was not that spicy and was very drinkable. I thought it might be a little spicy, but it was not that spicy and was easy to drink.
It has a robust flavor that spreads from the mouth and conveys the feeling of rice in the midst of the spiciness. As a food sake, I thought it would be a good match for Japanese cuisine.
I bought it because of its pretty spring pink bottle.
It has a gorgeous aroma and fruity taste, but is soft on the palate.
The spiciness also comes later, but it seems to disappear quickly. The spiciness also comes later, but it seems to disappear quickly.
It took about 15 minutes to open the bottle.
I thought it would be peculiar because of its cloudy taste, but it was a crisp sake with a fruity aroma, a shuwa mouthfeel, and a crisp taste down the throat.
The waiter told me that even sake beginners would be fine with it, but it is quite strong in sake character, so I thought beginners might have different tastes. I thought so.
Pressed on the morning of Risshun (February 4). It is a limited edition sake.
I thought it was clear, but it was slightly cloudy.
But it was very easy to drink because the mouthfeel was gentle and not too spicy.
I was allowed to drink it with my husband, who is a mainstay of the family, as the product was prayed for before shipping. My husband doesn't drink sake (and usually doesn't drink much alcohol), but he didn't seem to find it difficult to drink, so even sake beginners might be able to enjoy it 🙄.
The only known method of sake making is "high-temperature Yamahai brewing". It has a peculiar taste, but the sake has a strong punch. When we were looking for a heated sake, the store owner recommended this one. When warmed up to lukewarm, the peculiarity is gone and a refreshing spiciness lingers in the aftertaste.
I was surprised at the sweetness of the rice the moment I put it in my mouth. It was also lightly nigori (light nigori) but without any peculiarities and had a very nice aroma that made it easy to drink.
We had it at room temperature. It is crisp and dry, and it makes even heavily seasoned dishes crisp and refreshing. I would like to try it warmed next time. It may become a little mellower.
A limited edition summer sake.
It has a smooth but gentle mouthfeel.
The peculiarity and taste of the rice were well felt.
We chose snacks without peculiarities and drank it at home.
The color is a little yellowish and the sake has a peculiar taste. But the peculiarity is not strong, and it is gentle on the palate, so I thought it was easy to drink.
Winter Moon.
This one also has a different flavor from the limited edition sake.
The aroma is more subdued than that of the limited edition sake, but it too has a crisp and refreshing taste.
