Thick ricey flavor with a sharp tangy finish. Lingering umami and sweet aftertaste. Better than expected with sushi, but will save the rest of the bottle for a meat dish

Well, it has a sake degree of +16, and I can feel the creator's care in its mild and thick taste. Distinctly Rice fragrance as soon as I opened the bottle. Oh very tangy and acidic initially but has a dry finish.

This sake’s acidity cuts through the fattiness in cheese and ham for another good pairing Matched well with Hokkaido Cream Cheese Nama Roll Cake Definitely NOT a typical traditional Sake 2025/06/06

My wife says that as soon as the bottle is opened, it has an aroma of koji rice, and the first sip has a fresh, fruity, gorgeous flavor like muskmelon🍈. It could go well with dessert.

Came back to my SIL’s house (栃木県出身) for some sake with snacks. This is so much better! Yuto is delicious for sipping and also great with salty senbei or fresh strawberries 🍓 Sugita Shuzo is her “neighborhood Kura”, I hope she gets more the next time she goes to Tochigi.

Very mild flavored. In my opinion, maybe not a good match for Yakitori. So far, I’m a bit disappointed with Ranman. The three that I tried tonight all have been “low impact”. I’ll have to try Ranman a different day with different food.

Tangy and sweet. Sweetness coats your mouth Probably good to sip by itself.

As the Sake warms, the koji’s musty aroma fills the glass.
