A fire-aged version of Yui Sake Shop's original sake. Compare with the nama-shu. The sweetness is in the same direction as that of the nama-shu, but the taste is more refreshing. This one is better as a food sake.

Yui Sake Shop's original sake version. Compare with the hi-ire version. The moment I put it in my mouth, the rich sweetness spread. The overall taste was soft, probably due to the low alcohol content.

BRANDALISED is a British graffiti art project. Banksy's Balloon Girl label is a nod to the project. The taste is clean and refreshing, with a moderate aroma for a sake. The balance of sweetness, umami and bitterness is excellent. The price is well worth it.

It has a gorgeous aroma, a firm, mature flavor, and is extremely delicious. It is beautifully balanced, as is typical of Yamada Nishiki. I haven't had a Kuroryu in over 10 years, but I never knew Kuroryu could be this good...
