This is the first time I've had it, and it's delicious! It's like an autumn sake at the time of year, but it's delicious cold (room temperature), but superb when heated! It starts with the umami of rice and a slight sweetness, followed by a soft acidity, and finishes with a light bitterness. It has a good balance and I think it is one of the best heated sake I have ever had ✨🍶.

The label is stylish or gorgeous (lol). First of all, the aroma is amazing! It smells sweet and fruity anyway, like passion fruit. However, the taste is not that sweet, and it can be used as a food sake! However, I'm happy to spend the year-end and New Year's holidays just in sake mode, lol.

The first bottle of the year. Soft acidity and a clean taste. I drank it alternately with Tasake's Zodiac label, which seemed similar in type, but this one was slightly sweeter. Both were, of course, delicious!

We ended the year with this sake, which is also talked about here. The bottle was opened carefully with a considerable amount of gas. It is delicious. But I couldn't tell the difference between it and the Snowball 💦 because I have a stupid tongue. Hmmm...it's delicious, though.

It didn't feel like a snowball blowing violently, the gassiness was mild and the taste was soft. However, the amount of mash was so great that it was sloppy at the end, like amazake💦.

It's been a week now, but I compared the drinks. The difference is much greater than I expected. This one has more gas and almost no sweetness. The sourness and bitterness are also stronger, giving the impression of a dry adult taste.

Purchased a set from IMADEYA! I started with the regular Snowman. It is rather well-balanced and easy to drink, with a touch of sweetness but also a light bitterness at the end. Maybe it's because of the low alcohol content, but I finished it in one night 💦.

A limited edition, made in cedar barrels and covered with a woody aroma. The plain arabashiri is delicious, so this is also delicious!

I drink this every year, and maybe it is just my imagination, but this year's Masumi Arabashiri was particularly tasty. It has a freshness, of course, but the flavor of the rice is packed with flavor.

I asked for Oroku, which I had wanted to try for a while, and this is what I got. It was delicious with a firm flavor and acidity!

The label is cute and unintentionally relaxing (lol). The taste is well-balanced and calm, perfect for warming up.

I had a long-awaited solo drink at "KANNO Miho" during a business trip to Osaka. I started with this nigori sake from the aperitif menu. It was refreshing and slightly sweet!

I have not had this one in a while. It is refreshing and has the acidity typical of Masumi. It is good chilled, but it is more mellow and tasty when lukewarm.

Compared to regular tazake, it has a fruity flavor with a refreshing acidity and a bit of sweetness. It seems to be available only during the summer season, so it may be perfect for that time of the year as well.
