Purchased for warming. It has a sharp attack with a deep flavor that can only come from aging. It has a complex flavor with a hint of sourness and savory notes, and while it is powerful, it finishes lightly in the second half. It is a delicious sake that you could drink it forever if you drink it little by little. ***

We enjoyed it so much last year that we purchased it again this year. The aroma is slightly ripe and sweet, like pineapple. In the mouth, there is a fine gasiness and a mellow sweetness. In the second half, a slight bitterness appears and disappears, leaving a lingering aftertaste. It was a delicious sake with a mellowness that is typical of orikara-mi and a fresh gas feeling. ***

The aroma is somewhat pear-like. The mouthfeel is smooth and silky, with a hint of chili gas. The juicy, fruity, mellow sweetness spread out and disappeared with a slight sourness, again like a fruit. Light and silky, it was a delicious sake that we could understand why everyone was buying it so vigorously. ***

Purchased for warming as it was awarded the highest gold medal in the heated sake contest in the pricey hot sake category. It was mild on the palate, with a gentle umami of rice spreading through, and the finish was clean and crisp with a refreshing acidity. The balance between the umami and crisp acidity was delicious and permeated the sake. The acidity is a little more pronounced at higher temperatures, so it may be best to warm it up. ****This is a very good sake.

I have not had Otters for a while, but I was attracted by the word "Otters", which is released only twice a year, so I bought it. In the mouth, there is a slight feeling of gas and a mellow sweetness that is typical of Otters. Fresh acidity also appears, and the aftertaste recedes quickly. There is a sense of freshness. **It was a delicious sake with freshness and depth.

The aroma is subdued, with a clear mouthfeel and sharp acidity. The umami flavor comes out softly in the middle and sharply sharpens up again in the latter half of the bottle. It was a delicious sake with a sharpness worthy of the title of "super dry". **
