Soft and gentle aroma, if I had to guess, it would be muscatelike. The mouthfeel is soft sweetness, umami, and acidity (which come out in this order), with a pleasant balance. The rest of the drink has a moderate sweet and sour aftertaste, and it finishes clean and refreshing. As the name suggests, it is a gentle sake, and is a perfect food sake for everyone. The alcohol content is a gentle 13 degrees. It is so delicious that I am sorry I didn't know the brand name until I bought it! 4.75

(Left photo) Soft acidity and sweet flavor Beautifully balanced, it blooms when served cold. Low-polished, Kame-no-o has a slight tangy aftertaste, but is generally very easy to drink. 4.00

(Right photo) I drank it expecting it to be mellow and dry, but it was too light on the palate. It was light on the palate, but had a very strong aftertaste! In the end, it was as mellow and dry as I imagined it would be. 2.75

The flavor is strong and mellow from start to finish. I drank it cold, but the more it is at room temperature, the more it opens up. As the concept suggests, it is also good for warmed sake. But it is still dry without any unpleasant taste or slurping sensation. 3.50

(middle photo) A refreshing summer sake with a gentle citrus acidity. It is light and refreshing, and you don't feel the alcohol at all. It has no sweetness or umami, which is typical of Murayusake, but it is a great food sake and tastes great! 4.25

(Left photo) The sweetness and umami are well felt in the mouth, and as is typical of nama-shu, there is a fresh, slightly bubbly taste, which is lightly tightened by a mild acidity. Overall, the sake is clear and smooth. 4.00

Fruity, but also has a robust, bone-dry aroma, similar to that of cooked rice. The mouthfeel is juicy and sweet, not too much, but a little bit tannic. It is full of rice-like umami. Only the back end tingles from the alcohol and the bitterness finishes the taste, but the sweetness lingers on for a long time. Overall, a very soft and gentle sake. 4.50

The aroma is mild. In the mouth, there is a dense sweetness, as if one were eating a sugar cube... There is a slight sourness, but it is not so much fruitiness. The umami is quite rich, and if I had to compare it to a banana, I would say it is banana. I wonder if the pleasant astringency (and slight bitterness) in the aftertaste is derived from the ingredients or from the low-polishing process... It is complex. I feel that this sake is still too sophisticated for me to understand. 5.00

First impression is raspberry sour The bubbles are strong. The aroma and the entrance are just like that. The umami taste in the middle is a rice flavor. The aftertaste is refreshing and light, again like a sour. I didn't know that berries and sake go so well together! I feel a new world! 4.75

Milk bottle style design? s cute appearance belies a powerful liquor. No modern niggly calpis-like sweetness. It is more like an alcoholic porridge when warmed to lukewarm. In addition to the sweetness and umami typical of rice malt, there is a slight acidity typical of sake and sake yeast. 3.75

A gorgeous, cute and full of sweetness typical of spring sake. The sweet flavor lingers in the mouth until the last sip. However, it can be served with food or on its own. You may imagine a scene of cherry petals flowing on the surface of the water. I want to go see the cherry blossoms in Hirosaki! 4.50 I checked in last year, so I didn't check in this year, but I also got a cherry blossom cup from Omine yesterday! As the design using cherry blossoms is common, the taste was also very similar!

The richness of the aroma and the impression of strong umami are contrasted by the smoothness of the mouthfeel. It has a strong umami flavor, but it also has a gorgeousness that fills the mouth that was not apparent on the nose. As the temperature rises, it becomes even sweeter and more fruity and can be enjoyed on its own, but it is also extremely well-balanced and does not interfere with meals at all, making it an excellent mid-meal sake. The first Katsushikoma was a hard-to-find sake that lived up to its name! 4.75

Oh, it's so sweet! The morning coolness I drank last year did not taste so good, but this is a sweet and juicy type that I like! It has a strong flavor, but it is not heavy at all, and the price is the best! It's like spring, and a sake that fuels the emotions, perfect for this fleeting season when the cherry blossoms have passed their best time to be seen! I'm afraid I won't be able to buy more! 5.00

(middle photo) I put off drinking it for a long time, thinking that I could drink it someday, and finally had it for the first time at Kayasya! Modern, sweet, juicy, and delicious! Especially, the sweetness is very beautiful! It has a soft, light aftertaste that disappears quickly and pleasantly! I prefer it cold, but it can be enjoyed at higher temperatures, so drink it slowly! 4.25

Challenging and interesting! Sweet, tasty, acidic, and gutsy from the entrance, but is this sake? The richness and body on the back end is something I have never felt before, and I can't describe it. If you try to feel the beer-like character, you can feel it, but when the temperature range goes up, it is quite sake-like! It's a little different from my taste, so... 4.75 Prose A craft beer brewed in collaboration with Nara Brewery, "UNDERWATER" brewed with Kaze no Mori brewing water and No. 7 yeast, and a beer to be drunk at the same time. From the first sip, or rather from the aroma, this one has a considerable sake-like quality. Is this the power of the yeast? Is it the power of water? The aroma is a world unknown in craft beer so far! The sourness and umami at the entrance give a sense of Kaze no Mori. There is also a maltiness in the aftertaste, which is interesting. Drinkability reminiscent of lager beer. I have been into craft beers recently, and I realized the power of hops is great! I don't know which one I'm drinking, even though the main ingredients are so different (like ALPHA8 with carbonation -> UNDERWATER).

Mmmm, delicious! The sweetness is much stronger than usual Kaze no Mori, especially at the entrance. If you say it has a white malted rice-like citrusiness, well, that's true, but the acidity is not as assertive as I thought it would be (probably because I'm comparing it to Flax Cat, but...). The umami is well asserted and the balance is really good. The lingering aftertaste is more subdued than the standard, but again pleasant, as is typical of Kaze no Mori. Higher rating than 🐱. 5.00

(Left photo) Drinking comparison, both have in common The overall taste is considerably more refreshing than the usual Kaze no Mori Akitsuho. Especially the back palate is very light. On the other hand, the depth of sweetness and umami is typical of Kaze no Mori It is hard to believe that this is a very low-polished wine. Compared to the Trial Edition Lighter on the entry and a little sourness on the back palate. The aroma and taste are like white grapes and white flowers. It is hard to say which one is my favorite, but the difference is very slight. 4.75
