YORU
The aroma of ethyl caproate (apple type) spreads and a fresh sweetness is felt.
Despite the sweetness of the first half, the second half of the flavor is smooth and slips away.
The label looks like the Kamakado Sumijiro pattern, which is nice.

YORU
This is a product of the newest sake brewery in Japan, "Iraka Sake Brewery".
The brewery invited a toji (master brewer) from Taishinshu to brew this sake.
It has a ginjo aroma like grapes, and the moment you put it in your mouth, you feel a fresh, fizzy sensation.
It has a juicy flavor as it passes down the throat, and a gentle lingering aftertaste.
The specs are undisclosed, but the rice is locally grown under contract, so it is probably Hitogokochi.
The level of quality is high, as is that of Yamazan, a new brewery also from Nagano. Both have a similar taste, but I have the impression that there are many parts that are more subdued than the freshness of the other one.

It goes in smoothly with a light taste typical of Fushimi's soft water. The lingering aroma of pear-like fruit and the umami of rice spread gradually. As the back of the label and the description say, it has not only sweetness but also sourness and bitterness.

It has the oddball spec of being 20 degrees.
It has a strong honey-like sweetness at the moment of drinking and in the aftertaste, but it is less tart, with just a hint of alcohol coming through the nose.
