At first, the sake is sweet and gentle. The aftertaste is mildly acidic and has an orikarami taste. It seems to go well with any meal, and on this day we had it with crab. A truly delicious sake.
First contact is a gracious sweetness. Immediately, it has a citrusy acidity and a wine-like atmosphere. I have the impression that it is more acidic than Kameizumi, which uses the same CEL yeast. The flavor seems to change with meals and the time after opening the bottle. It tastes good now, and I am looking forward to seeing how it changes.
Fruity with a mouthfeel of 60% sweetness and 40% acidity. It has a flavor similar to that of Yamori and Eiko-Fuji's Orikara, which is right up my alley! It has a reserved aspect, so it can be said to be a sake that complements a meal.
The first contact is sweet like muscat. The sourness spreads quickly and is not the image of a sweet sake. As the meal progresses, the acidity becomes more pronounced, but the aftertaste is refreshing. This sake is easy to drink and elegant. It seems to go well with all kinds of food.
The aroma is fruity and sweet, but the sweetness is not that strong. The acidity spreads gradually but does not overpower the sweetness, making it very easy to drink. The aftertaste is more sweet and rounded with no corners. The main role is played by the meal, and in a good sense, it has a modest presence.
As the name "Omachi Junmai Daiginjo" suggests, it has a gentle, angular mouthfeel. The fruity sweetness comes first, but a gentle acidity follows to give the sake a rounded taste. It has a clean aftertaste and goes well with any meal. It is truly delicious.
The label on the back of the bottle reads as follows
Even though this year started with the nightmare of the Noto Peninsula earthquake on New Year's Day, the warm and positive aspect of people who think of others and do what they can to help was so impressive that we decided to use orange as this year's theme color. Wishing you a year-end and New Year filled with gratitude and kindness.
The sake in my refrigerator was a bit congested, and I drank it in February 2025. The words on the label and the gentle flavor sink in at a time when I am getting busier at work. I will be gentle and careful again tomorrow.
The sweetness of pineapple on the palate prevails, but it gradually turns sour. This sourness is the charm of CEL-24 yeast. It seems to increase the mellowness of the wine, making it a good match for any snack. It is likely to be liked by wine lovers and appreciated overseas as well.
First contact with a melon-like sweetness, not much acidity or pungency. It does not have a strong sweet atmosphere like Hanaoyo, and although it does not have a strong presence in a good sense, it is easy to drink. The aftertaste is clean and clean and round. The surprising thing is the cost! It is a brand that a brewery in Chiba Prefecture distributes only to stores in Chiba Prefecture, so it is categorized as inexpensive sake, perhaps because transportation costs can be kept down, but it is outstandingly delicious. I'm sure I'll be back for more.
The first contact is fruity and round, with no corners, characteristic of Yamada-Nishiki. The slight acidity in the aftertaste gives the pleasant impression that one is drinking sake. It has no quirks and complements food, but has a strong sense of presence. If you encounter this sake as your first bottle of sake, you will be happy. It is such a sake.
Aruzoe's Katsuma. It is mildly dry and has little acidity. In a good sense, it has no presence and complements the main meal. I think there are many people who prefer Aruzoe's Katsuma.
First contact with a slightly tingling effervescence and mild acidity. THE fruity with an immediate sweetness. The orangey flavor, like the color of the label, is pleasant to the palate. The taste is easy to drink with no corners because it is made from Yamadanishiki and Akaban Omachi. You can drink as much as you want.
This may be my favorite sake right now. Sweetness from the aroma and a classy atmosphere. Pineapple-like sweetness and moderate acidity on the palate. It is a soft sake with a clear taste that is free of any cloying flavors. This is a sake that can compete in the world.
Before the meal, it tastes like pears and is slightly effervescent. It is rather acidic, and gradually sweetness develops and the aftertaste is refreshing. As the meal progresses, the sweetness of the first contact increases, giving it a more fruity impression. Since the basic taste is sweet, it is recommended for those who do not like dry wines. It seems to change its face depending on what you eat with it.
First, there is a citrus taste. It starts out citrusy, then becomes slightly dry, and ends with an acidic aftertaste. It is a little dry and a little acidic rather than sweet, and the flavor seems to change with time. A sake I would like to grow a little.
The first contact is the fruity taste of Eiko-Fuji. From there, the sweetness and acidity characteristic of orikara-mi remind us of the arrival of winter.
