When you put it in your mouth, there is sweetness in the middle and bitterness on the side. After a while, the acidity spreads, and the mouth is full of happiness with a wonderful harmony. The bitter taste finishes off the taste with a refreshing taste. The taste does not betray our expectations.

It has been a long time since I have tasted Imi. It has a good heady aroma and a nice sweetness that spreads nicely when you drink it. We rediscovered the deliciousness of Imi.
A series of sake brewed by a Sagamihara sake brewery using sake rice grown in Sagamihara City. This year, Kubota Brewery has done what they do best: they have made a dry, but alky sake. It is not my favorite sake, but I want to support it because it is local.

A sake project brewed with local sake rice. It is a raw sake, so the mouthfeel is not bad, but the high alcohol content gives it a classic, rich, mellow taste. It is best served with food rather than on its own.

There is no doubt that it tastes good because it is a rice wine. But the beautiful sweetness exceeds expectations. The problem is that a single can of this sake will be finished in no time.
Good evening, nakopapa!
The can of rice wine is really delicious 😋.
I had it for the first time last year and I remember it was really too delicious and blissful 🤤.

The label is cute. At first, the sweetness is slightly sweet and acidic, with bitterness following and kicking in later. It has a thick flavor for a Junmai Daiginjo.
Polishing ratio 59%, alcohol content 14%, 100% Miyamanishiki from Nagano Prefecture
This year we also received wine from Obuse Winery. I used to feel like I was drinking wine when it was in a wine bottle, but this one is definitely sake. The acidity when you taste it has something in common with Shinmasa, which specializes in 6-row yeast. Both Akita and Nagano sake are hard to compare and contrast.

The supernatant is very sweet. I thought it might be Omachi, but there is nothing on the label. Is it not? And the sweetness is emphasized even more when the ori is mixed with it. It is delicious.
