The umami is more assertive than the image Takasago had so far. The tangy, slightly effervescent taste on the tongue and the sharp acidity are impressive. #Kiyamasa Shuzo #Takasago

I was nervous when I opened the bottle because it said to be careful not to blow out the bottle, but there was no blowout. There was no fizzy sensation when I drank it. The acidity is impressive, as it is touted as "our acidity. The synergy between the sweetness and acidity of Omachi is well done.

This year, too, we were able to find this sake. It has a nice acidity, and while it is supposed to be light, it also has a deep umami taste. The alcohol content is neither too high nor too low. In a word, it is extremely delicious. I hesitated to buy a magnum bottle, but it's not corked, so it's easy to cork. #Obuse winery #Sogapère Ephis #Numerosis

The first Yamori I drank was this Orikarami with an impressive yellow label. Since then, I have had a variety of YAMAMORI, but I think this is the freshest one. The sharp lychee-like acidity and bitterness create a sense of tension. The mischievous taste eventually dies down. #Toyoshimaya #Yamori #Ogara-mi

Gorgeous aroma. It has an elegant acidity like Shinmasa, but this is more like plum. This is a taste I have never experienced before. This is the depth of sake. The label says it is time to drink, and it was shipped a year ago. I bought it from a liquor store last month, so it must have been sitting at the store. #Colors #Suiboku #Ash

When the bottle was opened, it did not blow out but popped. The fresh acidity on the palate is pleasant. It has a strong sweetness, but unlike the Collage, it is restrained. It's a sharp new sake. #Miyazumi #Junmai nigori #Miyazumi Meinjo
