This sake is brewed with banana yeast. It is sweet and sour to drink. The texture is light. The aftertaste does not last. It has a strange and unique taste, and I thought for a while what it tasted like, but I thought it was similar to the taste of Weizen beer. I thought it was similar to the taste of Weizen beer. It is a unique drink that I quite like.

It has an acidic and umami taste and a slightly hard texture. There is a significant bitterness in the aftertaste.
The label says it is made with "shagin milled rice", but I couldn't understand what that means.

I was interested in purchasing this sake because of its use of brewer's yeast. I imagined it to be a somewhat wild sake, but when I drank it, I found it to be weak, light, fruity and easy to drink with a good mouthfeel, the exact opposite of what I expected from a layman. It went very well with the atte.

This sake is light and easy to drink. It has acidity and a fresh gasiness typical of nama-shu. The sweetness is low and the umami flavor lingers in the aftertaste. It goes very well with a side dish.

It has a very light and refreshing taste. The acidity is strong and the sweetness is weak, giving it an umami taste.

I really like the fruity aroma. I compared it with AKABU Junmai-shu and found it to have a more delicate umami than Junmai-shu.

Grain aroma is weak, acidity and moderate umami. The aftertaste is moist and the umami lingers for a long time. I got the impression that the sake quality is a little hard.

I was intrigued to buy this because it was described as a Yamahai with a flavor that reminded me of strawberries. When I drank it, I found that the sweetness was not as strong as I had imagined and the aroma was not so spectacular. It goes well with food, but I think it is best to drink it before a meal.

This is from the brewery that makes Hachisen, but I always buy only Hachisen, so this time I bought Mutsu Otokoyama.
My impression is that it has a firm, hard feel. The grain aroma is weak, there is no sweetness, and the aftertaste is not very long. However, it goes well with aji (rice wine).

I bought a new orikara sake. It is one of my favorite sake to buy every year.
This year's sake has sweetness and acidity as the main flavors, but you can also taste a bit of umami. There was a bitterness in the aftertaste.

They have a limited edition sake that is a blend of 4 suminokoretsu. It seems that the percentage of sake rice is different every year, this year it is 20% Yamadanishiki, 26% Hachitanishiki, 22% Gin-no-Iroha, and 32% Omachi.
When we drank it, the grain aroma was weak and the umami flavor seeped in gradually. It is a calm sake with little lingering aftertaste.

The acidity comes first in the mouth, then the umami. It is called "dry" and is stronger than its alcohol content (16%). The aftertaste is not so much umami, but rather a spicy taste.

This is a new sake made with Ginga from Iwate Prefecture. When you drink it, you can feel the gasiness, acidity and umami well. On the first day after opening, the sweetness was not so much, but it increased on the second day, leaving a well-balanced aftertaste of umami and sweetness. It is a wonderfully made sake with a different taste from sweet and sour.

It has acidity, sweetness, and a gaseous taste. There is also quite a bit of umami, and a lingering aftertaste of umami, but it doesn't last very long. I think this year's sake has less sweetness than last year. It is very tasty.

This is the new sake I buy every year. When this sake is released, I feel that this year's new sake has finally started.
I drank it right away and found that this year's sake is made with less sweetness than usual and more umami and miscellaneous flavors. The acidity seems to have been offset by the other flavors.
Also, the price was less than 3,000 yen per bottle including tax until last year, but this year the price was raised to 3,190 yen including tax.

Three days after opening, the quality of the sake has settled down and the sweetness is more noticeable. It is still delicious. I will change the *.

This sake is a limited edition sake for Sake Day.
It has a moderate sweetness, a little umami, and a very direct acidity, which is probably the latest trend. It is light and has a refreshing aftertaste.
