I left it in the hallway for 3 years.
For various reasons, you don't see it much these days, but I used to drink it often at izakaya (Japanese style pubs).
I tried it at various temperatures, but it was best drunk hot.
It has a mild taste and a nice umami and slightly spicy flavor.
I wonder if it can be served chilled if it hasn't been made long enough.

The flavor is like white peaches, with a good balance of umami and sweetness.
As the temperature rises, a slight spiciness emerges.
The company name seems to be Otters.
It is slightly effervescent, with a thin sweetness and a slight nigorigo flavor, and a sourness that finishes it off later.
As the day goes by, the overall taste becomes more settled.
We look forward to working with you this year 🎍.
Akitsuho 657 is a nearby izakaya that closed last year and where I used to drink most often.
The supplier is also a nearby liquor store that I often visit, so I often talk with the young master of the liquor store and wonder how the master is doing.
It is slightly effervescent and has a white peach-like flavor. It has a slightly sparkling, white peach-like flavor, with umami and acidity.
The slightly spicy taste that comes later is also nice.
From now on, I will drink it at home and relax,
Pon-chan, I look forward to working with you again this year 🙇.
I was drinking while remembering exactly what it was like to be in an izakaya.
The motsu-ni (stewed vegetables) was excellent, and the taste was unmatched.
Happy New Year, Yuuji 🌅Please keep in touch with us in the new year: 🙇🏻🙇🏻♀️
I'm sorry to hear that the izakaya near you closed 🥲 We're also a laid-back home-drinker 😄I wish there was a bar in the neighborhood 😅! We sometimes talk about it😅
Jay & Nobby, we look forward to working with you this year 🙇.
It's hard to find a place that has a good selection of sake, good food and is within walking distance.
I'm looking for an alternative izakaya, but it's hard to find one😅.
It has a sharp taste on the first sip, but as the day goes by, it mellows out a bit and the flavor increases.
It is also nice that a slight freshness comes in.
Good evening, Yuji.
I had winter higuma a while ago, too, and it gets more delicious as the days go by: ⤴️
I remember the freshness of it too! I was remembering that too 🤤.
Good morning, ma-ki!
I bought it because it was recommended by the liquor store and the label was cute😅
I enjoy changing the taste only when I drink at home 😄.

It was left in the hallway for 2 years 😅.
It has a slight spiciness and flavor, with a minerality that comes through quickly afterwards.
Would it be sharper if it hadn't been manufactured so long?
When you open your mouth, there is a gulp of alcohol.
The label on the back reads 18 degrees.
As the day goes by, the alcohol feeling goes away and the spiciness increases.
I heated up the last goupe of sake, and the umami flavor grew, but the spiciness was still there.
I drank the first sip at an izakaya.
It is mild on the palate and has a hiyaoroshi feeling.
Akagisan has an image of being dry because we drink only active nigori-style sake, but this one is sweet and tasty.
Black Phoenix has been a long time coming.
Mild and mellow on the palate.
Surprisingly, the spiciness comes later.
I think it is better when it is cooled down.
As usual, I mix all the ingredients from the beginning, but this time it took 40 minutes to open the bottle.
It is still the same apple juice.
It was a little more acidic than the last time, and had more apple flavor.
The bottle was finally opened after being left in the refrigerator for a while.
Hachitan Nishiki
Slightly effervescent, juicy and refreshing with a hint of umami acidity.
As the day passed, the acidity settled down and the flavor became mellow and umami-driven.
First time in a while?
I opened my mouth, and there was a chemical feeling, so I left it for 3 days.
It had a slight ginjo aroma and more umami, and I felt a strong sense of minerality.
The slight spiciness that comes later is also nice.
I rescued a ras 1, at a liquor store.
It was okay to open the bottle because of the perforated stopper, but it took a long time because the stopper was hard.
It is a lactic acid sour type, and the mouthfeel is smooth.
As the day goes by, the sourness settles down and you can taste the umami and sweetness.
Since I bought it late this year, it had lost its shwashy vigor.
I left it in the fridge, wondering when I would drink it.
It is more effervescent than expected and rough on the palate.
It has quite a ginjo aroma, umami, and sweetness, but it has a nice dry feel with a lot of acidity.
When cold, it has only a sweetness, but as the temperature rises, it has a strawberry-like flavor.
It also has a mellow flavor, but would it be better to have a little more acidity?
It has a slight ginjo aroma, and as the temperature rises, it has a nice mellow feeling.
The last time I drank it, I had the impression that it was sweet, but this year's version has a spiciness to it.
All Gunma Maikaze series
Slightly effervescent, with a sharp taste on the palate.
After a few days, the mildness and umami taste increases.
The slight spiciness that comes later is also nice.
