It has a relatively balanced taste, as one would expect from a Kochi sake with a dry taste.
It has no cloying taste and is easy to drink, so you can easily finish it.
A sake I was honestly disappointed in after drinking it at an izakaya in Toyama previously.
Today, I came across an unopened bottle of Katsikoma at an izakaya and ordered it again, thinking that my impression would be different if it had just been opened.
The result was...
It has an unusual taste, with a strong umami and sweetness on the palate, but with a clean aftertaste.
This clean aftertaste is common in dry sake, but it is rare in such sweet umami sake.
It depends on one's taste, but if you want to make a sake with a clean aftertaste to match the fish from Toyama, it would have been better to make it dry from the start to give it a more solid direction.
It is a niche flavor, in my opinion.
There is a fresh acidity in the mouthfeel, but soon after, umami and sweetness are well pronounced.
There was no mention of junmai, etc., but the taste is clearly of high quality.
Recommended: ☺️
It has a very firm umami and sweetness.
Compared to Yamadanishiki, it has a fuller, fuller taste.
It has no fresh acidity, but the sweetness of the rice makes you drink it.
Delicious 😋.
Fresh acidity, rice flavor and sweetness are pleasant.
It's been more than 3 weeks since the bottle was opened, so the flavor is a bit off, but I'm happy to drink this as much as I can: ❤️
It may be acidic in nature, but it tastes unpleasant with advanced oxidation.
Since it is summer, it is likely to be oxidized easily after the bottle is opened.
The balance between sweetness and acidity is very good.
The impression is that the flavor of the rice is fully expressed.
It has a rich and mellow flavor and is good for a strong-tasting entrée👍.
The sweetness of nama-shu can be felt, but it is slightly acidic.
The sake has been opened and oxidized slightly, so in addition to the original sourness, I also feel a little unpleasant acidity.
To be honest, it's not very good.
The taste is light, soft, and slightly sweet. It has a slightly rich flavor due to the fact that it is made from jusui (10-water).
It is an excellent sake that goes well with any meal and seems to be popular with the ladies.
If you see this sake at a liquor store, you should buy it without hesitation and keep it at home.
Incidentally, I drank a sake of the same brand before, but it tasted completely different, perhaps due to different storage conditions after opening the bottle.
Good evening, Mr. Namakoro.
I had this sake for the first time this year and I couldn't believe it ✨.
However, I wasn't sure about my memory of drinking it with the last drink of the night out, so I stocked up on it for drinking at home 🎵.
Free Sake 🍶 served in the 5th floor of the Sakura Lounge at Haneda Airport Terminal 3
Five stars all the way: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Nothing better than free sake 😍😍😍.
In case you're wondering, it's just a plain delicious sake 🍶 with a good balance of sweetness, acidity and umami.
It is an excellent sake that can be paired with anything as a food sake.
It has a fresh acidity reminiscent of lemon, lychee, and green apple, with a soft yet refreshing taste that quickly disappears in the back of the throat.
This is a perfect saké to be enjoyed with a crisp, refreshing side dish at this time of the year.
The soft flavor characteristic of this brewery has a nice synergistic effect with the freshness of the sake.
It is best to drink it well chilled with a glass of wine. ❗️
The taste is very close to "Atago no Matsu" which I drank before. (Of course...).
Well-balanced, clear, and with a strong rice flavor, it gives the impression that the sake is very well made.
It has a balance of sweetness, acidity, and umami, but the acidity and umami are a little stronger. Although it is a pure sake, it does not have that much sweetness, and the alcohol content of 18% makes it very drinkable.
It has a nice unpolished, rustic feel to it.
It seems to go well with horse mackerel namenro.
I sense a sourness that is not strong, but this may be due to oxidation caused by the fact that the bottle has been open for a while.
It has a hint of sweetness and flavor, but the impression is a bit blurred, and honestly, I don't think it is that good.
As I mentioned above, I think this is probably due to the effects of participation in the hot weather.
If you are going to drink it at an izakaya during this season, it would be better to drink it from a bottle that has a high level of liquid and has not been opened long time ago. 🙆🏻
The acidity is impressive, reminiscent of fresh citrus 🍊. The acidity is not too sharp and not too sharp, so it is very pleasant, as if you are drinking a soft drink.
It has a full flavor and is easy to pair with any dish.
The taste reminds me of a cheerful high school girl. 🙋🏻♀️
Sake from Yamagata tends to be soft and full-bodied, and this sake is no exception.
It has a particularly strong umami flavor that makes one salivate while drinking. It is mellow and sweet, and seems to go well with local cuisine with a slightly strong flavor.
It is said to have won some kind of award, which is understandable.
A four-pack bottle costs just under 1,700 yen including tax, which is not that expensive and not bad value for money.
Recommended 👍
It is a brewed sake but has a good flavor.
It just won the brewery sake category 2018 at the World Contest of Sake, and the cosiness is very good, but the later 2020 2021 may be better...
Different taste from Yamadanishiki, Omachi or Gohyakumangoku 🤔.
It has a strong sweet and umami taste of rice, so it may not be suitable for those who prefer a lighter taste.
It has a strong umami taste, so it may go well with dishes with a strong flavor. It might be interesting to try it with Narazuke (pickles) at the end of a meal.
