This is summer junmai ginjo!
Fresh and cool, like green apples. Fresh and refreshing fruitiness. The moderate umami of rice gives it a refreshing taste with a clean aftertaste.
I drank it in gulps (laugh).

That beautiful light blue hexagonal bottle is striking!
Transparent taste and crisp, tight ginjo aroma.

It is a sake that gives you a sense of power.

Very popular Sentori Seasonal Series!
The fresh, spring-like quality of this sake, with its lush, clear, and refreshing acidity, fills the mouth.
The rich flavor is intertwined with a light nigori orikari (a light cloudy color).
This is truly a spring limited edition! I picked it up again this year (smile).

It is not an orthodox sake, but it is a sake that does not look like sake, which is also good!

Yamama is the result of the combination of Yamatoyo (rough running) and Mamatoyo (blame). It's interesting.
It's clearly different. It has a mellow mouthfeel and a deep, calm flavor. From the moment you put it in your mouth to the aftertaste, it's generally gentle, but it's also powerful and fruity.
This is delicious!

The same tank of sake is bottled in the order in which it is pressed: "Ararunushi", "Nakagori", and "Samesame".
This time, we tried two bottles, the "Araduki" Yamabotoyo and the "Tame" Mamabotoyo!
The aroma is very nice and solid. When you drink it, you feel the umami strongly, but it has acidity, which combined with the aroma is refreshing.
Fresh and delicious!
