Taste preference 4.7 I enjoyed it very much, it was refreshing and had a good balance of acidity and flavor. It was a little carbonated and probably just at the point of drinking that I liked the most. I don't know if I will be able to drink it the same way the next time I buy it.

Taste preference 4.5 → ★4.1 The balance of everything is to my liking. It is very tasty both cold and warmed. It is clean, dry, and aromatic. It has none of the languidness that is sometimes unpleasant with junmai. It is a sake I like to keep on hand at home. For some reason, the second bottle I bought was still alcoholic and had a weak aroma, but I guess that was the difference between the two lots.

Taste preference ★3.9 However, it seems to go well with liver, aged cheese, and, later, curry, making it unbeatable with some dishes! If I ate it with liver crème brûlée, it was ★4.8.

Taste preference ★4.0 It has a strong alcohol taste and is light and tight. The aftertaste is a bit more floral than I would have liked. However, it is great with sweet white sashimi.

Taste preference 4.4 unpasteurized sake I quite liked the taste. It may have just suited my mood at the time, but I really enjoyed the clarity of the raw sake, the umami from the rice, and the aroma that came later.

Taste Preference ★3.3 It had a strong alcohol taste, which is not my favorite type, and the flavor I was looking for at the time was not so good. I may have had a different impression if I drank it on a different occasion.

taste preference Junmai Ginjo 4.3 Junmai Ginjo★4.4 The Junmai Ginjo was freshly made, so it has a great freshness. The Nakadori is mellower and may be more to your liking. Both are delicious!

taste preference Junmai ★4.4 hot ★3.7 cold Yamahai Junmai ★3.8 hot ★4.0 cold The exact opposite of what you like when it's cold and hot! Everyone raved about the hot Junmai, which was really too delicious, like a dessert. Chocolate, if you ask me! It's like a chocolate. The Yamahai was mellow and delicious when drunk cold.

Taste Preference 4.5 Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama This sake has a very strong and fresh aroma. It also has a sweetness that makes you feel satisfied just by drinking it. I really like it because there is no alcohol tarnish at all, but the umami spreads out.
