Juicy, sweet, delicious!
Maybe a little more acidity in the aftertaste than the rest of the series?
The impression is that the sake is refreshing and can be enjoyed on its own or with a meal.
When served cold, it is light and has a clean aftertaste, but a bit astringent.
When heated, the refreshing taste remains, but the umami increases and the astringent taste disappears, giving a relaxing taste.
When I paired it with Camembert cheese, the two became so well blended that I couldn't stop drinking it.
Serve cold.
It is gaseous and lactic acid-like (?). It is 70% polished rice but has a clean aftertaste.
Goes well with chicken steak. It was not so good with yellowtail sashimi.
Top warmed up to hot
Sourness and a little astringency stand out and are refreshing.
I prefer the Yamahai Honjozo I had before because it is richer.
Room temperature
The aroma is mountain haku, but it is lighter and maybe easier to drink than honjozo.
It has a fruity and light flavor that goes well with a glass of wine.
It went well with the garlic butter shoyu lamb steak.
I think it can be easily paired with both meat and seafood.
Fruity & a little juicy, it can be drunk on its own. My personal favorite taste, not too sweet and can be drunk a lot without getting bored.
Goes surprisingly well with chocolate.
When served cold, the sweetness and umami are kept to a minimum and the taste is refreshing. When warmed to lukewarm, it has a more refined aroma and umami, which I like.
It was delicious when paired with oyaki.
Not too much ori.
It is very good when heated up. I think it can be paired with any kind of food, Japanese, Western or Chinese.
It has a mature aroma and flavor, and a bit of astringency when served cold, but when it's heated up, the astringency disappears and the flavor spreads, leaving a clean aftertaste that makes it hard to stop drinking.
It's also inexpensive, so it's perfect for everyday drinking.
Next time, I will buy a bottle of the same Honjozo or Junmai.
