It is soft on the palate, but has a robust, robust flavor that is not typical of a 55% polished sake. It has a good sharpness with acidity, making it an excellent mid-meal sake. It might be better to call it "Tokujun".

A summer sake named Hiya, served warm. It has a soft umami and sharpness, and has a slight fresh-stored sake feel on the palate.

R5BY was served warm. It has a soft, full flavor and is crisp and clean. No sense of maturity. Goes well with a bowl of gentle dashi broth.

Tanzan drinking comparison. Next is Shuho. The three photos were taken at Yoneju. Warmed up to 60°C, it has a firm flavor and sharpness without any peculiarities. It softens a bit with air and shows some sweetness, but it does not have the bitter chocolate flavor of Reiho, so it does not seem to be a good match for any meal. Personally, I prefer Shuho and keep it on hand at home for warming.

Re-tasted 6/20. Would the acidity of the raw yeast gentle when paired with meat?

Warmed. It has a softly spreading rice sweetness and umami, with a jungin-like refinement. It has a sharpness, but it is more gentle than Asahi Kiku Rei, which we had just before.

Warmed. It has the refinement of a jungin, but is more robust than the Asahi Kiku Rei that we had just before. The sharpness is not bad either.

R2BY warmed up. The R2BY was drunk about a year ago, but the timing of bottling was different and the sake and acidity levels were also slightly different. The color is clear and colorless despite the aging. It has a soft, full flavor and is best served lukewarm. It has a soft, full flavor, and is best served lukewarm, but when it is cooled, it has a sharp taste.
