It's gassy and schwaggy. The aroma is quite fruity. The aroma is quite fruity, and the taste is refreshing, somewhere between dry and sweet. I have the impression that it hits the perfect balance between dry and sweet. The impression of "Gohkei-shiki" has been improved. I can't drink it because I don't usually see it 😅.

Good morning, Mr. Manachie! It's a hiya oroshi, but it's fresh and tasty, maybe because it's gassy 😉.

The aroma is already highly acidic. When you drink it, it tastes mildly sweet with yogurt and yakult-like nuances. Interesting taste and delicious. It's not sold very often (I usually only see it at Yodobashi), so I don't get to drink it very often, but so far I haven't had any Tamanjoken hassles.

Miyakotsuru is one of the most minor and rarely seen sake from the Meimon Shukai. You can only find it in Kyoto or at Heiwado. There was a hiyaoroshi fair at the Hanshin Department Store in Nishinomiya, and the lineup of hiyaoroshi from all over Japan was breathtaking. I think there were more than 100 different kinds of sake, mainly from Meimon Sake Kai. I bought several bottles from among them. There were many I wanted, but my budget and quantity limited me to 3 bottles. It doesn't say it, but I searched for it and found that it is a raw sake. The rice is Kyo-no-kiraki and Shuku-mai. The yeast is Kyo no Hana. Banana-like flavor. It also has a slightly ripe taste. It has sweetness, spiciness, and freshness, so you can enjoy various aspects of the sake. It has a strong nutty taste.

ゆーへー

bouken, good evening! It was until yesterday... If I had known that, I would have finished it in the neighborhood without having to go through that trouble.

Good evening, Mr. Yoohee. During the period, we had a wider selection than the department store in Umeda 😊 Some of the items may continue to be sold after the end of the period, so it might be a good idea to go there just in case you don't like it😃.

The Hanshin Department Store in Nishinomiya is a hole-in-the-wall where you can find a wide variety of sake related to the Meimon Sake Association, which you won't find at local sake shops. The store is somewhere between a department store and a supermarket, but it is not to be underestimated. I sometimes check it out in the winter when the sake is freshly pressed and in the summer when the sake is unpasteurized. Amagasaki Hanshin also has a large selection of Kaygetsu. I heard this is the second test brew, but I wonder what the first one was? The name sounds like a Mazda convertible 🚗. As written, it smells like bananas. Juicy sweet flavor and freshness like a fresh sake. I haven't had Koshi in a while, but it's consistently good.

I think it's sweeter the longer it's been open.

The sweetness and spiciness are gentle. The aroma is also mild.... But when I drank it again, it was quite sweet. It's a mature taste. And when I drank it more than 3 days after opening the package, it became more sweet and sour, more juicy, and more delicious. It's a sake that undergoes a mysterious change. The taste is also a little unique. The way the acidity comes out is unique. At first I wrote that it had no personality, but I'm sorry.

Sweet, bitter, and spicy are all understated, and it goes down easy. It doesn't have much character or personality, but it's good to drink with a meal. There is not much freshness. It is a little too mature for me.

It's also lightly aged and flickers.

It's a strong drink as it hasn't changed in over a week since I opened it. Is it suitable for aging?

I've been looking for it for about 2 years. I've been looking for it for about two years now. It's clean, with a slight sweetness that converges with a crisp dryness. It's spicier than the seal-labeled Hiyaoroshi I drank before.
