＜Sweet, bitter, powerful, fruity
Yuki Sake Brewery's second consecutive release.
This sake miraculously survived in the refrigerated warehouse of the Yuki Brewery, which lost two buildings in a fire on May 11.
The aroma is a robust flavor of fragrant grains and brown rice. It also has a hint of sweetness.
In the mouth, it has a gentle, slightly carbonated taste. And then, the low-polished, robust umami and acidity comes in with a whammy! It has a strong graininess and is quite powerful. But it also has a fruity flavor, and it tastes gradually delicious. Interesting!
This is the same Akaban Omachi and has some similarities to Michikozakura. However, the rice polishing ratio of 60 and 90 is quite different. This one is even more powerful.
If we were to use a Ghibli analogy, it would be Shokichi, the main character in "Heisei Raccoon War Ponpoko". It has the strength of a stubborn survivor, the bitterness of having his friends destroyed, and the sweet-sourness of being in love with Okiyo.
Satisfaction: ★★★★

<Kura Collaboration - Rich sweetness and firm bitterness
This sake was brewed by Michiko Urasato, the toji at Yuki Shuzo in Ibaraki Prefecture, who recently disappeared due to family matters, at the Michizakura Brewery in Hokkaido. Michiko x Sanzen Sakura = Michikozakura!
The aroma is peach fruity with a hint of bitter alu-howan.
On the palate, it is sweet and bitter from the start. The rich sweetness of banana melon full of sugar and a firm bitterness. Yum!
The aftertaste is also rich in sweetness and continues slowly.
It also goes well with cream cheese chicken nuggets. However, it is a little different from the equal sake and food pairing. The strength of Michikozakura-san's flavor combines with the cheese and chicken to make it even more delicious.
If I were to use a Ghibli analogy, it would be Okiyo from "Heisei Raccoon War Ponpoko". She is the girlfriend of the main character, Shokichi. She's a raccoon dog, but she's cute! I want to mooch on her belly!
Okiyo and Shokichi survive and mix with human society even after the story is over. I hope Yuki Brewery survives and revives too!
I'm rooting for you!

The aroma is sweet and slightly bitter.
It is very soft on the palate. It may be due to the fact that the temperature was around 10℃ to 15℃ from the beginning, but it comes in very smoothly.
The taste is gently sweet and bitter. From there, the sweetness and bitterness swells up softly.

This is the pod from "Arrietty the Borrower" in the Ghibli movie "The Borrower". He is the father of Arrietty. He is a gentle and austere father. He is gentle, but there is a bitter umami taste in the back.
