Ryuseiゆらぎの凪 八反純米

Purchased at a liquor store. It is a limited series of Ryusei, which has a cool name anyway. Last time, I had a bottle of Wakami no Dry (red label) and Hibi Nikkaku (green label). As I myself am a Dracula fan, the former reminded me of Master Dragon and the latter of Shinryu when I compared them to dragon series. The same is true this time. The aroma is invigorating, not fresh, but green, like a forest. The first sip is surprisingly tart and somewhat heavy. The aftertaste is strongly acidic, and may have the longest aftertaste of the three we drank. According to the official website, at first glance it appears to be quiet and delicate, but it also has a surprisingly unique side, and the deeper you get into a relationship with it, the more attractive it becomes. I found this very clear in my drinking. Then, "Great Dragon," who is a powerful and dignified enemy in Dracula V, but an ace-class existence if he becomes a friend, is very appropriate. The remaining limited series is the lineage of innocence (gray label). Is he the "Dragon King"?

Purchased at a liquor store. Like one previous post, it is one of the LIMITED SERIES. I hope you can refer to my previous post for more details. It was served cold, as it was written that cold sake is better. No aroma here either. It has a broad flavor with no cloying taste, probably due to the fact that it is made from Yamadanishiki. The lingering aftertaste is longer than that of Hachitan-nishiki. I think it would go well with something sour and acidic. The official description says, "Always a good student with excellent grades, an all-around honor student type. Cool, smart and popular". As in the previous issue, this one, too, can be compared to the "Shinryu" that appeared in the III Dracula series, which is popular while being strong enough to be an appropriate back-boss. The other two limited series are "Hachikan 35" and "Yumachi." Which one is the "Dragon King," who has great ambition and maintains an aura of supremacy and strength? I would love to purchase the next one.

Bought it at a liquor store. I bought it because of its cool name. It is one of the Limited Series, which is sake made using the raw rice of each type of sake rice. I didn't notice much aroma. The taste is light and full-bodied. It is neither weak nor strong, and has a well-balanced taste. It is gradually and slowly felt. The official website describes it as "a food sake that is easy to match with any food," and it went with just about everything. Also, the image of the character was described as "a cheerful mood-maker with a beloved character. As a Dracula fan myself, I can compare him to the "Master Dragon" who appeared in the sky works and has a noble aura, but can also be kind to humans.

Slightly fragrant ginjo aroma, slightly yellowish. The full, voluminous flavor of the rice spreads out. The mouthfeel is slightly hard and firm. The aftertaste is quite long. I drank it cold. It is perfect as a food sake.
