when I first had this sake, I thought it was a uncommon type of sake known as yamahai which is known for its gamier, earthier qualities derived from what might be considered the equivalent of a “natural yeast fermentation” in the winemaking world. But it turns out this is merely a modest junmai sake that happens to be dancing to its own rhythm in the mouth. A sake for the more adventurous ones! Serve warmed, but not hot, or at room temperature.

Yoshidagura Yasu Special 2019 This a special sake made by Tedorigawa brewery once a year. Specializing in using the local rice Ishikawamon and sticky rice (10%) and Kanazawa yeast. I never had a sake that uses sticky rice! Yamahai style and 14% alcohol. Really juicy flavor with peach and kaki notes.

Pasteurised sake. Shinriki rice, Fukuoka yeast n 44 and Koji Hishiroku n 430. +2 Yama Kujira Sake is the fourth in the annual collaboration series between director - producer Tsui Mark, Okra Hong Kong and Wakatakeya. This one is pasteurised, they made the Nama version too. Really oily notes and crushed velvet. I had a really acidic feeling for the first two sips but after that became toma really pleasant and balance taste.

Yoshi Yamamoto, the president of Yucho Shuzo, including other sake brewers, surprise us with the elaboration of these TWO ALPHA 7 with a clear and clean impression. Light, rich and complex. Both made with the same rice at 70% but with different grade profile +10 (light) and grade -10 (Full), and different acidity’s, around 1.5 for the light and 3.0 for Full. There are several flavors that we can create mixing them, always depending on the person, and the food that you are having at that moment.

The new series of Yamaguchi based on number 9 yeast. Of the 3 in the series, I liked this one the best. It is best on the second day as the residual CO2 in the bottle, although once a quite unique trademark of Kaze no Mori and Takacho has become increasingly trite in recent years and difficult to enjoy with food. Although very interesting, this is quite a departure from the balanced acidity and richness that I have grown to love about yamaguchi over the last 15 or years that I have Enjoyed them.
