Raifuku純米大吟醸 愛山

nono
Gorgeous aroma and taste. Sweet and quite sour. The aftertaste is clean...but the sourness leaves a pretty strong impression? 🤔 Apparently, they use a rose yeast called Princess Michiko, made at Tokyo University of Agriculture. I found it for sale at a booth of Tokyo University of Agriculture at a rag market and bought it without thinking. I bought it at the booth of the University of Agriculture at the rag market...I don't mean that I bought it unintentionally, but it was 3,300 yen for a four-pack, so I honestly had a hard time deciding. (You can buy a good one in a bottle 😅) I thought I drank Aizan recently, so I checked the record and found that Houou Mita Black Phoenix was Aizan. I see that Hououmida Black Phoenix is also Aizan. By the way, the price was 3,960 yen for a bottle. Well...if I knew the taste of both, I would buy the bottle. I am not that picky. But I wanted to try Raifuku, and I was curious about the rose flower yeast, so I had no choice 😂. I saw a student from the University of Agriculture working hard (?) in the strong winds to sell it. They were selling it, but it's sad that I can't really recognize either the University of Agriculture or Princess Michiko from the label. Oh, but if people who see it can recognize it? I don't know, but there's something dreamy about a yeast made in a university! ✨
