Hanami Romain has the lowest alcohol content of the Romain series at 13%. It is a ginjo-shu limited to spring. It has a soft, light and refreshing taste that can be enjoyed during the season when parties such as cherry blossom viewing are on the rise. All brands are made with 55% polished rice, Gohyakumangoku, Yumenokou, and Himenomochi, and are "four-stage brewed" with glutinous rice. Sake is usually brewed in a three-stage process, in which water, koji, and rice are separated into three separate batches. The method of brewing with steamed glutinous rice is called four-stage brewing. The result is a refreshing yet gentle flavor with a richness that is unique to Hanazono. It has a clear taste with sweetness and umami, and can be served warmed.
