Preferred ★★☆☆☆☆☆☆
Akita Sake Party in Akita
The 12th cup: Hiraizumi
We went back to Hirasen to see if we liked Marutobi or the other Hirasens.
The sake was stronger than Marutobi, but less acidic.
It was good, but I found that I definitely preferred Marutobi.
Even though I knew that I preferred Marutobi, I went back to Sugahisa and bought another bottle of Hiraizumi (Yamahai Hyakuda).

I like this one when I'm tired 💪.

HIROSEN HITEN HITEN CHIDORI
There was a Chidori! The color is very different from the one I had at home 😳 ...and now that I look closer, it says the brewing year is 2020!
Delicious 😋.

HIRASEN HITEN HAKUCHO Type C
So, I bought it at the "Young Dawn 2025" event because I was told that it would be sold in advance at the event!
It's a sweet and sour brew made with No. 77 yeast, Yamahai yeast, and white malted rice...

FUKAAI Prensented by Jusai PROJECT
The second brew of the "Wakate no Yoake 2025" was also from Tobirazumi!
This one was brewed with yeast No. 7 instead of No. 77.
This one is made with No. 7 yeast, not No. 77, and has a refined taste, not the usual sourness. It is also delicious in its own way.

HIRASEN HITEN HAKUCHO Type C
I participated in "Young Dawn 2025" last year, and this year I had a small part in it again.
I went to the Tobirazumi booth!
The 27th generation brewer was there 😊.
The sake was made with yeast No. 77, Yamahai yeast, white malted rice, and my favorite acidity factor, and sweetness! Delicious!
