At a friend's house.
First, let's start with the summer sake I was interested in, Summer Boulud: 🏝️
It's a nigori sake with a firm sweet and sour to crispiness that makes it easy to drink lol.
It was really tasty!
I was at my favorite liquor store and saw a bottle of Hayakawa Sake Brewery's Early Spring, which is brewed with Tamitsu, in stock today.
Hayakawa Shuzo's Early Spring, which is brewed by Hayakawa Brewery, was available at my favorite liquor store today, so I immediately bought it and opened the bottle.
Fruity taste with malic acid!
This is delicious!

Early Spring Summer Bourru
Yes, this is a summer sake from Hayakawa Brewery.
I thought it was Tamitsu, but the brand name is Hayaharu.
Although I say that I don't like summer sake, I have been aiming for this Bourru for a year now.
It is a light nigori sake, so I opened the bottle thinking that it would not be lacking in flavor.
It is served cold.
When the bottle is opened, there is a short gas sound.
The color is a light cloudy milky white.
The top aroma is citrusy. It is grapefruit-like.
On the palate, there is not much gasiness, and despite the light nigorigo, it is smooth and smooth without any cloying taste.
On the palate, the nigori rice flavor spreads slightly in the mouth, followed by a sourness that spreads after swallowing, reminding one of the sweet bitterness of citrus fruits.
It is grapefruit-like after all.
The bitter aftertaste is short-lived, leaving the taste refreshing and refreshing.
Neither the label nor the taste is very sake-like, but... it is delicious.
Ingredients: Rice (domestic), Rice Koji (domestic)
Polishing ratio: Koji rice 55%, Kake rice 60
Alcohol content: 15
All sake is made from pure rice brewed in a tank and pressed with the blessings of mountain grates and underground water from Shakagatake in the Suzuka Mountains.
The brewer's passion for sake is expressed by carefully balancing the sake as a whole by drawing out the characteristics of each rice.
Bourru = Nigori (nigori)
Bourru = nigori (a refreshing sourness and sweetness). It is a light nigori special junmai sake with a rich aroma suitable for summer.

It still has the same pineapple-like sweetness, but with more grapefruit-like freshness and bitterness than the 23 year? It's delicious!
More summery, refreshing and easy to drink!
I wasn't sure when it would arrive,
I asked the liquor store, "Do you have any summer boulleu?" I asked the liquor store, "Do you have any summer bourroux? Now! I was surprised. What is it? I was just about to ask, when I came upon the toji-san carrying cardboard boxes from his truck. It might have been the first and last time I bought directly from the cardboard boxes that had just arrived, not from the liquor store's refrigerator.
I had such memories.
Come to think of it, it has "Tamitsu" on the lid, which I didn't have in 23 years. Maybe I'll drink some more Tamitsu.
Summer bourru of 2023
Luxury to be able to compare with 24 years
Sweet and refreshing aroma and taste like pineapple. Fruity with a slightly bitter aftertaste, it was very easy to drink without any sweetness. Delicious! And cheap!
They say it comes in every year around 2-3 weeks in June.
A colleague at work said that only nigori (cloudy) sake would win.
I warned him that it was not the nigori-style sake that I like.
It was slightly white.
As the name "summer nigori" suggests, it has a refreshing acidity. It is easy to drink and has a gentle taste on the palate.
My colleague said it was different from the muddiness he was expecting. However, they seriously learned that there is such a thing as this.
Hello, Nochi-san!
I guess your colleague was thinking of new sake nigori sake 😊.
I also drank this one and it was great and easy to drink with a summer sake feel👍
