I opened a bottle of Hiran, which I had left a little bit!
Sad that you can't even buy it in the online store these days...
I like the feeling on the day of opening (I drink it with fish like sashimi), but after 2 days, I feel I can drink it with any kind of food.
This is a special bottle that is positioned as the pinnacle of the Hiraan range. 100% Yamada-Nishiki produced locally in Hirado is used and polished to 39%. It is brewed using the traditional sake yeast. How does it taste?
It has a clean and beautiful taste that is typical of highly polished sake. It has no peculiarities and has a nice aroma that anyone can enjoy. However, it also has a unique character that comes from the sake's nama yeast, and I sensed a creamy orangey citrus flavor.
Sometimes when I drink high-end sake, I notice a lot of things.
Good morning, Yutaka!
Congratulations on your 100 check-ins 🎉.
It's great when a milestone sake becomes your favorite sake 🤤!
Have a great sake life 🤗!
Yutaka, congratulations on your 100 check-in✅㊗️🥳
I'm jealous because I haven't been able to get it lately 😄.

A slightly unusual sake with a QR code that allows you to check the rice and brewing method by drinking the sake. It has a sour taste and is easy to drink and goes well with meals.
This is what I think of when I think of "Hiran"! This is actually the second bottle of Kagura ⛩️ that I have purchased.
It's a pleasant bottle with a fresh citrus aroma and acidity, while still retaining the Aslan's typical rummy feel 🍋.
I used to bring home grilled chicken with sauce to pair with it 🦤.
It was my best friend as a sweet and salty lover because it goes well with sweet and salty side dishes 🤝.

I think I had a juice or something with a similar taste somewhere, but I can't remember what it was.
