The second cup was Hirotogawa.
It is labeled "special junmai" (as was the first cup, Bunkajin), but the rice polishing ratio is 55%, so the taste is quite clear and clean.
The aroma is also subdued, but the soft umami and sweetness of the rice spreads in the mouth. Of course, the sharpness is good.
The gradation of flavors from the first cup is nice. The timing of the transition from knob to nigiri takes it up a gear.
One of the three major new sake nigori!
We were able to encounter it again this year.
Freshness in a roundness. The umami flavor also spreads properly.
Delicious ^ ^ ^.
This is the first Hirotogawa nigori I have had. The taste is as good as the rumors say. Nigori sake at this time of year is really delicious.
I hope to have a chance to drink it again.
I dare to drink outside when I have a bottle at home
Because it's too good to waste...
Now, let's eat it.
Is it the aroma of peach?
And it's so fresh. It's fruity and has a pleasant acidity, but the lingering flavor lingers on.
It is still delicious.
Good morning, Kosuke 😃.
We have a four-part bottle but we got it safely the other day 🤗Prepared and confirmed the taste! I'll want to review it right away 😋.
Hi Dr. Jay & Dr. Nobby 😃
Last year I could only drink outside and I was mentally unstable 😆 This year it's a bottle so I'll be able to have a peaceful mind ❤️ lol It's just delicious!
The very popular Hirotogawa nigori was flying off the shelves at liquor stores, but we were lucky enough to get our hands on some.
After opening the bottle easily, automatic stirring started. Needless to say, the taste was delicious and stable this year as well. We were very satisfied with the high quality as expected.
Good morning, kiko 😃
We too found 2 bottles left at the liquor store over the weekend and were able to get it! It's stable deliciousness 😋I look forward to drinking it every year 🤗.
You all have mentioned it!
For nigori lovers, this is irresistible.
This piquancy, sweet and sour, and bitterness.
Is the richness that spreads in the mouth a temporary satisfaction?
It's been a while since I've posted, but I'm so happy to be in the season of new sake!
Today's drink of the day is opened here 💁.
It is Hirotogawa Junmai Nigori Nama Sake from Fukushima Prefecture.
It is as consistently delicious as ever. ☺️
We are very grateful to the sake brewery and all the people involved for allowing us to enjoy it again this year 🙏.
