A soft, alcohol scent wafts up to the nose. A very slight tingle on the tongue—maybe the alcohol's sharpness? No harsh edges, but the acidity is quite strong, wrapped in the softness of rice or alcohol. It doesn't make your mouth pucker, but the acidity is intense—apparently this year's batch is especially tart. The acidity gives it a refreshing impression, yet the flavor itself lingers gently on the tongue. It paired disastrously with white fish sashimi.
Thank you for your continued support this year 🙇 I've been slacking off a lot 💦.

Delicious... lukewarm lukewarm...
I had to follow Shikatarou's example and drink some of the local Kanagawa sake ✨.
Please apple, does it feel like apple🍎🤔The description states that it is made with malic acid high producing yeast and not using apples, and the internet says it is an adult cider 😋So what's it like?
It smells like rice. It has a gentle mouthfeel and the gas is chili.
It's crisp, acidic, and flavorful! The aftertaste is also very sour. It is honestly sour 🫣.
If this is the case, I wonder what it would be like hot 🤔.
Lukewarm
Mild on the palate, but the umami is the same as cold and the sourness is noticeable.
Hot warmed
Sour with a tingling sensation😅
Hot-warmed and cooled
It's still the easiest to drink, but it's very sour and acidic 😅
It's not like apple all the time but more like apple cider vinegar? If you like sourness, please give it a try!
Good evening, ichiro18! It looks like a rare label that I have never seen before🤣The name is also unique‼️I was curious and went to the brewery's website and found it to be very tasteful and nice! I'm suddenly interested in Zanso Hourai too‼️
Good morning, ichiro18 😃.
Please give me some apples 🍎Cute! 😍Something calming about this label ☺️
But it tastes sour 😆.
I like sweet and sour, but I'm not sure about this one 🧐.
Good morning, ichiro18 😃.
Your spirit of challenge to make this jackets & cider flavor into heated sake is heavenly😇.
I learned a lot from your review of heated sake 📚.
Good morning, Shikatarou 😃.
It looks so un-Japanese sake, it catches my attention 🥰I'll try again as I'm also interested in Queen by Sesso Hourai. Shikatarou-san would love to ✨
Good morning, Pinocchio 😃.
I was curious because it's different from your usual Zanso Hourai label ✨If you like ciders and vinegar drinks, you should definitely try it, although it's not very sweet 🥰.
Good morning, HinaHanaMama 😃.
I felt it was different from sweet and sour 😅I'm not good at too sour, so maybe I felt it was too much, but I guess you should try it if you have a chance.
Hi Hiro, good morning 😃
I was not a fan of sour so I tried many things 😅 I also wanted to see what it would be like if I let it sit for a while with soda 🤣 if there is room in the fridge.
