This is the second bottle of Hoshisen I bought in Nara!
Slightly effervescent, rich sweetness like lychee.
It has a slightly dry atmosphere and is sweeter than the No. 5 yeast.
It also has a burnt candy-like taste.
I wish there were more stores where I could buy it.
Sake limited to 6 stores nationwide. Purchased from Noboru Sake Shop in Tenri.
After ordering from takeshon Sake Shop, I always wanted to go there to buy it. This is the only store in the Kansai region that specializes in Hoshisen.
They have an overwhelming selection of famous Nara sake.
There are many brands other than Nara that are not available in Kansai, such as Kenshin, Tenka Nishiki, Librom, Shikishima, and Hoshizumi.
This time, I only went to Hoshizumi because there were other sake shops I wanted to visit.
It has a flavor like Kyoho grapes and a slightly milky taste. It is more refreshing than the Hiragana series, but sweet and delicious. The lingering sweetness of the 🍇 flavor is long.
The No. 5 yeast is said to have originated from Kamotsuru.
I wonder if Hoshiizumi is a segregated series that uses Hiragana two-digit yeast and Kanji yeast, which is no longer used in modern times.
Good evening, bouken 🌙
I didn't know there was a store in Kansai that sells it 😳‼️ for some reason, there are some attractive liquor stores in far away places 😅.
I'd love to taste the Kyoho flavor ❣️
Good evening, Ponchan 😃.
This was the main reason I went to Nara 😆.
They used to come to department stores for tasting and selling but recently they stopped coming 😥The stores where you can buy Hoshisen in Chinese characters are limited even in Japan so they are very valuable dealers 🤗.
Good evening, bouken!
Noboru Sake Shop is one of my favorites too, they have a great selection👍.
I always get lost 👀 when I go there to buy 😅.
I haven't tried Hoshisen yet, so I'll definitely try it someday ✊.
Good evening, bouken🌛I went to Noboru Sake Shop on Saturday and picked up this sake that I was also interested in... but I didn't know it was that rare💦I bought Abe, Shikishima and Tenka Nishiki 😅I was also confused about the perverted sake Nippon Spirit 🤣.
Hi, Mr. Hissan, good evening 😃
I came here for HOSHIZUMI, but I thought I might quit and buy some sake. I was so busy that I thought 🤣They use the same rice and different yeast to make different kinds of sake, so it's very interesting. Please give it a try 😁.
Good evening, Nemuchi 😃.
I know many of you have been to Noboru-san recently 😁Masha-san also went there 🙄I gave up on Tenga Nishiki and Shikishima in tears 😭I stopped at the shelf of Nihon Soul after seeing Nemuchisan's post 🤣.
Good evening, Mr. Rabbit 🐰
Yes, this is it 😁.
No.5 yeast originated from Kamotsuru and is not used much anymore 🤔.
The other bottle I bought is also No. 8 yeast, which is a rare yeast 😊.
That assortment of products makes me go on a spending spree 🤣.
I was very impressed with the 14 yeast light nigori before, and I've been drinking the same yeast for about 3 years now.
Jacket price ... 4/10
The green letters on the green bottle looks a little cheap.
Ki ... 15/20
It is already cloudy without lees sedimentation.
The nose is supposed to be clear, but the attack on the tip of the tongue and the young sweet flavor diffuse gradually.
The sequence of flow is refreshing.
The balance between the strong acidity that covers the tongue and the slightly sweet flavor is exquisite.
The rising sublimation smell of high Alc component is developing.
Turning... 15/20
→The smell of sublimation with a high Alc component that rises, while it gradually changes to a malted rice type → Finally, it becomes a young one that is close to a melon aroma.
It is the peak of sweetness, but various information intersects.
Yui ... 15/20
It is not perfect, but it leaves a sweet aftertaste.
Costa ... 9/10
The price was 1,650 yen, which is a good price for such a well-made wine.
It is not perfect, but it leaves a sweet aftertaste.
Sake: It doesn't seem to be +11. 74points
The top aroma is of cotton candy, Japanese pear, water orange, plum, and sweet and sour. The taste is clear and watery, with the same sweet and sour flavor as the aroma, with a hint of astringency and bitterness. The taste is clear like water, with the same sweet and sour flavor as the aroma, with a hint of astringency and bitterness. The mouthfeel is refreshing and clean, like a soft drink.
This is Bozu Nagoya Ekimae Branch.
First, Hoshizumi, Junmai Ginjo.
I went back to my parents' house in Nagoya for the first time in 4 years.
First, I took the Shinkansen to Nagoya Station with my wife Bibi, had a drink at a restaurant near the station, and then moved to each other's parents' house.
We enjoyed dote-ni, miso kushikatsu, miso oden, and yakitori (grilled chicken), and had Taiwanese ramen for dinner.
Hoshizumi was fruity but had a clean aftertaste. I would have liked to have had some brewer's kuheiji, but unfortunately it was sold out that day. More to come.
Hi MC takeshon 😃
I didn't know you were doing such a fun thing 😁.
Please invite me next time you do it ❗️
I probably won't be able to make it though 🤣.
Hi brother Chichi 😃
Tokyo is great with lots of cheap places to drink 😋Next time I'm in Nagoya or real mahjong club activities in Susukino🤣Susukino must be 3 nights to enjoy it!
The last and the big winner of the last sake from takeshon liquor store.
Comparison with No. 14. Pineapple-like aroma. Slightly effervescent. Pineapple-like sweetness with bitterness. The aroma that passes through the nose is also gorgeous pineapple. This is delicious.
Too much pineapple to be a pineapple 🤣.
I heard it gets sweeter after a few days, so we'll see how it goes.
Surprisingly, No. 14 has a lower sake content.
I feel like the pineapple flavor is even stronger after 3 days 😁.
I can smell the aroma of 🍍 even from a distance 🤣.
It has a syrupy feel to it like Manachy said. It's like canned pineapple.
Hello bouken, ☀️
Yesterday, Hoshizumi! I was thinking, you compared the drinks! I haven't experienced the can-like pineapple feeling 😳‼️ I'm curious 😆.
Good evening, bouken! 😄
I've been looking for a place to buy some of this stuff for a while now. 🤣Hoshizumi is another brand to check out, but I'll start by finding out where it's sold 😆👍
Good evening, Ponchan 😃.
There are other pineapple drinks, but it's like drinking a thick pineapple with the juice of the can 🤣.
The pineapple concentrate may be somewhat similar to Takachiyo Summer Blue 🤔.
MAJ-san Good evening 😃takeshon liquor store has everything! I don't know about that 🙄 but in the Kanto area, that famous Yajima liquor store seems to carry it 😊.
One of the mainstays in sake from takeshon liquor store.
I was anxious to open it because Mr. Manachy said it looked grassy😅.
The rice is Yume Ginko.
Sweet aroma. It definitely has a lychee-like flavor. Bitter taste from juicy flavor like raisins.
Fades out with lingering bitterness.
It's been 3 days since the bottle was opened, but I think the sweet and sourness is coming out. Bitterness from sweet and sourness. I think the sweetness is coming out more than the first day.
On the 5th day after opening the bottle, the sweetness seems to have increased.
The sweetness is like a candy.
Good evening, bouken-san 🤣Well, I guess mine was a miss 🤣Well, sake deteriorates as much as possible after bottling, so no wonder 🤣It really tastes good 😆.
Good evening, Mr. Manachie.
I think you probably got the wrong one 🤣I've bought sake that people around me were raving about and it deteriorated many times, so I thought it's a common occurrence with sake 🤔.
I have never had Maruichi Sake Brewery, although it is quite close to me, and I had wanted to try it after reading Tokopo's post... I cheated on my last purchase with nigori sake and went to the brewery to buy some when they ran out of nigori sake.
It's fresh and easy to drink.
It is unfiltered raw so be careful not to drink too much ⚠️
My former boss is from Agui, and when we held a "Sake 🍶 meeting" on the island, we were allowed to drink Hoshizumi🍶.
It is easy to drink, isn't it? I've never been to a sake brewery either, but I'm hoping to visit one someday...!
At first it smells and tastes like pineapple.
Later on, a slight bitterness is felt and goes away easily.
Maybe it's a combination problem.
I don't think it is suitable as a food wine.
I think it is better to drink it alone.
