First Shirakikyu. It has a deep and clear flavor typical of autumn sake, and has a good sharpness. It gives the impression of being a versatile all-around food sake.
The name "Hakusugi" is derived from the brewer's family name "Shirasugi", which is written as "Hakusui"...something like that.
I was expecting a metamorphic sake ...... which was brewed using black malted rice for the sake mother and the second and fourth stages, and yellow malted rice for the first and third stages.
Fresh pichi shuwa! Although it has a unique flavor with a little bitterness, the sweet and sourness is not very distinctive, and even seems to cancel each other out, so I was a little disappointed.
The nose is of apples and fresh citrus fruits. Slightly yellowish with bubbles. Legs are thin and weak.
Sake made with Koshihikari rice and black malted rice. It is a rare combination, and the sake is bottle-fired only once, which shows the brewery's commitment to quality.
The aroma is a mixture of subtle ginjo aroma and cocoa nuance. Is it my imagination?
It started with a mild sweetness, followed by a bunch of light citrus juicy acidity. The aftertaste leaves a bit of citrus bitterness, and then it just hangs on.
It's a type I haven't had very often, but it's delicious.
Sweet and sour, delicious cold, room temperature 221110
Three types of koji (white, black, and yellow) are used
Tastes like wine
The label is also somewhat stylish

It arrived in the October hanpukai.
I think this is the first time I have had a bottle of Hakusugi since the Ginshari I had at Yamanoha.
Before opening the bottle, my hand slipped and I dropped it on the floor, but I opened it without difficulty.
What a beautiful taste! It's amazing how Koshihikari can be transformed into such a delicious sake. ‼️
By the way, the hanpukai ended this month.
I'm thinking of continuing it next month 😃.

It is a refreshing sake. It's like a refreshing sake.
It tasted best cold. ☺️ It seemed like all the goodness was drowned out when it got to room temperature.
