Fukuoka souvenir from my daughter (2)
Haruyoshi Haruyoshi 05" 🍶 The specifications are completely undisclosed, so all I know is that it's junmai (pure rice). I don't know😅.
HARUYOSHI x KITAYA" has a pale, clear color that gives a clean impression from the moment it is poured into a cup. The elegant aroma is reminiscent of white peaches and pears, with a hint of sweetness from the rice. In the mouth, the supple umami spreads, and the sweetness and acidity harmonize to create a soft, round flavor. The sweetness and umami disappear as if washed away, leaving only a refreshing aftertaste 😋.
I will drink it while thinking of the town of Haruyoshi, which I have yet to see, while regretting that my refrigerator is getting lonely.
This sake is made with Fukuoka's original sake rice "Yume-Ichiken" and in-house developed KR02 yeast.
It has a slightly light flavor...light taste...with a subtle sweetness in the spiciness.
It is the perfect sake for a meal that makes the most of its ingredients!
Sake made with original yeast KR02.
Starting with a refreshing sweetness... a pleasant bitterness passes down the throat... an exquisite sake with an exquisite taste!

Refreshingly fruity with a hint of sweetness
Slightly dry, clean and crisp
It is characterized by its acidity and umami.
The aroma is very fruity.
When you drink it, contrary to your imagination, it has a strong bitter taste and is dry.
I had it with the Akinatai fish.
The best marriage.
I knew it was a Fukuoka sake, but I never knew it was from Yame🍵 sake brewery.
I often drink it hot at izakaya (Japanese style pubs).
I was given a set of the Kataya sake to compare, so here's to that!
I was going to write down my impressions of each one cold, but it got lost in a mishap💦.
I remember the Junmai Daiginjo was the one I liked the best.
The aroma and taste was the best for sweet sake lovers 🍶.
