Second day of business trip to Fukuoka. Visited a liquor store in the Hakata Station building, which is actually another branch of yesterday's liquor store.
I bought a bottle of Jinden, which I had never seen in Tokyo! (but it is in Kumamoto).
The aroma is sweet and sour with a hint of lactic acidity, typical of the Hananaka Shuzo brand.
It is refreshing from the first sip to the finish. The slightly strong alcohol content in the middle of the bottle can be said to be a characteristic of affordable sake, but the white flower aroma that lingers faintly in the aftertaste is gorgeous, reminiscent of ginjo-shu, despite the low price.
I was envious of those who live in Fukuoka, where you can buy a cup of sake from a major sake brewery at a convenience store and enjoy it so much 😄.
