First of all, the label is unique! It stylishly depicts the process of making Aki-agari.
The aroma is soft and pleasant, the flavor of rice spreads softly, and the taste is clean and dry. It is very easy to drink ✨.
I'm enjoying Hidakami in autumn with sashimi 🙌!
HIKKAMI Junmai Aki-agari
Made from 100% Yamadanishiki produced in Hyogo Prefecture, fire-aged.
Hikkami is famous as a sake that goes well with sushi, but this time we tried the "Autumn Agari" version.
The aroma is subdued, with lychee-like nuances.
Mild on the palate with no tanginess.
The mid-palate has a clear acidity and a subtle umami flavor.
The aftertaste is clear with a hint of bitterness and acidity.
Overall, it is mild and mild.
It was a bit out of place with sashimi, but it was a perfect marriage with vinegared dishes.
Maybe the "match with sushi" is the "vinegared rice" element...?
Preferred score: 7.0/10
Aroma: 1.5｜Mouthfeel: 1.0｜Medium: 1.0｜Final taste: 1.5｜Price: 2.0
→ I realized again how difficult it is to make a marriage with autumn sake. But that is also the fun of sake 🍁.
→ Now that I know what type my wife and father-in-law like, I decided not to ask for scores in the future.
Good morning, Kozhikozy 😃.
We also had it the year before last 😋It's soft and tasty rather than sharp and crisp! We tend to pair it with red meat sashimi 🧐 but we think everything is good 😄.

We are in Sendai.
The Mecca of sake is full of autumn sake😋.
This one...
Slightly fragrant and fresh aroma and mellow taste peculiar to autumn sake.
It's a good start 😁.
The ginjo aroma is more pear than banana, with a rice aroma rather than floral, the attack is not too strong, and the aftertaste is clear. It is good with fish, such as sashimi and grilled fish. It is the first time in a long time that I drank it, and it was delicious.
It's been a long time since I've had Hidakami. The flavor and crispness is as amazing as ever. Today we had saury sashimi and sea bream grilled and frosted...it goes incredibly well with fish. ❤️
It tastes great cold or warmed up 🍶.
The second one is Hidakami.

This one is THE dry.
It has acidity, but it goes well with sashimi.
It is especially good with salmon.
Good morning, soumacho!
We had a lot of drinks at the party after the date had changed 🎵.
The sake is spicy, but with a great flavor, it's also great with a meal 😋.
Good morning, ma-ki-😃.
The day had changed when I posted and I had to put it in the text 🙇💦.
My apologies 🙏💦.
The salmon fat and hikakami were a perfect match for the day 😋.
The day before yesterday, I had a drink at an old-fashioned Japanese izakaya in Kanda. The staff's service was wonderful. On my way home, I bought a bottle I liked and decided to take it home.
Today, I opened the bottle! Spicy, delicious, always wanting to be by your side, Wish You Were Here, such a sense of security.
Good morning, misguided daughter!
I had a bottle of Hitakami-san's super-hot sake a while ago, and it is a delicious sake that is not only hot but also tasty and goes great with meals 😋.
