Hirakou Sake Brewery's Hitakami, which I have been a big fan of since the Sakelabo 10th anniversary event. This is the autumn harvest.
It has the image of a clean, dry sake that goes well with fish, but this one has a mellow flavor like the collaboration sake with Tomita Sake Brewery that we had at the event.
I have the impression that the aging process has mellowed the flavor of this sake, but I like it.
It is not sweet, but just mild enough to give a good sense of umami, which is my favorite flavor.
I love fruity sake like Senkou, Shinmasa, Koeikiku, and Kangiku, but I also love dry, mellow sake like this.
I would like to have this kind of sake again.
Thank you for the sake.
A special order from the Ritaya Sake Shop Hanpukai.
Mellow sweet flavor spreads in the mouth.
The aroma is pleasant.
The aftertaste is clean, umami and spicy.
There is no bitterness, so it is very easy to drink.
