Hakurei Shuzo has been in business for 190 years and brews both sweet and dry sake with low-hardness, ultra-soft water. I had been curious about this sake for a long time and found it for sale at Ricaman.
It has a pleasant sweetness and acidity.
It is fruity and very tasty.
In April 2023, it won a gold medal at the Feminaries World Wine Competition, selected by female wine experts from around the world.
I said, "I'd like to have something to drink at the end," and one of them came out.
I was told, "It's the kind you drink in a wine glass."
So I tried it. I'm pretty discerning, aren't I?
Sweet. And this is as close to wine as you can get.
Oh my God, even Japanese sake has this kind of taste!
Well ... There have certainly been many in the past, but this Hakurei, really, is still a lovely thing.
Made from Gohyakumangoku rice grown in Kyoto
Rice polishing ratio 60
Alcohol content: 14%.
Drinking at a liquor store near Hakozaki station.
Not only was I attracted by the brand name I was drinking for the first time, but I also enjoyed this restaurant very much because of the food and the personality of the owner and the waitresses!
Drinking cold sake
The aroma is almost imperceptible.
When you put it in your mouth, it is full-bodied with a tangy dryness that lasts for a while.
It has a long lingering taste and is good as a food sake.
This sake also has a strong flavor, but since the other sake we drank with it was quite umakuchi, it seemed a little light, and we felt we drank it in the wrong order.
Although the entire label states that the rice is made from rice other than the same type, the rice polishing ratio is 50%, which is quite low, and the taste is also delicious.

Live Naturally."

Good balance of sweetness and bitterness👍
As the name of the sake "Live naturally" suggests.
Natural and unctuous.
It is easy to drink and refreshing.
