Forgot to raise!
Slight green apple-like aroma.
Clear entrance with acidity. It is like water.
The clarity has a slight umami of rice.
The spiciness of the alcohol is sharp and crisp, and it goes down the throat quickly.
It has a clean feeling. It is very summery.
Degree of liking ☆3.5/5
Purchased at a local liquor store.
It is my favorite first grandchild.
It has a crisp, fresh, muscat-like fruity ginjo aroma.
The taste is light and sweet, with a great sharpness, while still having the umami of the rice.
It also has a fizzy and bubbly taste.
It is full-bodied and full-bodied.
It is perfect after a summer bath.
I drank it again on the second day.
The next day, when I opened the cork, I heard a nice sound.
The freshness is rounded out and the sweetness is clear.
I think Hatsuson is really diverse in flavor.
When served cold, the aroma is of rice and koji
The taste is sourness first, then sweetness and umami.
When heated, the acidity weakens and the sweetness becomes stronger, and the koji taste can be felt, but it does not bother me that much.
The flavor spreads from a clean mouthfeel to the finish.
It flows smoothly and can be enjoyed even in the hot summer ✨.
I'm glad to see my first grandchildren more often these days 💕
Shozui, a daiginjo representing Hatsuson, from Sakata City, Yamagata Prefecture. This sake brewery is dedicated to the production of sake using the "Namahashi-zukuri" method of sake brewing.
The taste is fruity and mellow, with a deep umami flavor, but the aftertaste is good, leaving a dry taste typical of sake from the port town of Sakata! Is this deep umami a taste that comes from the sake brewing process?
It is so good that you can have many glasses of sake alone, chilled. ☺️
