My favorite Hatsuhinode unfiltered unpasteurized sake. It's darker than I imagined it would be, but I guess that's because of the high alcohol content. Haneda is my favorite sake brewery, so when I see a label I've never had, I want to buy it.

Congratulations to Bevitore on their 5th anniversary!
So on that day, we will have our first DJ event, and we will set up tables outside for street drinking.
One of the regulars prepared a celebratory sake, a high-grade sake made with Kyoto's "Shuku" (celebration), and I was treated to it.
Perhaps I was looking at the specifications of the sake, a junmai daiginjo with a 40% rice polishing ratio, but it was what I would call a good sake.
It is well-balanced and can be served as it is or as an in-between-dinner drink.
I thought it would be good warmed up, but since it is a celebratory sake, I guess it is better to drink it in a big gulp with everyone toasting it together.
I have the impression that Kyoto sake breweries are reluctant to mention the yeast used, but this Hatsuhinode claims to use the yeast "Kyo-no-Koto". The aroma is elegant and slightly sweet.

Purchased at Depa.
I bought this bottle because I enjoyed the story of the brewer who came to sell it. He said that he drinks it every day to check if the taste has changed 😆.
The sake rice is Gohyakumangoku from Kyoto.
When I opened the bottle, there was a nice aroma of ginjo aroma. The anticipation is high.
The color is clear and transparent.
On the palate, it has a refreshing sweetness. There is a delayed but discreet piquancy. Finally, it is pierced by a sour and lime-like taste. The sweetness disappears without being pulled out, and the cleanness is good.
The fragrance is mellow and deep.
You can feel the careful craftsmanship of each and every sake.
It was delicious. ❗️
I will buy it again 💪.
100% Kyoto sake rice, celebratory rice
Slightly sweet strawberry🍓 like aroma.
The mouthfeel is mellow, but then you are surprised by the acidity and tanginess.
The aftertaste is elegant, with a hint of strawberry flavor again.
The second sip is easy to drink like water without the tanginess, as if you have gotten used to it.
It reminds me of Kyoto's obanzai (traditional Japanese food), with a strong but not overpowering character.
I was deeply impressed by the fact that this is Kyoto's sake.

(My impression after drinking it)
It has a slight yellowish color and does not have much of a ginjo aroma. It has a freshness typical of nama-shu and a fizzy sensation that tingles on the tongue. In the mouth, there is a slight sweetness and acidity with a strange tang. The taste is crisp and dry, like Hatsuhinode, and there is a slight alcohol smell lingering in the aftertaste.
