First time drinking Hiyoroshi from Chokyu
delicious!
Roughness that volatilizes at the end.
The middle part of the bottle has a sense of umami.
Delicious 🤤.
It is quite tangy, and when you put it straight down your throat, it will hit you hard, and when you put air in your mouth, the flavor will expand.
I would like to try it with ice or carbonated water.
[Rice shochu? 😮]
I found a bottle that I haven't tasted yet and bought it 😁.
It has 19% alcohol by volume and +20 sake, which is a strong spec like rice shochu 😳.
When I drank it, there is almost no rice shochu feeling (of course), but the alcohol is indeed very strong.
I think it would be better to drink it with some small ice cubes floating on it to make the taste more rounded👍.
Chokyu is really quite different in character from bottle to bottle, so it's fun and good 😂.

Polishing ratio 55
Alcohol 16%.
The color remains yellowish. There is almost no aroma.
It has a strong sense of alcohol, but the flavor of the rice is also strong.
The aftertaste is slightly bitter.

When I went on a trip to Kii-Katsuura, I bought this at Horichu Sake Shop! It is super spicy and has a strong taste.
You're No. 1.
I was blown away by the taste of this bottle when I drank it for the first time the year before last.
Since then, it's a must-buy bottle for me every year. ✌️✌️
It has a fruity aroma, just a little bit of chili, and a nice mouthfeel.
The sweetness is felt for a moment, and then the umami that spreads afterwards is thick.
At the end of drinking, the spiciness and rum raisin-like aroma that is typical of matured sake remain.
Everything I look for in a sake at a high level 😆💯.
Hello, Chanmaya P.
I have yet to find this sake that Chanmaya P. told me about 😭.
I'm looking forward to enjoying the sake life so that I can find it someday 🎵.
Chanmaya P., you are getting it in Tokyo. ⤴️
Yes, I am in Osaka. I live in Osaka.
If I get a chance to visit Tokyo, I'll look for an underground liquor store 😊.
ma-ki-, it is a liquor store named Liquors Hasegawa (different from the famous Hasegawa liquor store w), if you have a chance 😄.
The selection is austere, so it's very useful!
Good morning, Chanmaya P. 😊
I was so curious about the red chokyu in this post that I bought it online.
It was very tasty! Your review of the taste was so accurate and so true! I enjoyed it so much that I kept muttering to myself, "It's so good!
Thanks for taking the time to contact me, tsutsumitate-san 😄.
This is really delicious!
Chokyu has an interesting taste that varies quite a bit from label to label, but I think this red Bizen Omachi is by far the best of the bunch.
