Sake with a gusto, that is... "Houken"! It is no exaggeration to say! And when it comes to Hachitan-Nishiki, it's Hiroshima! Just kidding. I also like the gusto type...I love it.

It has a sweet yet light taste. But if you taste it carefully, you will find that it actually has a dry aftertaste. It goes well with hwaseng-scented mapo-doufu and negitoro (green onion). However, it does not go well with satsuma-age (fried fish cake), and its bitterness seems to become stronger as it fights against the sweetness of satsuma-age. However, I am happy that I did not expect sake to go well with mapo-tofu, and it is an unexpected harvest.

It is a clear sake with a firm sharpness. It went well with mapo tofu and negitoro Korean seaweed. A delicious food sake. ★★☆☆☆

The name "Houken" comes from the fact that Nigata-cho, Kure City, where the brewery is located, is Japan's largest producer of files, and there were many sword smiths there. The brewery uses "Houken Meisui" (famous Houken water) that springs up in the brewery, and the quality of the sake is clear, dry, and has a good umami flavor!

Houken-style super dry! Unlike just plain dry, it has a slightly fruity aroma, a soft mouthfeel, and the umami and sweetness of rice! It gently fades away at the end...this is already amazing!

はがね
I got this sake yesterday from a neighbor of Amego no Tsuki! I think "deep flavor" is the best word to describe this sake.  It is like a refined sake! If I were to use it as a food metaphor, would it be grilled fish? (Mysterious expression). In terms of compatibility, I would say it goes well with meat and fish dishes. I think it goes well with both meat and fish dishes. Hachitanishiki 100, ratio 55 +5 1.5

Houken's summer sake "Ryouka". It seems to be a popular sake. Sake degree is +10 and dry. It is crisp and refreshing. Too sharp, but with a little bit of umami. Certainly, a little different from ordinary summer sake. Rice : Hachitan-Nishiki produced in Hiroshima Prefecture Rice polishing ratio : 55 Sake degree : +10 Alcohol content : 15

4.0 A clear sake that corresponds to the cool silver color of the label. It is refreshing and you will never get tired of drinking it. It is my favorite taste. Sake rice is Hachitan-Nishiki.
