Here is the freshly squeezed new sake 🍶 that arrived at the liquor store today 😄.
It is a dry 🍶 with a slight melon taste, acidity and dryness that spreads and finishes on the palate 🤔.

It is dry, but not just spicy, soft on the palate, and has a nice sharpness!
Hiroshima sake is a handsome example of how good the water tastes.
I enjoyed drinking this sake when I traveled alone in Hiroshima in the spring. ☺️
It tasted even better after the second day, when the corners were removed!
I don't often buy sake from Hiroshima...
But I was encouraged to try it and bought it!
It's made with that Sake Mirai!
I have the impression that Houken is dry and has little umami, but I was surprised to see how much the taste changes when the rice is different.
Fruity, but with a sharpness that is typical of Houken.
It was good during a meal!
I thought I would drink it after a while to see if the taste changes.

It was the last order, and we chose the last drink to be consumed slowly over the next 30 minutes.
◉寳剱 Junmai-shu with a retro label
The retro label is a straight forward and very striking one. The refreshing mouthfeel is followed by a pleasantly complex taste that spreads with a bitter acidity and umami flavor. The three-dimensionality of the flavor is a delight to the palate.
I was quite drunk, but I think I was able to finish the last glass with a deep sake.
I drank a lot and got drunk a lot throughout the day 🙏.
It's getting colder these days, but here is Houken's autumn harvest. The orange label is probably just my imagination, but I bought it on my way home from a business trip and stopped by Inamaya in Ginza to pick it up. I stopped by Imameya in Ginza on my way home from a business trip and got it.
Even after the fall season, the fascinating world of Houken is still there, and the freshness and richness are added. Delicious....
