This is an ambitious work that focuses entirely on Kure City products, and I repeat: Kure is an independent administrative region! Jacket value ... 8/10 The bold gold letters on the white background (the roughness is the key) are very strong. Ki ... 12/20 The hue is slightly golden yellow, and there is no particular aroma even if it tries hard. Sei... 10/20 It has some umami, but the output is quite weak, and yet the texture is quite clean, which means it's not enough. Turning... 10/20 The taste is almost watery. I think there should be some kind of approach. I always want to seek for the straightness of the taste, even if there are different opinions. Yui ... 9/20 It is a pity that there is no umami before that. Cospa ... 3/10 Between acceptable and unacceptable, depending on your taste. I think SAKE should be persistent. 52 points

I've been wanting to try this one warmed up... This one tasted a little more sour, and I personally prefer the taste of Oroku.

We were given a rare opportunity to drink outside and went to Sake Koi Japan, where rare sake is available. It was their anniversary celebration, and there were some great sakes on the lineup. I'll check in later, but first, a brand I was curious about, Houken from Kure in Hiroshima! We often see it in dancyu and other books. The brewer, Mr. Doitsu, seems to be a famous person. It was almost at the end of the first bottle, so the taste was much more rounded. Perhaps because of this, it is not super dry, but rather has a mild umami and sweetness from the rice, and it finishes clean and crisp. It is rather classic, but I had an image of it as a man's sake with more gusto! I had imagined it to be more like a classic, but with more gusto! I want to buy and drink it myself! This is indeed Hiroshima sake!
