The nose has a sweet banana-like aroma and a lactic acidic rice aroma.
In the mouth, a light nigori (light nigori) flavor is followed by a refreshing cider-like sweetness and a slight umami flavor. After that, a melon-like aroma appears and persists until the end. At the same time, it finishes with a pleasant acidity and a slight tanginess on the tongue. This sake is like an easy-drinking, refreshingly sweet version of Sancho.
Meta-damn good. This may be my favorite sake ever. Love the scent of flowers!
This sake is just as delicious as the label says.
It is a delicious sake that lives up to its label.
It is elegantly sweet and gassy,
It is clean, clear, and crisp,
It was delicious 😋.
I went to Kumamoto to visit a sake brewery and bought this sake.
It doesn't have much aroma, but it has a subtle fragrance.
It has a moderate sweetness, moderate acidity, and a nice crispness.
I hope they will expand nationwide like they did before.
This is a locally-distributed sake, though the company's nationwide brand is Sanchi.
It's a bit hard to open. It's a bit sweet, but it's not cloying, so it's not sticky, maybe because it has a bit of acidity.

I brought in a cherry blossom I bought in Kumamoto.
The cap flew off in the store!
It looks like a product of Kumamoto.
Just the right density for summer. It is light and firm. It has a nice fruity alcohol taste.
I'm glad it was well received by everyone.
Another brand from a sake brewery in the area of production. It is so effervescent that the first bubbles erupt, rather dry, and tastes great when drunk chilled. New discovery.
Finally, the last alcohol I stocked up on during my summer vacation 🥹.
Hana no Kaori Junmai Daiginjo Sakurabana!
Since I went to the trouble of buying it at the brewery, I also bought a bottle of Sandoni Nozomi 👍.
Needless to say, the Ninoujozo is... delicious!
If the lot is new, the first day it's clean, but for some reason it gets juicier on the second day! It's a healthy one 🤣.
Hana no Kou...
A little bit of jwah on the first day!
The flavor shows the character of Ni no Kozo's production.
If Ninosojo is like champagne, Hana no Kaori is like a local sake 🍶.
However...I think the first day was the best...
The second day tends to be more dry and more sake-like than umami 🤔.
I enjoyed it ✨
How long will it stay hot 💦?
Abnormalities are the norm 😱.
The other day I got Sakurabana, and this time I got Umihana 🌊.
Without any previous information, I opened the bottle thinking it would be a refreshing, acidic, dry one from the light blue label. I opened the bottle thinking it would be a refreshing, acidic, and dry one.
Long psshhhh💦.
The aroma is sweet, like banana🍌 or vanilla.
In the mouth, chili gas, gentle sweetness, little acidity, clean aftertaste. If the other day's Sakurabana had a strawberry milkiness, this one has a banana milkiness.
Unlike what I imagined, this one was sweet and tasty. ✌️
Mom was happy too😊Yumminess‼️
The second day, I feel a little minty or cool.
Before you know it, it's the second half of August... 😨.
I thought it was so hot every day, but it seems to go by so fast... 😓.
I hope it will start to turn into autumn soon 😢.
Well, today... we opened a bottle of Sakurabana (old label) 🌸 from our favorite 🤩 Hanaka Shuzo, which is a standard series 🌸🍶.
However...this is the first time I've opened the old label 😆.
First of all, when you open the bottle, the aroma is sweet and fruity ginjo ✨I wonder what the aroma is close to 🤔.
Cherry blossoms, so cherry 🍒? Sorry, my sense of smell is a little too good to judge 💧.
I'm sorry, but I can't quite determine it 💧...the sweetness and umami come right away, then some bitterness...and then complexity 🤔.
This one is 💁 quite separated from the new label Sakurabana: ❗️
This old label is clad in a clean and beautiful taste while keeping the traditional sake feel 🤔 Moreover, it is cosier 🙆🙆.
The new label we drank before has a refreshing 🫧 taste that is reminiscent of the San-Do series 😍(the label also has a San-Do-like pattern).
All in all... the following impression is a brief summary of Hana no Kaka Shuzo's lineup: ‼️
If you are looking for a lightness like Champagne 🍾, I recommend the new label Sakurabana and the Sanchi series 👌.
If you want to enjoy the original flavor and sweetness of sake, this 💁 is the Hana-no-Kou series 🤣.
Series from the Kyushu trip🍶.
Hana no Kouka Kaihana🏖️
Compared to Sakurabana, it's more dry and refreshing as the label says.
but the fizziness is stronger 🫧.
The second day is more rounded and more gobby 😆.
Is it distributed in the prefecture?
No special distributor in Hiroshima...
So even if you want it, you can't buy it at regular price 🥲.
However, if you ask me if I would buy it every time because of the price... I think I would rather buy it from Sandoni-Ninoh 😊.
I have 2 bottles of Ninou left in stock 😍.
Hana-no-Ko Sake limited edition sake from the Sake Brewery Festival, No. 9 yeast
The clarity of a Junmai Daiginjo-style sake with a gorgeous aroma and a fruity taste.
A slight bitterness in the latter half of the bottle finishes off the lingering taste.
Summer Festival of Ujigami Shrine
Due to the declining birthrate and aging population, many changes have been made this year. The number of stalls has also increased. The route of the floats has been changed, but the karaoke contest in the shrine grounds has lost its atmosphere, which is a pity. I will be a board member the year after next, so I am thinking about various things.
So I decided to just say hello and go home to drink with my father and brother because the karaoke was too noisy even if we drank at the shrine office.
We opened a bottle of Hana-no-Kou, which we bought in Kumamoto. I don't know what I mean when I say Kumamoto. Well, that's how it is if you don't usually drink sake. I didn't appreciate it and was killed instantly. I wish it tasted good.
I hadn't had a bottle of lager beer in a long time, and it was delicious.
Hello Nochi ^_^
Low birthrate and aging population affects so many places 😢.
Please do your best to make the next year more exciting 💪.
Hana no Kaori is good ✨
I want to drink Hana no Koka and Sandon!
Good evening, Manta-san! The trend of downsizing of events is a rural one. w Karaoke is good or bad, I reserve my judgment. I think there might be something good. I think there are some good ones.
Let's go buy some incense!
Choroki-san Showa Salarymen love bottled beer ❤ Akahoshi Ichiban Shibori Super Dry Lager, Kansai is Maltz? I have an image like that. Hoppy is also included.
During my trip to Nagasaki, I went to visit one of the breweries that I have been pushing 🙏, the Hananoka Shuzo.
We were worried about the roads due to the heavy rain, but we made it without incident and got our long awaited sansho and hana-no-kou ✨.
Today, we had a cherry blossom (this is a friend of mine who sent it to me when she went back to Kumamoto... 🤭)
At the brewery, I bought 2 bottles of sundo and 2 bottles of hana no ko 🍶.
Now, how about the sakurabana: ⁉️
Compared to Sundo
More fizzy
Not as dry as dry, but with some alcohol and a tendency toward dryness
Ni-no-kozo is more umami?
But Sakurabana is also delicious.
On the second day, it has more of a local flavor, and the sake feeling comes in a bit more quickly, but it also goes away quickly... also delicious 😋.
The areas that haven't oxidized are still full of freshness and change is perfect👍
The only drawback is the higher price of Sakurahana Haika in comparison to the other two 😂.
Hi HANNAH 😃
Visiting the warehouse even in the heavy rain ☔️! Your energy is great 🤗Buying 4 bottles is also a quintessential ‼️
I see that Hana no Kou is more fizzy 😳I'd like to taste it there 😋.
Jay & Nobby.
Good morning 😃
We had a lot of conflicts but we successfully enjoyed our visit and trip as planned!
What about the fizzy sensation of the Sakurakai raw sake series? Maybe it is... but it's hard not to drink it casually 🥹.
