My favorite "Ashigari-go" series. The shopkeeper showed me how to pour it into a wine glass, and when I put my nose inside the glass, I smelled the sweet aroma of grapes. The aroma of sweet grapes! In the mouth, it is the sweetest of the series, but it is not cloyingly sweet and is quite tasty.

This sake is made with hydrangea yeast collected in Kaisei Town. It has a subtle sweetness and a white wine-like flavor. It has a thickening taste.
I purchased this sake after hearing the explanation that it is a special sake that uses local hydrangea as yeast and sake instead of water for brewing to make the best use of the yeast. I thought it would be a sweet sake with a sake strength of -29, but it was a delicious sake with a rich aroma and just the right amount of sake flavor.
A bottle from All Kaisei Town
Perhaps due to the use of hydrangea yeast
Floral from start to finish
Especially, it is floral from the spreading of the taste until it passes through the nasal cavity.
Floral flavor,
but the base is sake.
I have kept this one from last year.
I bought it because I had previously enjoyed the same brand of Zero. It seems to use hydrangea flower yeast.
This one was a little dry with less sweetness. The aroma was a bit like Setoichi. I think the brewery brews several brands, but all of them have a unique aroma in common. I've recently figured it out 🧐.
I had rakkyo kimchi and soba noodles to go with it.
Hi Jay & Novi😃
I think most of the sake from this brewery is dry which is easy to drink ^ ^.
Personally, I liked the sweetness of Zero, although it is not dry. I like this brewery but it is a bit expensive 😓.
