This is the new sake Miyamanishiki from Hanayo.
This year, the master forgot to order the new Gohyakumangoku sake, so Miyamanishiki is on the menu first 🤔.
The top aroma is softly sweet with a pineapple 🍍 flavor.
The taste on the palate is mildly sweet with a slight astringency.
It is a stable Pinappo🍍 again this year.
It was delicious. ✨️🍍
To kick off the new sake season for the popular sake brand "Hanayo", a junmai daiginjo is brewed using the new rice "Gohyakumangoku" from Niigata prefecture, polished to 48% rice polishing ratio.
Again, it is wonderful! The aroma is centered around the blooming aroma of many kinds of flowers typical of Hanayo, with a honey-like sweetness, creating an enchanting world of sweetness!
The sharpness of "Gohyakumangoku" is also well incorporated to bring out a light aftertaste.
This seductive sweetness and light aftertaste! Hana-yoso" is truly wonderful!
Rice used: 100% Echigo Gohyakumangoku
Rice polishing ratio: 48
Alcohol content: 16%.
Producer: Nanyo Jozo, Hanyu City, Saitama Prefecture
The aroma is as strong as ever!
I brought it to a New Year's 🎍 gathering with relatives😊.
It was a very typical bottle 👍.
I couldn't taste the progress after 2 days or so because I drank it all on the first day, but on the first day it was less sweet and had some bitterness. But it was juicy and delicious💕.
I enjoyed it 🙇.
A year-end gift from a Japanese friend.
Drinking with friends in Taiwan.

You can tell the moment you open it, this is a serious bottle.
The rice flavor is strong, but the aftertaste is very smooth and clean.
Pair it with fried food and seaweed and you have a winner.
The speed at which the glass empties is dangerous.
At the end of the year,
Good sake, good friends, and good times.

Our partner gave us a wonderful request to break the seal of Hana-yosu during the New Year's holiday!
It has a unique hana-yosu-like aroma.
I had an image that it had become more bitter for a while.
but this Huayouyoubou is like a return to before that.
It has a mango-like aroma.
It's not that gorgeous and sparkling, but I think it's close to the sake that people who like sake like.
To be honest, it was so far out of my taste that I sometimes didn't buy it even if it was in the store.
I have the impression that it has changed a lot.
It is a sweet and delicious sake with a rich flavor.
But it is not too rich.
It goes down very smoothly.
My partner is singing in a good mood in the kitchen after drinking Houou Mita and Hanayoukou.
Good evening, Momochi!
Hmph 😁✨✨Your partner in a good mood is so cute 😍.
I guess the hana yang is still delicious to put you in such a good mood 🤤.
It's a different lapel, but I got my first one and I'm looking forward to it more and more 😋.

Good evening, take-san @ Shizoka-san!
I look forward to working with you again this year 🙇.
Good start to the New Year with a gorgeous, fresh and lush hana-yosu 😍.
Let's enjoy another year of delicious sake encounters 😋.
Thank you, ma-ki, and I look forward to working with you again this year. I would like to enjoy delicious sake in my own way without being bound by brands. ☺️
The sake was manufactured in September of 2012 and has been sitting in the refrigerator for over a year. I can't decide when to open it because I think this is one bottle I may never get again.
That being today, I opened the bottle on New Year's Day. Or, actually, the plan is to open it once the day before and let it sit for a day to get rid of the corners before drinking.
I'll keep a careful record of the taste.
On the first day, the ginjo aroma is strong and the flavor is moderate. Now let's see how it tastes on the second day.
