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.
Happy New Year 🎍.
We look forward to working with you in the New Year 😊.
We drank the HANAIYOUKU PREMIUM at my wife's parents house in Saitama at the end of the year and it was gone soon after we all drank it 😁.
The aroma and taste were both clear and beautiful pineapple 🍍 It was a delicious sake with no cloying taste ✨.
I'm going back to Yokohama today.
The 4th picture is two people at the city hall where I am.
Happy New Year once again, ichiro18 🌅.
I wish you a happy new year 🎍🐴🎍🎍.
Drinking HANAYOSHI PREMIUM in my hometown Saitama is intoxicating 🤤🤤.
The face of Kasukabe City is Shin-chan 🖍️, a quintessential presence 😄!
Happy New Year, Aladdin 🎍Happy New Year 🙇.
New Year's Day in Kasukabe was relaxing, but Shin-chan was a dominant presence at a nearby commercial center ✨I must make it a drunken New Year's Day🍶.
Happy New Year, Mr. Studying 🎍New Year's greetings 🙇Thank you 😊Many people are not used to driving on New Year's roads, so I try to leave as much distance as possible 😁.
Thank you very much 😊I will leave as much space as possible on the New Year's road because there are many people who are not used to driving 😁.
Happy New Year, ichiro18 🎍I'm sure everyone enjoyed the hana yang at your parents' house 💐It's perfect for the New Year ❣️
I'm looking forward to your review again this year ichiro18 🥰Have a safe trip home 👋
Hiro-san, it's nice to meet you too 🙇 I'm going to enjoy my sake life while following the back of Mimuro Mania-san to Masamune Hunter ✨Take care of yourself and enjoy each other's company 🍶.
Happy New Year to you, HinaHanaMama 🎍.
One cup for each of us and it's gone 🤣 everyone was amazed at the strange taste 😁Thank you 😊I'll be driving around a lot during New Year's so I'll enjoy drinking enough not to overindulge✨.
Happy New Year to you, Afio 🎍New Year's greetings 🙇.
It was a great new year for me to drink PREMIUM local sake in Saitama 🍶Let's drink more and more in the new year ✨.
Happy New Year, ichiro18 🍶You can only return home after enjoying the local sake 😋✨and the hanyou PREMIUM❗️
My family loves Shin-chan, so I get excited 😆.
Happy New Year, ichiro18, I will be commenting here ‼️! Your wife's local sake, Huayangyu, and it's premium ✨It's quintessential 👍🎉Please keep up the good work this year 😆.
Happy New Year, ichiro18 🎍.
I look forward to working with you this year 🤗
Is it a HANA-YOUKYU PREMIUM 😍I bet it's delicious 🤤.
It was a fun drinking time with your family 😋.
Closing of the year.
Hana-yosu Hachi-nishiki 40!
We had many good encounters this year.
Both people and alcohol. I hope to see you again 🤩.
May we be blessed with good encounters next year as well!

HANA-YOUKAKU HACHITAN-NISHIKI PREMIUM
This is my last post for this year: ☺️
I've been drinking sake for about a year and a half now, and it's been a really fulfilling year for me as I've discovered many different kinds of sake 🍶.
I'm so thankful to have found some brands I'd like to try someday 🙏✨.
I was wondering what to drink to end the year that started and ended with sake, and when I was going through my fridge, I found a one year old (I forgot) HANAHODAKU PREMIUM. ‼️
I have no choice but to drink it now. ✌🏻(´◉◉◉`)✌🏻
When you pour it into a glass, you can smell the fruity pineapple aroma without any twists and turns 🍍.
Pinappo is synonymous with hana-yori.
But the Pinappo is also understated and has a refined ginjo aroma, making it a truly elegant Pinappo juice 🍹.
With high expectations, I took a sip: ‼️
(""Pinappo")<Wow!
The taste is rich in comparison to the aroma.
The flavor is rich in relation to the aroma.
And the flavor slowly and slowly recedes, with a perfect aftertaste.
The lingering taste is also perfect 🥰, followed by a slight bitterness, which is very elegant...
I am happy when I taste it in my mouth.
I feel like an aristocrat with its elegant taste. 🤴🏻
Have a happy new year 🏇💨🎉!
Good evening, Afio 😃.
I can't believe you forgot about the HANA-YOU-YOU-PRIME, great fridge 🤤 but thanks to you it was a great end to a great year of saké 😊.
Thank you for all your help this year! Have a drunken New Year 🍶.
Good evening, Afio!
It was a pleasure talking to you this year 🎵Thank you so much🤗
Last but not least, the Hana-yori premiere 😍.
I'm afraid of the fridge that can forget the finest sake 😲.
Have a happy new year 😊.
Hi Aladdin, good evening 😌.
I unearthed it from underneath when I rearranged the fridge 😆 lol.
I am happy to finish the year's drinking with such a wonderful drink 🥰.
Thank you for your help on my part: ‼️
Have a drunken New Year next year 🏇💨
Good evening, ma-ki-chan!
You were the first one to leave a comment after I started Sake-no-wa, right?
Thanks to you, we had a lot of conversation and it was a lot of fun 🥳✨.
Let's keep up the good work next year ☺️
Hello, Afuio 😃.
Woohooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ‼️
It's nice to feel like an aristocrat🌹 at the end of the year 🤗Continue to have an intoxicated New Year's 👋
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😌.
The moment you drank, the horses were running around 🏇💨 <whoooooooooooaaa!!!!
After all, at the end of the year, I want to start the year off with a drink I don't normally drink 🥰🥰.
Have a happy new year 🏇💨!
Ahuio, you forgot to mention that 😂.
I'm curious what else you have in the fridge 😆.
I'll be ending the year with some delicious aged sake!
Thank you for the year 😊
Please have a happy new year 🙏✨
Pon, I'm kind of inundated with so many things I can't grasp it anymore🤣.
But I'm glad I could open the 1 year maturity of Huayangyu at this time. ☺️
Thank you very much for your support this year!
Have a very happy New Year 🥳✨
Went to Shima & Coffee & Sake's [small restaurant] event for a year-end party with friends (3)
When I looked around the cellar to see what to order next, I found a drunk guy, so here it is 🍶.
HANAIYOUKU Junmai Daiginjo Unfiltered Nama Sake.
From the unmistakable aroma of pineapple, to the juicy and sweet umami, to the sharp finish, to the clean lingering taste and the bitterness on the tongue....
It's a great Pinappo 🍍 Oh no, it's too good!
I want to get it next year 🤔
The entrée is [Dashi-maki (rolled crab and green onion)] 🍳.
Gyve, here you are too!
Good to see you and your friends at the year-end party 🎵
I was able to get this one 😍.
I'm looking forward to the too delicious pineapple 🍍.
The dashi maki with seiko crab and kujo leeks also looks delicious 🤤!
Good morning, ma-ki!
Wow, I see you have a stock of "HANA-YOUKAKU" 😲.
I had a chance to buy a bottle of "HANA-YOSU MATCH" earlier this year, but I didn't go through with it because I was worried about where to put the bottle 😅.
It is now a "drinking pineapple".
Hanaabi Junmai Daiginjo, Hachitan-Nishiki.
This overwhelming sense of fruitiness bugs my brain no matter how many times I drink it.
It is not just sweet. The dignified elegance of Hachitan-Nishiki is perfectly harmonized with the fresh acidity of the raw sake, and it is the ultimate tropical experience.
Today is the 1st anniversary of Pekhosakewa 🎊🤭and I'm going back to Aichi from tomorrow, so tonight is the big finale of Saitama's home drinking party🎉.
So here comes the premium sake 🥰!
Saitama sake and sausage from Saitama farm added to shabu shabu and Saitama love ❤️
Pork shabu shabu with sakura shrimp pancake and sukonoko 💖.
Premium is rounder, gentler and more balanced than the usual Hana-yosu ✨It's delicious without being sharply sweet or bitter 🥰.
Saitama love you ❤️ thank you for a great year 😍‼️
Impressions of the sake by itself are in charge of shinsaku3 🩷.
Good evening, Mr. Pepho😄.
Congratulations on the first anniversary of Sake-no-wa: ㊗️

Good evening, shinsaku3!
Pekho, congratulations on the 1st anniversary of SAKEWA🎉!
HANA-YOU-YOU PREMIUM - I'm so jealous 😍.
I hope you and your wife continue to enjoy your sake life 🤗.
Good morning, shinsaku3 🐥.
Congratulations to Mr. Peckho on your 1st anniversary🎊Hanayo after the other day, this time even more special!
I look forward to seeing you and your wife's sake activities next year 😊.
☀️
I feel like I drank recently, but I drank just fine 🤗.
Tropical pineapple🍍.
Soaking sweetness and soft acidity 😚.
The astringency seeps through in the aftertaste.
My senses tell me it's been a few days since the bottle was opened 🤗.
The second time in my life, I drank Huahangyoshu, it was just like a ripe pineapple, tropical fruitiness, too fruity with a cemedine smell, acidity felt at the back of the mouth with a bitterness, sweet and very high umami despite the Hachitan Nishiki, bitterness lingers on the finish, as it approaches room temperature, the aroma and sweetness settle down but a sourness also comes out, the last one I drank was too fruity and sweet, so I drank it as a grown up Huahangyoshu. The last time I drank it, it was fruity and sweet all the way through, so this is an adult Hanahayo.
