Junmai Daiginjo made with "Kame-no-o" cultivated with great care by "Hidenori Suzuki," a farmer who grows "Kame-no-o" in an environment full of nature. It is the same rice used for Natsuko's sake. It is a great learning experience. It has a natural and elegant ginjo aroma and a clear taste with deep notes. It is a valuable sake that is released twice a year: freshly pressed in spring and aged in fall. This time we enjoyed the autumn aged sake. Next time, I would love to try the spring nama sake...I am excited to visit sake shops to see if I can find it. I am looking forward to visiting more sake shops to see if they have any available!

Cold sake Dry and slightly mellow. The slight acidity and carbonation give it a crispness, while the lingering umami taste gives it a rich flavor. The fresh ginjo aroma is present from the moment the bottle is opened, which makes the sake go down a treat 😆. I got the impression that it was similar to Niigata sake, which is famous for its dry, light flavor. However, it has a slightly stronger flavor than Niigata sake, but it is elegant without any cloying taste, so it would go better with boiled wild vegetables than seafood. (It would be happy with rice, thick miso soup with nameko mushrooms, and boiled wild vegetables.) Cold sake is the best way to drink it! This time, I bought it at a certain place in Chiba prefecture because I was curious about the special-order product. lot.1279 / 2838

Rigel said it was his best this year, so I was curious and bought it. The top aroma is already fruity. It is a little cloudy. According to the official website, it's an unfiltered, unfiltered, raw sake, Nakakumi. The rice is Yamadanishiki and Hidahomare. It is a miracle sake that only 0.1% of the visitors to the brewery can have it. I bought it at Yamaya though 🤣. It is gassy and mellow. This kind of sake often has a bitter taste, but this one has no bitterness at all. The label looks like Eva, but the inside is very well made. Delicious! Hourai may be a bit of a fad and have a quirky atmosphere, but their sake is of the highest quality. I'm also getting curious about THE FIRST TAKE that was sold at another liquor store 🤔. I went to the liquor store and THE FIRST TAKE was sold out😭 It's a Jun Dai sake, unpressed and priced around 2,000 yen 💦 so it must be sold out

bouken-san, good evening 🌛I feel that Hourai is expanding its business in various ways 😅Because we live in an era when they will go out of business if they don't think about management 💦In my opinion, there is no shortage of products packed directly from the vats, so when in doubt, I buy according to that standard 🤣.

Hello Nemuchi ☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀. Hourai has many labels and phrases that make me want to pick it up, but I realized that the taste is of a high standard as well as the W 👍😁 Hourai, I will pay attention to it in the future 🤔.

Junmai Daiginjo Sake Gokui Den⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Rice polishing ratio 40%, ALC 16 degrees When the bottle is opened, a mellow and fruity aroma is immediately noticeable. When you put it in your mouth, it is even more fruity, but with moderate acidity and bitterness, and the mild umami of the rice spreads. 20250322: Gift from my brother 0407 opened

Basically, it seems that only those who toured the brewery could purchase it, but it was available for purchase at the product exhibition. It seems to be a rare sake that is directly pumped by the toji at the perfect time. It seems to be a rare sake. It has a strong melon-like aroma. It has a strong melon-like aroma and is quite carbonated for a sake. The alcohol content is high at 17 degrees, The sweetness, umami, and carbonation make it very pleasant on the palate, and it is easy to drink too much of it. It is easy to drink too much.

I found it at a liquor store I passed by when I went out to my relative's house. I am a sucker for keywords like "limited edition" so I bought it (lol). It is not too fruity. It has a firm gassy and tangy taste. It has a rounded richness, which spreads out and finishes off nicely. A modern type of delicious sake.
