Hakkouda Oroshi Daiginjo Directly Pumped Raw Sake (Aomori)
This is a gift. It is the thing which my hand came out of. It is a product of Hato Masamune in Towada City. The umami, acidity, and sweetness are all rich, and it's a daiginjo-like sake. Rather than being neat, it has a bit of complexity with a hint of bitterness. It has a high alcohol content of 17 degrees, so it packs a punch. I think it tastes best when it's heated up rather than cold.
Aomori uses the name Hakkouda for many things. I once worked at the prefectural Hakkouda High School, which was closed a long time ago.
With a set of sake from Aomori.
First of all, the clarity in the glass is beautiful. The mouthfeel is smooth and mellow, and it's good. The aroma and sweetness is slight.
I made it lukewarm in the middle of the drink to test it out. I just didn't like this one as much...
