Tasting at a brewery event hosted by a liquor store.
We tasted at the Harushika booth, which we had not known before.
Ura-Harushika Junmai Ginjyo Nama Genjyo Nama Shu (summer brewing)
Ura-Harushika Mutenkiri Junmai Ginjyo Yamadanishiki Nama-Nihonjunshu
Harushika Ginjo Super Dry
The overall impression was a little dry and the flavor of the rice was brought out well. The summer-brewed sake was light and fruity, with not too much sweetness. The non-pressurized sake has more umami than sweetness, and is good as a food sake.
Harushika is brewed in wooden vats. The bottle looks like a red wine! The first glass is not too harsh and has a moderate sweetness that makes it easy to drink, but from the second glass, it starts to feel more and more like a sake brewed in a wooden vat! The sweetness is still there, but there is also a kind of umami in it that gives it depth!
Hello, Natchez!
Today's weather was pleasant, so it's great to enjoy a glass of sake in the garden ✨.
Harushika, I haven't drunk it yet, but it looks very easy to drink 😊.
Thanks for your comment ma-ki-...it was the best weather of the year! Harushika is usually dry, but Type-HA is light and refreshing, just like the weather on this day 😋.

Pale yellow in color with a sense of transparency.
The first impression of the aroma is fresh and full.
Grapefruit, Kashiwa Mochi, Ramune
The first impression on the palate is light but firm.
Slight sweetness, fine and sharp acidity, moderate bitterness, and a good balance of umami and dryness.
The lingering aftertaste is rather short and cut off firmly.
Anyway, the label is cool!
I think it is a sake with a distinct personality that is easy to recommend to people who like umami and spicy food.
I have the impression that it can be used with all kinds of food.
I'd like to pair it with tempura since it cuts well.
In my current mood, I would like to drink it with squid tempura with salt.
I feel like I can drink it while eating a Ramune because I can feel its Ramune flavor.
Cold Sake.

Cold sake
Mellow sweet aroma.
The taste is mellow but not fruity like Harushika, with a characteristic juicy sweetness.
The mouthfeel is smooth and round.
Very good with mushroom hot pot!

We had it hot.
Sweet mirin.
It feels sweet but doesn't linger that long in the aftertaste.
Lingering umami, sweet aroma like carmela, and savory flavor.
Hello, Matsuchiyosan.
The label was a little harsh 😊.
I think it's a sake that goes well with oden and other simmered dishes 🍶Achichi is better than lukewarm.
