This sake was recommended to me by a liquor store that seems to be the only store in Tokyo that carries it.
After a faintly sweet aroma and a smooth, almost disappearing mouthfeel, it was followed by a bitter taste? Cemedine? A peculiar lingering taste. However, as you continue to drink, this point becomes less of an issue, and the taste opens up, or perhaps it is a well-balanced taste. As a food sake.
It is not like a junmai sake in a good way ✨.
Sake-no-jin Limited Edition! KOSHIJI-NO-KENBAI Flower and Snow <YUKI>!
This is a series of sake from my sister.
I thought it would be Haegukubiki, since it was called Hana to Yuki by the Kubiki Shuzo brewery,
But "Hana" was not included in Hae, but rather a brand name of Koshiji-no-Kohbai.
The design is a drop of water dripping in the middle of a double circle in light blue on a transparent bottle,
Clear and beautiful image.
The aroma is fruity, pear, and rice,
It had a very smooth taste when pouring it into a glass,
It was fresh and smooth on the palate,
It is very juicy with acidity and a light astringency.
The aroma is full-bodied and the flavor is rich,
It has a rich aroma, a thick flavor, and a firm taste,
The taste is light and crisp,
It comes with a thump and disappears without a hitch.
Hit-and-away, light and refreshing,
It is light and light, and very smooth!
Hana to Yuki (HANA) is also available,
The light blue YUKI is the raw type, and the pink HANA is the bottle-warmed, flame-brewed type.
I'm curious!

Junmai 🍶Unfiltered Unrefined Unrefined Sake ✨Hachitan Nishiki from Kakizaki 🌾Drinking with Autumn Sword Fish 😆.
Slightly acidic with a hint of sweetness. The alcohol is a little high. Unfortunately, I had it with striped horse mackerel instead of the swordfish 😋.

Drinks in January😊.
I'll upload them all at once😅
I bought it based on a word on the owner's card 🙋 first brand 😆 direct pumped Shiboritate 😳 it was rough, tasty, strong and dry 🤭.
Bought it for the second time by mistake at Kanazawa-ya in Uonuma. Fruity, delicious and bitter. This balance is delicious! I'd be happy to buy the same sakes in a row!
This is the first brand I tried, purchased at Kanazawa-ya in Uonuma. Is it dry and refreshing? It tastes more like a ginjo than a rice flavor? I think it is dry. It is delicious, but I think there are different tastes.
Drinking with Akitonou fish, Koshiji-no-Kenbai Unfiltered Junmai Genzake
The taste is a gorgeous muscateliness with a hint of sweetness. The lingering bitterness and numbing stimulation. Alcoholic sensation.
Koshiji-no-Kohubai. I bought it at Machidaya because they had just started to carry it. The aroma is melon with a hint of cemedine. It has a melon-like flavor and sweetness similar to that of Kuroryu, which is different from the "light and dry" style. It also has a crispness that is typical of Niigata sake. It is said to have won a platinum award at a sake competition judged by top French sommeliers. But it is a gutsy sake.
