Drinking out series
Hakusetsu Hime by Watanabe Shuzo brewery in Ogaki City, Gifu Prefecture.
So minor that the brewery is not registered? I wonder...
I was able to come across it after last year, though.
It is slightly sweet and has a short aftertaste.
It seems to be easy to drink by itself without any side dishes.
It's good for after-dinner drinks.
Fresh apple-like aroma. In the mouth, chili green apple, fresh sweet and sour of muscat. If you don't have low alcohol like this, you may be a little concerned about the alcohol taste, but it is delicious.
Watanabe Shuzojo, the brewery. (I couldn't find it in the registration).
It is quite refreshing for an unfiltered unpasteurized sake. The aroma is a little bit grainy.
It is a very good sake for the first drink.
This is my first experience with an aged but unpasteurized sake. It has a mellow and beautiful aroma of aging. The mouthfeel is very refreshing, with lots of minerality and a crisp dry taste, but in the second half the umami spreads. It is not a trendy sweet and savory sake, but it is very beautiful and delicious. Pair with Japanese food.
It was recommended by a good looking liquor store and was brought to the bar attached to the bar. Smooth and suitable for drinking in a wine glass, but with a good taste of rice and alcohol 👌
