The first drink of September was a limited edition Hana-no-Mai sake purchased in Hamamatsu. It is a refreshingly light and dry sake that goes well with any meal. It has no peculiarities, so anyone will find it easy to drink. It is a good sake that is easy to drink.
Hananomai Sake Brewery, Hamamatsu City, Shizuoka Prefecture
Hana-no-Mai Hiyoshi Oroshi (Hiyakoshi)
A slightly higher alcohol content of 17%, made with sake rice and koji malt from Shizuoka Prefecture. Polishing ratio 60%.
We had a bottle from last year that had been sitting at home for a year.
Because of its high alcohol content, it has a strong impact on the palate, but it is not cloying and disappears easily.
Sake made from 100% local Yamada-Nishiki.
Chilled.
Refreshing aroma with a strong sense of rice. It has a slightly savory sweetness and a strong grain flavor that spreads gradually.
It is easy to match with strong dishes.

Drinking local sake with Ishimatsu Gyoza is the Hamamatsu way 😆.
Junmai sake is dry, but has a robust taste 🤤.
I feel like I'm finally back home after doing this 😆.
