The aroma is subdued, but it has a strong gasiness and juicy sweetness, and the bitterness spreads and finishes cleanly in the second half.
The body is well-balanced, and the quality of the sake is such that it is not tiring to drink even in the summer.
This sake is a dream collaboration with SENKYO, which uses ancient rice "Aikoku No. 3" as part of an agricultural promotion project!
At first, a rich sweet aroma jumps into the mouth. The taste is a little bitter...is this the flavor brewed with Aikoku No. 3? This sake is a miracle from the ancient resurrection!
This is a sake that should be enjoyed together with Aikoku Sengoku.
A collaboration sake between Houou Mita and Senkou.
Since they are two of my favorite brands, they are delicious even if you don't drink them. And of course it is delicious even if you actually drink it.
The refreshing acidity is the best.
Next to the Kabutomushi, there was another cool and gorgeous bottle, so I asked for it.
It is Mikumari of Houou Mita!
I remember how surprised I was when I drank it for the first time last year.
It has a smooth texture that melts in the mouth, and the clear acidity tightens up the whole experience ✨.
It has been a little while since I opened my mouth, so I don't have the shwashy feeling I had last year.
This reduces the enjoyment of the first touch, but thanks to the lightness of the flavor, I could feel more of the flavor.
The beer is very smooth and the gasiness is very nice.
Would you buy this one too? 😂.
The second bottle was a local Tochigi Prefecture sake with a slightly different flavor.
Aikoku" is one of the three major varieties of sake cultivated in the Meiji era (1868-1912) and brewed using the traditional sake yeast.
Everyone was surprised at how different it tasted, so I think that alone was a good thing. ☺️
It was already extremely hot before the summer arrived, so I decided to drink something other than sake. I searched for a non-Nihon-shu to drink, and since it was from Houou Mita's fruit series, I was sure it would be a good choice.
I tried it and found it to be a sticky, sweet, and quite tasty bottle. I felt like I could finish it in one night.
