Bought it on the recommendation of the liquor store owner. And to my surprise, I liked it. I think it's a hiyaoroshi, but I think it tastes better when it's cold, with a slight gassy feeling and pear-like acidity.
This nuance is similar to the Planet No. 9 I had a while ago. I thought it was Kumamoto yeast.
I've been avoiding it basically just because it's hiyaoroshi, so I wouldn't have come across it without your recommendation. Thanks again🙏.
I went for one more round of the comparison with "kiritanpo" as an accompaniment!
The first one is "Harukasumi" on the right.
The aroma of sugarcane penetrates through the nose.
It has a clear, but soft, touch that blends in nicely.
It is dry with a mineral taste, but it also has the umami of rice and a bit of fruity flavor, making it a high quality sake even for a honjozo!
Today's sake is Harukaze from Kuribayashi in Akita❗️ its Junmai-shu❗️❗️
The aroma is a refreshing ginjo aroma❗️As you take a sip, you get a sharp sibilance after a dense texture on the tongue❗️And then the ginjo aroma leaves your nose❗️Ginjo aroma is a good sake as a mealtime sake⭕️

My eldest son went home this week and we had a gorgeous dinner party✨We went to the riverside for day camping at noon...but it started raining ☔️ 10 minutes after we arrived and we had to leave immediately😭The ingredients we bought were today's snacks 😊Camping at home✨.
Enoki's what-a-scallop, black wagyu beef sukiyaki, salt grilled fall fish, beef tongue salt, turnip steak, etc. ‼️
The snacks are full! Now, let's open a bottle of this one! The lesson of our family, no hassle with special junmai: ‼️
The first attack is always the same, and it complements the snacks 👍Delicious Delicious Delicious Delicious 😋.
Purchased at Sumino Sake Shop in Nagata-ku, Kobe City, Hyogo Prefecture.
It has a pleasantly soft sweetness and a gentle yet deep flavor. A sake to be savored long into the autumn evening. It may be best as a food sake.
