On the eve of the House of Councillors election, I left Katamachi, Fukui City and went to another restaurant I used to frequent.
[After leaving Sushi Ichimonme, I had to make a time adjustment, so I went to another restaurant I used to frequent.
[Marukoma used to have a store in front of Fukui Station, and it is one of the oldest shops in downtown Katamachi where customers from back then still go.
After saying hello to the owner and the second generation for the first time in a while, we ordered Akahoshi (red star) and broiled eel since it was the day of the ox for the summer solstice.
Hanagaki BLEND IN Junmai Koshu.
The aroma has a soft and sour tang, the mouthfeel is full and mellow with a mature aroma, and the finish is clear and clean with a sweet aftertaste that is typical of Hanagaki!
The taste is as good as the dark sauce of broiled eel 😋.
This is a bottle based on the concept of pursuing harmony of flavors by blending several junmai sake that have been aged for over 3 years. ✨️
Very beautiful rainbow label 🌈
I have to drink it.
What's the brand name?
Hanagaki, since I met it once at a sushi restaurant in Higashimuroran.
It was dry that time too, but when I compare it with W on this day, it brings back memories of how spicy it was!

Limited release this season
I had corona for the first time last week. Unusual fatigue and taste disorder. I have already recovered, but for some reason, I lost my desire to drink as if I had become possessed. Is this an aftereffect of the corona?
So, I opened a bottle for rehabilitation and also because I was curious to see what would happen if I opened a bottle of alcohol, although I was not very enthusiastic about it.
I felt that the oli was the most prominent part of the bottle. It is quite sweet. The center of the taste is bitterness, and it breaks up the sweetness nicely.
Contrary to the package, it tastes like an old man's favorite.
I think this is delicious.
Good morning, Mr. White Tama!
I see you had corona💦.
First of all, I'm glad you are recovering🍀.
I had more trouble with the corona than with the flu😅.
I'm also rehabilitated from the alcoholism.
Thank you, ma-ki.
I would like to be rehabilitated and ready to go by the time I have a good drink in the fall.
But still, I'm having trouble because I've noticed that I can easily lose weight if I don't drink alcohol.
Hi there, Syrotama 😃.
You finally made your debut 🦠😓.
I guess the symptoms are different for everyone, but losing the desire to drink was a strong one 🥲.
But it sure does make you lose weight😅I have to pursue coexistence with alcohol!
Good evening, Jay & Nobby!
I didn't realize how hard it was to get a Corona (I initially thought it was heat stroke).
I plan to use this as an opportunity to replace the contents of the cellar.
Good evening, Mr. Shirotama, good evening 🌜️ I'm sorry to hear about your first corona infection...I'm glad you're recovering😊I had a taste disorder and couldn't taste alcohol for 3 weeks💦I'm back to rehab drinking again in bits and pieces😊Is there any way to lose weight while drinking 🤣?
Good evening, Nemuchi.
Your taste disorder is a crook. I still feel like I am still out of alignment. I have a way of drinking that helps me lose weight, but I do have it. When I used to work alone, I had alcohol for dinner and this helped me lose weight. It seems to shorten my life span, though.
Mellow aroma. A little bit of paint.
A little caramelized rice flavor.
The impression of umami comes forward more than the aroma.
The acidity in the second half gives the impression of dryness.
The aroma may make you think it is not good, but it tastes surprisingly good.
Degree of preference 3.5/5
The last one is Hanagaki in Echizen-Ono.
I think this one may have had the most character.
It was a smooth, sweet, yet sharp and crisp drink.
I tried Wakasa's specialty, heshiko, for the first time, and it was so delicious that it made my sake go down a notch 🤣.
