Delicious in a Wineglass, Gold Award in the
Almost wine in a wine glass!
Delicious! As expected from my favorite prefecture, Oita!
As I type this, I've already drunk it all, so I can't give you a detailed report, all I can recall is that it was delicious.
Sanwa Shuzui, famous for its shochu Iichiko, is a Japanese sake brewery.
It seems the company was initially founded as a sake brewery.
I really wanted to drink a certain sake, so I bought it together when I popped into Hasegawa Sake Shop!
It is gorgeous and juicy with a light gasiness. A trace of bitterness at the end.
How come they don't sell this delicious sake?
It's a modern sake and they should push more sake 🤔.
Refreshingly fruity, gently sweet, moderately acidic, with a hint of schwarziness. It is delicious.
It is said to have won the gold medal in the "2024 Delicious Sake in a Wine Glass Award", but I didn't know that and drank it with my usual sake cup. Next time, I will definitely try it in a wine glass.
Sake made from Hinohikari rice, an excellent rice rice.
The aroma is fresh and gorgeous, with a slight soy sauce nuance. It has a wonderful honey-like sweetness and rich flavor. I think the fragrance comes out when it is near room temperature.
The flavor is worthy of the label and name.
