Hananoka Sake Brewery is one of the leading sake breweries in Kumamoto. It has two brands, Hananoka for the local market and Sanchi for the global market. The icon on the Aztec-esque San-do label (nōsōin seal) is proof of the binding play in sake brewing, and in this case, counterclockwise from the top left, it means: no fertilizer, rice grown in the Kikuchi River basin, no agricultural chemicals, wooden vat brewing, no yeast, and no yeast added, and no sake yeast. The sake is only a moment after drinking it, but the producer's attention to detail is boundless.
As usual, I caught this bottle at the Hasegawa Sake Shop in Tokyo Station. It was a joy to open the bottle at the end of the year, when my work was finished and I had cleared one of my health issues. The carbonation is so vigorous that the lid flies off. The citrus aroma is gorgeous, and the deep sweet and sour taste is like champagne. A modern style of beautiful sake that will make you swoon😍.
