Hiroshima Booth
Hayashi Sake Brewery located on Kurahashi Island in Kure City.
The president is both the director of a hospital and the president of a brewery, and it looks like he's been working both as a hospital and a brewery for three generations!
The current president is a businessman who runs a variety of facilities, including nursing homes and lodging facilities, and is a well-known personality who often appears on TV.
He also has a collection of Rolls Royce, kimonos, hanging scrolls, etc. and runs a museum.
With that preconceived notion, I wondered about the sake. I wondered about the sake, but I was intrigued by the fact that they have a toji who has won first place in a series of sake competitions.
He is also a toji at the Kinbundo Sake Brewery in Yamaguchi Prefecture and a test brewer at the Hiroshima Prefectural Food Industry Technology Center.
Polishing ratio 65%, Hachitan-Nishiki 15%, Sake degree +4, 1560 yen
Classic taste, but neat and well-rounded.
It is spicy but light and a little fruity.
The impression is that it must have been brewed with care.
