bouken
I have been drinking Ikegame, but this is my first time to try Kurokabuto.
I was going to buy Ichidrop Nidrop but there was Kurokabuto so I went here. I visited again later and bought Ichidrop Nidrop.
I bought it at Hanaki Sake Brewery in Rokko Road.
I'll write down the brands they carry since they don't have social networking services.
Ganki, Yamamotozakura, Gonohyu, Tsuneyama, Ikegame, Kurokabuto, Itaru, Koigawa, Naekaya, Ichidrop Nidrop (only fresh stored sake in the snow), Kawazuru, Garyubai, Amanoto, Oze no Yukimeltoke, Hazen Hakubai, Juichisu (Chitotsuru's brand for their distributors?) Iwanoi, Okuharima, Senzuke, Kukura, Yukihikoyama, Chiyodagura, etc.
Some of them may be purchased from wholesalers, etc., but this is what we have on hand.
I got the impression that they have a large selection of Ganki, and they are pushing Ganki.
This sake is made from black malted rice used for shochu and awamori. Juicy sweetness like apple or strawberry.
I wonder if the strong acidity comes from the koji.
I have the impression that the slight bitterness is accentuated.
