One of the four brands selected for Ibaraki Prefecture's "Sake Young Sake Breweries Revitalization Project.
This is the "Hinoki" version of "Ibafore," a sake made with either "Sugi" (Japanese cedar) or "Hinoki" (Japanese cypress) sticks, allowing you to enjoy your favorite barrel-style sake.
Tasting the opened bottle, the taste is clear with no peculiarities. On the first day after putting the stick in, it smelled like drinking from a Masu, and on the third day, I took the stick out, feeling that it was completely barrel sake. I wish I could have tried it for a few more days 😁, although my husband is not a big fan of wood-scented sake, so that's not an option.
