The last time I had a bottle of Seikai, it was so good! This time Hoshikai is said to be one as a contrast.
While Qinghai is impressive for its juicy acidity, this one is characterized by its gentle sweetness and deliciousness. The acidity is soft and reserved so as to give it a contour. Each taste is well balanced and seems to express the sense of relief and elation of standing on the beach at night.
It's really amazing that the same brewery can make such differently characterized, each insanely delicious sake, all with the same summer ocean theme! The shock of encountering the blue sea is Aomi, and the one you want to drink forever and ever is Kukai. Both are the best of both worlds 😊.

Ah, this is similar to Shinshu Kamerei's Jungin Hitogokotchi. I think I'll buy another bottle.
