Hibi Jozo brewed this sake from one of Hananoka Shuzo's signature rice varieties, Homasu.
It is rare for other sake breweries to brew HOMASENE!
It has the clarity of Hinichi and the wildness of Homasu, making it truly Hinichi's Homasu 🌾🍶.

The appearance is a near-transparent silver color.
Slightly subdued gasiness.
Aroma is fresh and sweet.
Impression is pear.
Very similar to Sancho Hozu, but with a refreshing solidity that has lost its sweetness and glaze.
Aroma of clean whey and rice aroma about the level of Kamishinko.
Smooth texture.
The manicured aroma is overwhelming, spreading at once from a modest sweetness.
The acidity is gentle and very moderate, and the gassy sensation runs through leaving a light stimulation.
On the tongue, one can enjoy the flowing transparency and the beautiful sweetness and umami that slightly tingles in the midst of it.
Toward the end, the bitter bitterness that is typical of Hozu can be felt, while the sharpness of the taste seems to blend in.
The lingering aftertaste is medium short, with a pleasant lingering clean bitterness.
Nichinichi has a very low alcohol content of 11 degrees, but so that it does not become thin and unsatisfying, the umami and flavor of the rice are properly carried and expressed as a sense of transparency!
Nichinichi Hozu furthermore expressed a tight and mature taste with the wildness of Hozu. ☺️
