ねむち
Today was my first time at the Expo, and I went home early after experiencing the hellish admission restrictions.
Since it is difficult not only to enter but also to stand in line at the pavilions, we shifted gears to drink beers from all over the world.
Still, there were too many people in line, and in the end I only drank a Czech beer (1,250 yen) and a can of Maltese beer (1,600 yen)...
I went back and didn't drink enough, so I opened a bottle of Asahi Super Dry (218 yen) and a can of this one.
Shizuoka Prefecture. Hamamatsu City. Hana-no-Mai Sake Brewery Co.
Hana-no-Mai Ichigou
One of the "Ichigou®" brands of Agnavi Corporation, which develops Japanese sake brands. Purchased at a nearby co-op.
Drink it cold.
The nose has a little apple, a little grain, and alcohol.
The mouthfeel is smooth. As it rolls on the tongue, the acidity typical of junmai sake expands, and a grain-like aroma wafts into the nose, with a hint of bitterness and astringency.
The aftertaste is a bit sharp and pungent, standard sake.
It's been a while since I've had a Hana-no-Mai, but there aren't many on the market.
Ingredients: Rice (domestic), Rice Koji (domestic)
Polishing ratio: 60
Alcohol content: 15.5
