I asked for a junmai hiyaoroshi and was surprised to find that it was from the Joyo Sake Brewery. I had just had a tour of the brewery almost 10 years ago. The tour itself was very interesting, but the sake tasted a bit mediocre, like a second-grade sake, and was not to my liking. When I drank it again, I found it to be a softer, sweeter sake with a full-bodied, bitter taste that was thicker than I remembered from the last time I drank it. I wonder if it is the type of sweetness or the lingering sweetness, something I would be happy if it worked a little harder.
