This is a new sake made with Hanafuki, which is rare for the Miura Sake Brewery. While the smoothness on the palate is always present, there is a gorgeous rice aroma with more than a hint of sweetness. This is followed by a thick rice flavor. There is sweetness, but more than that, umami penetrates the body. The wine finishes with an acidity that is different from that of Hachisen and a crisp aftertaste. It is definitely a sake to be paired with fish. Although they are the same sake, this sake has a different character from the directly pumped raw sake made from Toyobai rice. It is said that Toyobai is the brand that led to Toyobai being called post-Jushidai. Miura Shuzo is indeed a master of the art of making sake rice dance in the clear water of Mount Iwaki. Tonight's Toyobai was also very delicious. Thank you very much for your hospitality.
Later in the evening
Oh, it's divine when I eat it with grilled flounder. Too delicious.
