First of all, a promotion. Have you already bought the JR East Project's Hakobyun Delivery Direct Kumi Toyohai that went on sale today, December 5th? I bought it today and will introduce it to you sooner or later! That's all! Here is the main story!
I thought I knew what I was getting into when I drank Yamada-Nishiki Sansho, but if I am going to judge Sansho, it should be brewed with rice that is unique to Kumamoto. This is my first time drinking Hozu, how do you like it? Let's go!
I was afraid it would leak, but it turned out to be fine. The carbonation was amazing. The lactic acid taste like calpis is the same as before, but there is a sweet melon-like aroma hidden in it. A little more floral than the Ninoh Brewery? The lactic sweetness, acidity, bitterness, and umami produced from the gaseous, slightly hard mineral brewing water is quite intense, with a sweetness like a shortcake. This beautiful and strong cream-like sweetness tastes like Senkou's raw sake. The slight depth and sweetness of the grapes disappear like a mist. Hozu has a strong sweetness, but not too much. I thought to myself, "This is just like making sweets. Thank you again for this evening!
