一本義 仙介🇺🇦
This sake is from my hometown, Echizen-Ono in Fukui Prefecture.
It's been a while since I've had Hanagaki.
It seems that Hanagaki is gaining more and more recognition both within and outside of the prefecture.
The color is quite yellow. As expected of a Yamahai sake.
Wow! Fresh hinekoso!
I don't know how to describe it, but the hinekoso jumps out with a fresh and volatile pungency. This pungency resonates well until the end.
The taste is supported by a deep bass-like flavor.
The fresh pungency is quite accented.
How about when warmed up?
The fresh aroma becomes a little stronger.
Fine sweetness like a fruit wine.
The volatile spiciness seems to fly away a little slowly and lightly when warmed. This spiciness tightens the sweetness and does not make it dull.
But the freshness is the most notable feature. I would drink it cold.
I would also like to try a sake made from the traditional sake yeast.
Tomorrow is the end of the New Year holidays.
I will go back to Hyogo tomorrow.
Good luck with your work!
