アラジンFrom April, my store, "Sake and Otsumami Chuin Shinmachi", which used to be my favorite standing drinking place that I frequented frequently, has become more distant 🥲.
But I had some business to attend to at the beginning of the year 😅.
I was given a bottle of Prototype, a test brew from Kitanishi Shuzo, the brewer of Sairai, Bunraku and Bunraku Reborn.
This is the first time for me to try their Honjozo 🤔.
The label design looks like it was shaved with a coin 😎.
The aroma is of young bananas with a hint of fresh green vegetation.
On the palate, a fresh sweetness comes in quickly, followed by a bitter yet refreshing acidity from the alsobe, and finally, the hottness of the alcohol leaves the nose.
The taste is rich and the aftertaste is clean and delicious. ☺️
Maybe Aruzoe will be added to Sairai's lineup in the future?
A flavorful honjozo like this would be very welcome.
Thanks for the treat 🍶.

ヤスベェGood morning, Aladdin 😀
I'm sorry to say that I won't have a chance to meet you at chuin from now on 😅.
I didn't think that this label was a special sake by Sairai and I didn't go through with it 🤣.
Too bad 😢

アラジンGood evening, kan😃.
Sairai has a lot of tasteful bottle designs ☺️ This one is a test brew so there are many theories about whether it is Sairai or not 😅The coin scratch design is excellent!
I hope you will drink it because it was delicious 😊.

アラジンGood evening, Yasube!
At chuin, we often serve local limited edition sake and different brands of sake, so if you see a suspicious sake you've never heard of, I recommend asking anyway!
I recommend you to try Chiyonohana, a local brand in Imi 🍶.
