Gonzo
In February, Shinkame Shuzo was at a nearby department store and I tasted a variety of their sake and liked it, but did not buy it because there was still some Shinkame left at that time.
At that time, I was told that Hikomago was a 100% Yamadanishiki version of Shinkame.
The other day, I went to the same department store and found both Shinkame and Hikoson on the shelf, so I ended up buying Hikoson.
Once again, I realized that Yamada-Nishiki is a rice that is sweet and pleasant to the palate when made into sake.
In the winter, I think I will be drinking Hikomago or Shinkame warmed up as a regular. I'm going to enjoy it until it gets a little warmer and look forward to buying the next one before the end of the year.
