Brooklyn Kuraグランドプレーリー
桂むき太郎
Hakkaisan ✖️ Brooklyn, USA.
100% American Yamadanishiki, full-bodied, acidic, gentle ginjo aroma. Green apple-like. Slightly effervescent as well.
I felt a kind of oaky flavor that I had never felt before. When I asked the lecturer and seminar staff at Hakkaisan, they explained that American Yamadanishiki does not have much heart white, and that the technology for filtering is still developing.
I like the fact that they are focusing on community building as well as sake brewing. I look forward to the future of sake in America.
