The Morohaku from Fukushin that we look forward to every year is out again this year!
Morohaku signals the arrival of winter and the start of the new sake season!
It's so thick and cloudy that it's hard to believe it's been filtered!
The bottle is heavy!
The cap has an air hole drilled with a crowbar, and it is a local sake that cannot be shipped locally.
Slightly melon when opened.
Vigorously fermenting, with a petit gas feeling.
Fresh, creamy, yogurt with occasional solids.
Not too sweet, but dry and refreshingly tart to whet the appetite.
Unlike the sophistication of today's Hirotogawa or Yukidamari
It has a roughness that is typical of new sake, a sense of strength to the point of being grueling.
