Overall 9 (out of 10) I remember that it was delicious when I drank it before because it simply brought the flavor of rice to the forefront, and I have since had delicious sakes (Kamerei and Den-emon) that brought out the flavor of rice well, so I decided to repeat the experience once again. Just like when I drank it before, it is a sake that simply lets you feel the taste of rice. There is not much of a lingering aftertaste, and it cuts through quickly. However, I feel that Kamerei and Den-emon bring out the umami and aroma of the rice more strongly. I used to give it a score of 10, but as I have experienced various sakes, my palate has become more discerning, and I can't deny the feeling that the level is becoming more and more extravagant. I had it chilled to a crisp. The aroma I felt was  -Aroma: The aroma of rice flavor.  -Aroma: The aroma of rice flavor with a little bit of a tangy aroma that comes through the flowers. The higher the number, the stronger the aroma. The higher the number, the stronger the aroma (5 is the maximum)  -Spiciness: 1 at the beginning → 1 in the aftertaste  -Sweetness: 1 at the beginning → 0 in the aftertaste  -Sourness: 0 at the beginning → 0 in the aftertaste  -Bitterness: 1 at the beginning → 1 lingering 1  -Astringency: 1 at the beginning 1→ Lingering 1  -Rice flavor: 3 at the beginning → 2 in the aftertaste Mouthfeel I felt】→2 Smaller number = smooth Larger number = thicker and richer (5 is the maximum)

Overnight salted lemon koji chicken is grilled today! Boiled green pepper, fried gizzard and salad. At the store, Hakugakuzen was labeled as dry, but the aroma that wafted through my nostrils was rich and delicious.

Hi Jay & Nobby😃. Thank you 😊. Yes 😅, after a long time of sake with various flavors like umami, astringency, spiciness, etc., I suddenly want to go back to a simple, straight and sharp taste 😅.
