This double-named bottle was brewed under the supervision of the brewer at Yukawa Sake Brewery using rice saved from the Shirafuji Sake Brewery. The aroma is quite strong. It had a slightly yellowish color, a refreshing acidity, a moderate sweetness, and a slight bitterness, and was a delicious sake with a slightly thick mouthfeel. The collaboration sake with Kaze no Mori's Aburanaga Shuzo was a draft, so I enjoyed it without much time to drink, but the one I received from a local liquor store in Wajima earlier was a fire-aged sake, so I let it sit for a long time. We could not let it stay for two summers even though it was indoors, so we have now opened the bottle. Some of the breweries that were affected by the Noto Peninsula earthquake have reopened on their own, others are brewing with the cooperation of breweries in the prefecture, but we have not seen any sake from the Shirafuji Brewery, so it appears that they are still in the process of reopening. We hope to see them again.
