Shiga Local Sake Festival in Otsu 2023 (7)
Toshihiko Yasui Sake Brewery / "Hatsuzakura" Koka City, Shiga Prefecture
Founded in 1884, well water from the Suzuka mountain range subsoil.
Taro-san, the sixth generation, participates in sake brewing, brews New Hatsusakura, and designs the label.
The label was designed by Taro, who is the sixth generation of brewers.
The specifications are said to be different from those in the photo, but it is a gentle sake, easy to drink, and has a light "nama-hashiroshi" feel to it.
AS TIME GO BY
Aged at room temperature for 3 years. It is a collaboration sake with Hata Shuzo. It is surprisingly gentle and has no sake-like sensation. It has a warming feeling as if it soaks into your body.
Yamada Ginjiro.
This one is also different from the specs in the picture, but they said it was aged for 6 years. Almond aroma from the nose. It has a very strange sweetness and umami taste.
I was quite impressed with this brewery. It is not fruity, but more like an austere, smoldering structure. It is not flashy, but it is a sake that gently accompanies you, but also makes a strong statement.

Hatsuzakura was the sake that awakened me to the fact that the sake of Honan is great besides Laughing Four Seasons and Three Rising Stars 👍.
