Hakugakusen純米大吟醸 濡烏
ジャイヴ
This time I reached 300 check-ins 🏳.
Thanks to the progress I've made recently in my drinking activities (drinking out), I've reached the milestone pretty quickly 😁.
Following 200CI and 291CI, I opened this bottle to commemorate the occasion 🍶.
Hakugakusen Junmai Daiginjo Nurekasu.
This time, we compared the sake with a sceptered stone sake cup and a Kiyomizu-yaki sake cup.
[Gugumi-nomi]
The aroma of rich and full rice, the mouthfeel, the deep and clear sweetness and umami, the sourness and spiciness, the sharpness, the deep and long lingering aftertaste, and the glossy aftertaste that lingers at the end.
Trip time measured at 32 seconds ⏳.
[Sake cup.]
Aroma of mellow rice, clear and transparent sweetness and umami, followed by a deep and pleasant aftertaste that makes you open your mouth, and a glossy aftertaste that remains at the end.
[Tsuki no Oubai]
Rich rice aroma, clear and transparent umami with a hint of sweetness and acidity, and a pleasant lingering aftertaste with a glossy finish.
The acidity that produces the lustrous aftertaste common to all of them is superb!
The origin of "Nurekasu" comes from the Japanese name for the color of a woman's black hair, which has a beautiful sheen like a wet raven's feather.
The entrée was Wakasoku and Hinezoku from Tokkuriken, a restaurant in the Togo district of Fukui City where Yasumoto Sake Brewery, which brews Hakugakusen, is located, and Yakisabasushi from Bishamon Sushi.

[Bishamon Sushi's top recommendation is the BATTERA, but they are really into mackerel and it says the season is from September to February, so I put it on my CI list for next time 😁.

I was measuring it myself and I thought "long! I thought it was too long 😁.
It's a bit pricey, so it might be more worth it if it takes longer to empty 🤣.

Thanks for your comment, Manachy 🙇.
I thought I'd just measure the one before that was so interesting and lingering 😁.
Be careful when you're playing mahjong, I'm afraid I'm going to show my aheh face ✨.

Thank you for your comment, Takashi!
The Togo area of Fukui City, where the Yasumoto Sake Brewery brews Hakugakusen, is famous for its rice, and is also home to the Mouri Sake Brewery, which makes Sari, and the Mikawa Sake Brewery, which makes Maibijin 😁.

Thanks for your comment, Maru 🙇.
I limited myself to a very narrow range this time 😁.
There are two more models of Hakugaku Sen that I haven't drank, so I'm on a mission to have no trouble finding stuff until 500 CI✨.

Thanks for your comment, Nemuchi 🙇.
I changed it up a bit since we had similar content on the 291CI right before 😁.
The lingering comfort is the best of the year so far ✨.

It's hard to get famous sake in my hometown, so I'd like to explore my hometown in depth 😁.
But all the sake left in the cellar are from outside of the prefecture.

ジャイヴ
Thank you for your comment, Maechen 🙇.
I've been drinking a lot of out-of-prefecture sake when I'm out drinking, so I thought I'd mark this milestone with Fukui sake ✨.
I'll look for the next one when I'm done with the "Hakugakusen" comp 🤣.

We were actually going to pair it with BATTERA, but the grilled mackerel sushi was also GOOD 😋.
I'm still going to go with Fukui Ai🥰 for a while more!

It was the beginning of my idea to dig deep and complete the "Hakugaku Sen" that I had a connection with 😁.
I still have more sake to drink and I want to drink it healthy and delicious!

Fukui sake "Kuroryu" and "Bon" are famous all over the country, but we also want to show people that there are other good sake 😁.
If you see one, please try it ✨.

Thanks for your comment, Aladdin 🙇.
At 291CI, I tied the entrée to Fukui Prefecture, but this time I focused even more on the Togo area of Fukui City, where the sake brewery is located 😁.
The mackerel sushi made by sushi restaurants will be nori-maki (seaweed roll)
Japanese>English

Thank you shinsaku3 for your comment 🙇.
I had a Kagamibiraki at my own wedding and the sake brewery lent me a barrel of sake free of charge.
They have a product lineup throughout the year, so be sure to check them out!

Thank you kino. for your comment 🙇.
It was a perfect match with the oiled and savory grilled mackerel sushi 😁.
The ones sold at souvenir shops and ekiben are the ones on vinegared rice, but the ones made by sushi restaurants tend to be nori-maki (seaweed roll).

Thanks for your comment, Luteltemi 🙇.
This time we used more sake cups than usual to compare 😁.
The sake brewery is located in Fukui city, where the water is good and the rice is good, so we served with food from a restaurant that operates there!

Thank you for your comment, Noodle Sake King 🙇.
I paired it with a local treat to celebrate the milestone and to thank the local sake 😁.
The grilled mackerel sushi was pretty big, so I had a big belly after eating it✨.

Thank you for your comment, Mr. Yoohee 🙇.
This "wet crow" is the highest rank of "Hakugakusen", so it was a good price 💦.
I need a reason to buy it because it is a milestone 😁Next time, I will aim for the highest price!

I was excited to buy a bottle of "Hakugakuzen", the highest peak of "Hakugakuzen", and it was a superb bottle including the design 😁.
I have two more "Shiratakesen" stories in my schedule, so I'll go with Fukui bound until 500CI!

Thank you for your comment, Tsubu-chan.
I tried to limit the number to the area where I live as much as possible, but it was quite difficult to choose the right sake 💦.
We're also holding a local sake event along the Shinkansen line, so be sure to try some ✨.
