Fukuda Fukkai Bangaishu

Fukkai was rebranded by Fukuda in Nagasaki. I had previously tried Fukuda Bangaishu and gave it 3 stars, so I wasn't really attracted to it, but I was again attracted to a sake made with rice outside the same range, so I bought it. When I poured it into the chirori, it started bubbling and had a nice aroma like sweet candy. Unlike the image of the aroma, the sour-sweet flavor was subdued and the carbonation added a drier feel. The taste has a hint of Japanese pear, and while it is sharp, it does not have much richness or umami.
