I don't usually drink Mutsu Hachisen, but I couldn't pass up this one. So I bought a bottle of Mutsu Hachisen 250th Anniversary, and let's see what it tastes like!
The aroma is both floral and refreshing, with hints of muscat and pear. The smooth brewing water is a perfect marriage of juicy sweetness like tangerine and sourness and bitterness like hakusaku, which is very enjoyable. Later on, the tanginess that is unique to Hachisen caught up with it and was eliminated along with the sharpness.
What is this sake that tastes like hassaku? It's too good!
So, congratulations to the Hachinohe Sake Brewery on its 250th anniversary! Thank you for the food and drink tonight!
