Hori
This is a strawberry from Hououmida.
This is my first Hououmida.
I made my debut with strawberries before sake. I saw it at a liquor store that I don't usually go to, and I was fascinated by the fact that it is a limited-edition winter sake with a two-month shelf life.
Tochiotome from Tochigi Prefecture is used.
Instead of fermenting the juice, the strawberries are liquefied by the enzymes in the sake. Since the strawberries are bottled in their raw state without destroying their cells, the taste is extremely fresh. You can feel the fibers and crumbles that have not fully dissolved, and it is as if you are tasting the strawberries themselves.
I will try to taste more of them in the future, as there seem to be various types such as peach and yuzu in addition to strawberry.

Good morning, Hori 😃.
I had an image that you drink a lot of Senkou 😊 Surprisingly, you are a Hatsumida! Please start with the liqueur 🍓 and try some of the regular sakes 👋.

Thank you for your comment, Jay & Nobby!
Yes, so far all of our Tochigi sake has been Senkou 😊Hououomida has many varieties so I'm not sure which one to start with. I am curious about Mikumari, do you have any recommendations?
