For my second drink at CHUIN, my favorite stand-up drinking place, I decided to have a hanayo, which has also been a long time coming. THE MATCH is an unfiltered junmai ginjo sake brewed with two types of sake rice, Yamadanishiki and Omachi, and polished to a 55% rice polishing ratio in order to match the two. The appearance is slightly misty with a hint of orikara. The aroma is of ripe pineapple with a veil of rice aroma like freshly pounded rice cake. Tropical. Soft mouthfeel. The acidity, which is like the sweetness removed from the pineapple, spreads out and is followed by a hint of sweetness and a firm bitterness. The clear flavor spreads, but the bitterness is more than that. It has a dry taste without a dry feeling, but thanks to its aroma, it can be drunk in a gorgeous way. What surprised me was that it was quite bitter. I like bitter sake, so I don't have a problem with it, but it may not be for everyone 🤔. However, the bitterness was so nice that I thought it would be good heated up, but the owner seemed busy, so I just had it cold 🍶.

Hi Aladdin 😃 I didn't understand when I drank it the other day as a toast at an offline meeting, but when I drank it at home I thought it had a very bitter aftertaste 🤔I thought it was a little different type from the usual hana-yosu. I accepted it thinking 😁.

Good morning, bouken 😃. I envy you to begin with that you can drink it both outside and at home 😁. I sometimes hear reviews from other places that Huayangyu is bitter and Kawada-san also said that sometimes it's bitter 🤔 it's delicious though 😊.
