We opened a bottle of Hachinohe Sake Brewery's Summer Doburokku.
I have been wanting to try this bottle ever since I started drinking sake in earnest at the end of last year.
I forgot to ask how to open the bottle when I purchased it, and nearly spilled it. After about 5 minutes of repeatedly opening and closing the cap, I was finally able to open the bottle. I have had a lot of sake in my life, but I have never had a sake with this much fizzing power.
When poured into a glass, it bubbled and the sweet aroma of nigori sake spread.
The taste is sweet, but also has the complexity of nigori sake, with the umami of rice, sourness, and bitterness. I was aware that I like sweet activated nigori sake, but this Summer Doburokku was one of my top five favorite sake so far. I hope to secure at least three bottles next year.
I had an image that activated nigori sake is for the cold season, but Natsu Doburokku was a perfect summer sake with a refreshing feeling from the gasiness and bitterness. In the past, a sake called "Doburokku" without "Natsu" was available in winter, but I wonder if it is no longer available. Incidentally, the name "Doburokku" comes from the rice polishing ratio of 69%.

Good morning, Hori 😃.
It's hard to open the bottle 😅 but it's much more than that 😙.
I didn't know Doburok 🎸 came from the rice polishing ratio 😳.

Thank you Jay & Nobby for your comments â
The long awaited summer dobrokku surprised us with more flavor than we could have imagined 😆.
Sake has a lot of playful naming 😊.
