This is a sake from my hometown - Echizen Ono (Ono City, Fukui Prefecture).
It used to be sold at roadside stations, but I looked for it again on my return trip, but I didn't seem to see much of it in the city. I wondered if they are limiting the amount of brewing - or if they are just out of stock.
This is the one I found in my parents' fridge.
Cool and pungent.
A cool spiciness, followed by a nice, clean rice flavor.
Then, a strong wave of spiciness hits you.
The spiciness swells up while accepting freshness, umami, and sweetness.
The intense flavor is intoxicating.
After all, Genpei is delicious.
I found out that Genpei Shuzo went bankrupt last November, and the direct sales shop was closed.
The story of the bankruptcy and revival of the brewery was also seen in the morning drama "Ranman," and I look forward to the time when I can experience the taste of Genpei again.

This is a sake from my hometown - Ono City, Oku-Echizen region, Fukui Prefecture.
I bought this sake when I went back home for summer vacation, and it just appeared.
It has a sweet aroma that spreads quickly, with a sharp pungency.
The sharpness of the spiciness is complemented by the sharpness of the aroma, which reminds me a bit of Western-style sake.
It is a country sake, but it is quite gorgeous and sparkling.
How about when it is warmed up?
The spiciness rushes in like a gust of wind.
The spiciness rushes through like a gust of wind, gushing out sweetness and melting away the flavors of the snacks at a torrent-like speed. It is just like spring melt water. The faint scent of vanilla in the aftertaste is also a nice touch.
I enjoy the speed and grace.

I was a little curious about it with lots of writing, so I bought it.
I heard it was super dry.
Hohoho.
It has a pungent taste that goes down your throat, but it also has a delicious flavor that makes it easy to drink.
It has a spiciness that goes down your throat, but it also has a delicious flavor that makes you feel like you can drink it without hesitation.
Let's try it with meat and fish to see how well it goes with them.
The spiciness of the sake also faded when paired with tonteki (pork belly) with sweet and spicy sauce.
