ハヤカワ
Ohmine, an internationally popular sake brewed in Yamaguchi Prefecture, introduces "3 Grains Nama-Zume Hiyoroshi Yamadanishiki" for the autumn season. The carefully selected Yamadanishiki rice is polished to 60%. The sake is brewed in early spring and allowed to mature slowly, resulting in a bottle with a beautiful sake quality that combines maturity and clarity. This is a beautiful autumn sake that shows off its beauty and superb maturity. It is perfect for enjoying with seasonal foods. The true essence of this sake is at temperatures close to room temperature. Why not start with a lightly chilled bottle and enjoy it in a relaxed manner? Aroma Refreshing aroma reminiscent of muscat and apples. In a good sense, it is not like a chilled wholesale sake, and the gorgeous aroma will excite your expectations. Taste From the smooth mouthfeel, which is typical of aged sake, the rich umami spreads out mellowly and releases a sense of presence. Along with a clear, fruity aroma, the taste is deep and profound, intertwined with a clear acidity that extends gradually and a faintly spicy, prickly flavor. The exquisite sense of balance is pleasant, and the lingering aftertaste lingers long after swallowing.

New Moon" is only available at a few of our distributors. Once you drink it, you will be impressed by its overwhelming cost performance. It has an elegant ginjo aroma with no unpleasant taste and a soft, smooth mouthfeel. The delicious flavor of the rice spreads slowly and has a crisp, clean finish. It is truly a wonderful sake with this taste at this price. The name of the brewery's representative sake, "Ame-go-no-Tsuki," comes from an essay entitled "Nature and Life" written by the novelist Tokutomi Roka in 1899, in which he wrote, "In the sky after the rain, a bright moon shines brightly around us. The name "Tokufu Rehana" (Toku-miro-ka) is derived from the phrase "the moon shining brightly in the sky after the rain" in his essay "Nature and Life" published in 1900.

Kijoshu was developed in 1973 by National Tax Agency engineers based on Japan's oldest sake brewing method. Sake is usually brewed with rice, rice malt, and water, but this process replaces some of the water with sake. The sake undergoes another fermentation process in the mash, resulting in a thicker and sweeter sake. The sake is named "Yonotori" (meaning "the bird of the day" in Japanese) in reference to the rebirth of the sake. The sake added to the product is aged for one year in oak barrels, which gives it a vanilla-like aroma that enhances the sweetness of the sake. In addition, the sake is now made in wooden vats, making it the one and only "Kijo-zake" (noble sake).

Yamahai sake generally distributed in the market is conventionally enjoyed when heated, but this sake is brewed under the theme of "Yamahai to be enjoyed chilled". The technique produces more malic acid and succinic acid than lactic acid, giving the sake a modern taste with a distinctly refreshing acidity rather than the body of Yamahai. When cooled, it is refreshing and fruity, similar to a citrus cocktail, and has a very distinctive presence. The core of its sake quality design is its "compatibility with the rocks. Even if the ice melts a little, the flavor does not diminish; in fact, it goes down the throat smoothly and is addictively delicious. You can fully enjoy the fruity, fresh, sweet and sour taste of a completely new world of Yamahai.

After three years of research, we have finally succeeded in releasing a new product, which is a "mizu-hashiroshi" (water yeast) brewed using the lactic acid acidity of kurazuke yeast, a technique said to have been developed in the Muromachi period (1333-1573). When poured, it has a slightly cloudy, slightly yellow color. The aroma is mellow, with a hint of sweetness reminiscent of honey, a hint of sourness, and a hint of grain in the northern part of the aroma. In the mouth, there is a hint of sweetness and a sharp, powerful acidity that rushes through! The sharp acidity is sharp and sharp! The umami and graininess from the low-polished rice bring complexity to the palate, which finishes with a lingering acidity. Please chill it first and enjoy the attack of this acidity.

Takachiyo豊醇無盡 青ラベル純米おりがらみ

ハヤカワ
The hiragana "Takachiyo" is a limited edition sake produced exclusively for our distributors, inspired by the mellow, fruit-like taste of fruit. The blue "Takachiyo" is an orikarami sake, meaning it is fired only once. Despite its unusual production, it is surprisingly the only year-round product in the "Takachiyo" series. In this sake, the image of "grapefruit" is used. It is not the result, but rather it is made to resemble a grapefruit. It is a very interesting experiment. Upon opening the bottle, of course, the aroma is a fresh, grapefruit-like, and refreshing toppling aroma. When you drink it, the taste is amazing! The sweetness of the flavor comes rushing in with a thud. And the refreshing feeling that comes along with it is acidity. The "ori" may be a major factor in bringing about this grapefruit-like flavor. It has a fresh acidity with sweetness as its main taste. I have the impression that this is a next-generation sake that has gotten rid of the so-called traditional "sake feeling. We can confidently recommend this bottle!

As suggested by its name, Jikin Junmai Daiginjo NABARI uses Yamadanishiki from a local contract farmer in Nabari City, Mie Prefecture. When we visited the brewery previously, we were told that "the farmers are working very hard to improve the quality of the product, anyway. This bottle is one that is especially filled with the brewery's thoughts and feelings. Its wonderful taste begins with a noble and very good aroma. In the mouth, you will find moderate sweetness, drinkability, and juiciness that can be matched with food. Finally, the body of the Yamada-Nishiki perfectly combines with its flavor, and it falls stone-like on the tongue with a perfect deliciousness. The lingering aftertaste is wonderful, with just the right amount of local clay nuances. You can feel these nuances, which are as good as those of the famous production areas of Hyogo and Awa. We could feel the efforts of the farmers in particular. The aroma, sweetness, body, and nuances of the land are all in harmony and seem to be converging into a single delicious wine.
