This is a collaboration product of the movie "Blood of a lone wolf LEVEL2", which is being released from August 20 and is set in my hometown Kure and Hiroshima. I haven't seen the movie yet, but I'm sure it will be filled with the Kure dialect of "odoriya-sudoriya" and nostalgic scenes and places of Kure. I want to see it! Sake rice: Hiroshima Prefecture Rice polishing ratio: 50 ALC: 17.5 degrees Gorgeous aroma. Slight amber color. Contrary to the image in the movie, it has a soft mouthfeel. The sweetness comes first, followed by a well-balanced acidity that stimulates the throat the moment you swallow.

The aroma is light. It has a thick mouthfeel and a pleasant sweetness. It has a solid rice taste and an alcoholic sensation that is hard to believe at 15 degrees. This may be good on the rocks. This time, I poured it over frozen passion fruit. The sweet and sour taste of the passionfruit and the nigorizake give it a nice flavor, making it a bit like a frozen cocktail. Sake rice: Hidahomare Rice polishing ratio: 68 ALC: 15 degrees Mr. B, a big musician, is going to order it. I wonder if we can disclose such a thing on our website.

It has a gorgeous aroma. Very faint amber color. The mouthfeel is soft and has a thick feeling. It is fruity, but the throat is crisp and clean. Sake rice: KODAWARI Rice polishing ratio:50%(Koji rice) 50%(Kake rice) Malted Rice type : Higuchi-hikari ALC : 17 degrees In the early Showa era, "Tajima-Kogyo" was improved by selecting pure strains of the excellent sake rice "Kogyo" in Hyogo prefecture. It is a Junmai Daiginjo brewed in the extremely cold brewery in Hida, using only the revived rice grown in Taka-cho under contract. In order to keep the sake as free of miscellaneous flavors as possible, the unrefined must is placed in a sake bag and hung from the ceiling, with no pressure applied, and only the fine parts that drip naturally are collected. The Romero Special is a wrestling technique known as the "suspended ceiling hold". It was named after the technique of hanging the opponent's body as if he were lying down and leaving a strong impression, which is very similar to the technique of "Fukurozuri" (hanging in a bag) used to make sake for the sake competition.

Polishing the rice is an important process in sake brewing. This time, I decided to open two bottles of sake at the same time and compare them, using the same brewing method except for the rice polishing. And the general "spherical rice polishing". The aroma is sweet and fruity. It has a very faint Yamabuki color. It is lighter in color than the original milled rice. It is refreshing and has a round taste. Sake rice: Hiroshima Hatan, Chusei Shin Senbon Rice polishing ratio: 75 ALC: 15 degrees

Polishing the rice is an important process in sake brewing. This time, I'm going to open two bottles at the same time and compare two different kinds of sake made the same way, except for the rice polishing method. The first step is "Genkei Polishing". This method of milling polishes the outside of the rice all the way down to the same shape as the original rice. This method efficiently reduces protein and polishes the rice in a well-balanced manner. This original rice milling machine was developed by Satake, a company in Hiroshima Prefecture. It is great to know that there are people who support sake brewing in this way, not just sake breweries. Sweet aroma. A very faint yama-buki color. Despite the aroma, it is not very sweet and refreshing. You can taste the rice slowly, and the moment it disappears, it has a clean bitter taste. It has a stronger flavor than the spherical type. Sake rice: Hiroshima Hatan, Nakao Shin Senbon Rice polishing ratio: 75 ALC: 15 degrees
