It is said to be an aged sake that has been laid down for more than a year.
When drunk at the temperature out of the refrigerator, it is a bit sharp, but when slightly warmed up to lukewarm, the sharpness is removed and the rounded flavor spreads out.
This is my first time to buy Hanamup.
I found it in a store fridge a few months ago and bought it without thinking.
The moment I poured it into a glass, it had a fruity aroma, and when I put it in my mouth, it exploded with sweetness. It is now a juice.
Is this alcohol? I was surprised to see the spreading flavor and the gradual feeling of alcohol in my mouth.
I can see why it is so popular.
The aroma is mildly citrusy, and the taste is smooth with no spikes at all. The balance of sweetness, umami, and acidity is exquisite with little stimulation from the alcohol.
It has been several months since I got it, and I have not had a chance to drink it. I opened the bottle on a whim.
The aroma is mild and unobtrusive, and the mouthfeel is fresh, fruity, and moderately effervescent. It's a delicious wine that's easy to see why it's so popular.
This sake was sold by weight at a liquor store a while ago and is said to be the backbone of Hayaseura's summer lineup.
It has a strong acidity and umami, but the aftertaste is crisp and delicious. It was great when heated.
The aroma is subdued, and when the cork is opened, the schwizzle rises and the tension rises. There is a subtle sweetness and flavor in the carbonation. It is delicious.
This is a rice wine with a small number of bottles made from Kojo-nishiki, which is said to be a fantastic sake rice.
It has a perfect balance of subtle sweetness and a hint of sourness. Delicious 😋.
At the snow-cold level out of the fridge, it has a clear, tasteless, and delicious acidity.
When lukewarm, it has more umami and a hint of sweetness.
It can be enjoyed at different temperatures.
Kiyamasa Shuzo in Mie, where Jikin is brewed.
Purchased to compare with Shichibon-Yari from a good friend of the brewer recommended by a nearby liquor store.
The aroma is lightly citrusy and refreshing, with a good balance of acidity, umami, and sweetness that spreads to the palate as soon as it enters the mouth. The aftertaste is sharp and easy to drink. It goes well with everything.
