According to the official website, swallows nest in the brewery and the label was inspired by swallows, a symbol of good luck.
The aroma is moderate, with freshness, umami, and acidity. The aftertaste is dry and refreshing.
Surprised that sake can be made without additive yeast.
Slightly acidic, with a strong umami flavor.
There is a lingering aftertaste after drinking. Delicious.
On the occasion of a long time business trip to Hiroshima, I had a bottle of Hiroshima's local sake Ryusei at room temperature.
It has just the right amount of dryness with umami flavor. It is easy to drink, and you can't help but drink it while eating the entrée.
Sake sent by my father as a gift from Nagano.
It comes in a set with a blue glass.
The taste is quite dry and refreshing. It has a slight umami taste. It is easy to drink, and you don't get tired of drinking it.
The bottle is beautiful and I want to keep it after drinking.
Good evening Pon-chan, thank you for your comment. Both the bottle and the glass are great colors ✨ My father is also a sake lover, and it has become a tradition to send him sake when we both travel somewhere 😊.
We compared Fukui's Hakuryu at Asano Sake Brewery in Kobe.
The president of Yoshida Sake Brewery, which brews Hakuryu, was also there, and we enjoyed listening to him talk about various topics.

Dry, quite acidic, but not too strong.
It is made from white malted rice used for shochu and is characterized by citric acidity, and is good with oysters and shellfish.
Test brewing preparation No. 15
It has a strong umami taste, but the aftertaste is clean with some acidity.
Hakuryu Junmai Polished 90%
The umami of the rice and the acidity are gradually. Goes well with the pickled firefly squid we ordered. It was also delicious warmed up with a good balance of umami and acidity.
At Jintaro in Sannomiya, Kobe. They have a variety of kenbishi sake.
Mizuho's Kuromatsu Kembishi has an aroma like that of Shaoxing sake.
It is quite umami, acidic, and matured, but also mellow.
During a trip to Fukuoka, I asked for a sake that I had never tried before. The sake had a delicious flavor of rice, with a slight acidity and a refreshing taste. Delicious.
It is quite dry but also has umami. It also has a bit of acidity and is refreshingly crisp.
Sake from the San'in region has a strong image of being solid and robust, but this sake betrays that image in a good way.
Quite a refreshing taste. It has a subtle umami flavor. It is easy to drink and does not interfere with the taste of food, so it is good as a food wine.
