Velvety smooth and delicious! Sweet but not cloying. Really light and well balanced! Goes well with the spicy sushi I’m eating.

Nice and tangy, acidic. Delicious!

Drank in a sake flight I made while watching the last two episodes of Critical Role Campaign 1 with friends.
It was sweet but delicious! Less cloudy than I expected - nice and refreshing.

I found it sweet and apple-y 🍏

Drank cold with my Pathfinder group.
This sake was delicious! I think it would be a great intro sake for people curious to try. It was refreshing, dry, refined, floral, and tingly, very Ginjo. I will definitely drink this again!

Notes from Tippsy Sake:
This honjozo has a little more color than some sake because the brewers don’t carbon-filter it as much. This helps retain that tantalizing umami taste and a comfortable viscosity, something to give it some weight.
My thoughts:
Room Temperature - A full, unbridled flavor that sinks into the tongue and leaves some tingling behind as an aftertaste.
Warm - Shockingly smooth when warm. I used my new sake heater set for the first time and it was what I’m guessing is nurukan.

My last bottle of sake from my Sep 2023 trip to Japan. This was my favorite one from our Fushimi visit - time to remember that lovely trip!
At room temperature, the smell is strongly green apple 🍏 with notes of bready yeast. The taste is round and much more mature than I remember it. The flavor lingers on my tongue - sweet but not cloying, slightly tingly with the acid. Delicious! And goes great with the truffle pasta I had with it - umami to the max!

The last sake Eddy, Grace, Jesse, and I tried at Fushimi Sake Village.
Notes from the brewery:
“Fermented with high grade Yamadanishiki rice. The rice is polished for 72 hours, yielding a rice polish ratio of 35%.
We utilize an original yeast in Kizakura which gives the sake a floral aroma. It is fermented for more than 30 days at a temperature that is less than 10℃.
Enjoy the Hanashofu's smooth texture and beautiful aroma!”

Raw, unrefined sake taken directly from the tank, undiluted. Yum!

Now I know a bit more about Yamamoto Honke from Jim Stewart’s book - I would love to visit the brewery someday!

Glad I know what a Futsu is now! This was sharp and tasty.
