Product Description

Concept: "Experience the Blue of HIRAN." HIRAN Seiten ("Blue Sky") was inspired by the breathtaking view from the obae Lighthouse on Ikitsuki Island, part of Hirado City. Standing at the very edge of the island, the lighthouse offers a panoramic view of the endless horizon - where the deep blue of the sea meets the vast expanse of the sky. It is a landscape that perfectly symbolizes the natural beauty of Hirado, a town embraced by the ocean. Capturing that serene and vivid scenery in liquid form, Seiten was born as a sake that is light, clear, and refreshing. This season's Seiten opens with a gentle, sweet aroma reminiscent of ripe bananas. On the palate, fresh notes of green apple and a lively, pleasant acidity create a clean and invigorating impression. When served at room temperature, the soft sweetness of the rice unfolds beautifully; when chilled, the sake becomes crisp and exhilarating - the perfect companion for the warmer months. The rice used for Seiten is Asahi rice cultivated through natural farming, without pesticides or fertilizers. This year, Yamada Nishiki is also grown under the same method. These rices are naturally low in protein, resulting in a sake with fewer impurities - enhancing the pure, refreshing clarity that defines HIRAN Seiten.
