Having voted number 2 by SAKETIME in 2019, some says Hanaabi is the cheaper version of Juyondai 十四代 due to its fruity aroma. Once the bottle is opened, the smell of sweet tropical fruits will fill the air. Due to its small production, Hanaabi is often very limited in supply and hard to come by.
 
This sake has a thicker and deeper flavor due to aging for 11 months in ice cold storage. It is smooth and has a mild texture on the tongue. Coupled with a gentle acidity and a defined sweetness.
