飛鸞 彩道 SAIDO 秋天限定酒

【HIRAN SAIDO · Autumn Limited Release】

HIRAN SAIDO is an early-autumn limited release from Mori Shuzo in Hirado, Nagasaki. Inspired by the changing colours of the Hirado sunset, from bright light to deeper evening tones, it is brewed with Yamada Nishiki for koji rice and Omachi for kake rice. Made using the kimoto method and pasteurized once, it is bottled at 14% ABV. Its palate unfolds in sequence: gentle sweetness, lively acidity and a fine, delicate grip.

The nose carries Muscat grape aromatics, delicate natural spritz, HIRAN’s signature freshness of acidity, alongside white peach and a soft lactic note. Smooth and supple on the palate, it opens with white-peach and melon-like sweetness. Bright lactic and citrus-led acidity lifts the mid-palate, while Omachi’s rice umami gradually opens up, giving depth and texture between sweetness and acidity. The finish brings fine astringency, gentle grape-skin notes, minerality and rice character, closing fresh and clean.
