Hop BroAt ALLWRIGHT-sakeplace- in Asakusa, Konohana Brewing's Strawberry Chocolate Doburoku has just gone on sale. The one that was previewed first at the Oden Jizake Fest is finally available to drink and buy in the shop too.
MugiWhat! A new product you can drink and buy is way too strong, isn't it? And the name already sounds like dessert, so my brain can't tell whether this is alcohol or a sweet!
Hop BroWhat's inside is interesting too: strawberry puree and cacao nibs are blended into doburoku. It's designed so the sweet-tart flavor and toasty aroma are held together by the richness of the cloudy sake.
MugiDoburoku, what's that? Cloudy alcohol looks like a milkshake, but it's definitely still alcohol, right?
Hop BroExactly. It's a type that keeps some of the rice texture and the softness from fermentation, and this one layers fruit and cacao on top of that. So even though it has a dessert-like flavor, the finish is surprisingly clean, which is the key point.
MugiWow! That sweet and toasty combination sounds like the kind of thing that makes you say, "one more sip" the moment you taste it. Strawberry and chocolate is basically cheating level good!
Hop BroWhat's more, this sake is delicious both chilled and warmed, which is the clever part. The expression changes with the temperature, so it's fun to start chilled and then compare it after warming it a little.
MugiWait, you can warm it up!? A drink with flexible ways to enjoy it feels pretty advanced to me, but it actually has a lot of freedom!
Hop BroThe venue, ALLWRIGHT-sakeplace-, is a bar attached to Konohana Brewing, so the close distance to the brewery is another attraction. Because the maker's intent comes through directly in the glass, you can really see how the fruit and other ingredients are being used.
MugiI see, so it's not just about drinking it, but also about feeling like you can see the maker's face behind it. If I stopped by during an Asakusa walk, I might suddenly become a beer explorer!
Hop BroExactly. It's not just available by the glass inside the shop, but also through in-store purchase and online sales, so if you like it, being able to take it home right away is another plus.
MugiThen today, I want to have a drink in Asakusa and also secure some for home! Just reading about this strawberry-and-cacao doburoku is making my throat ring out!
