It is dark. Dark, sweet, and punchy 😵. But it's also very tasty. I think it is the type that you face it head on and drink it slowly. It's been a while since I've had an alcohol headache lol. I looked at it closely and it's 19 degrees... I see what you mean😅.

720ml ¥1,100 It's been a long time since I've had arabashiri 😅. First the supernatant 🎵They are mellow and delicious with a nice sharpness! And the stirred umami is great 😁. It's a very good drink for a very strong one with a very strong food: ☝️ Must drink again next year😃!

Kikuhime, which is not usually drunk very often. This also has a high price on the sticker on the back. Then let's drink some! When I drank Kikuhime with Betsan a while ago, we had it hot. But it's hard to drink hot sake here. Let's drink it cold as it is 🍶. As expected The color wasn't yellow, but I'm not a fan of this kind. I would have preferred it heated. Dumplings 🥟 and Lamb Tataki 🐑. Let's drink more sake 🍶! my knowledge of sake Rice used: "Yamadanishiki" from Yoshikawa-cho, Miki City, Hyogo Prefecture, special A district Polishing 55 Specified name sake, etc. Ginjo/nama-shu Degree of alcohol content 17

Kikuhime is a sake brewery in Hakusan City, Ishikawa. The color is pale because the brewery's policy is not to filter it much. It is said to have laid the foundation for the Yamahai boom, and the taste is rich with a strong acidity. It is too cold in the Hanakairo, so we serve it hot. The richness of the sake expands with warming, and it warms the body and soul. The third picture shows cherry blossoms in Ueno Park that were in full bloom last weekend. ⚫︎Raw material rice: Yamadanishiki ⚫︎Polishing ratio: 70 ⚫︎ Alcohol content: 16

Purchased at a liquor store in Kasuga City Drink cold Clear and colorless Mellow and strong aroma Mellow, rich and delicious in the mouth. Afterward, it has a dry and frizzy taste. Much less peculiar and easier to drink than other Kikuhime brand sakes. Delicious on its own without accompaniments.

The Chrysanthemum Princess is an explosion 🤯. This is the kind of sake my body was looking for! Rich seme smell! The rich sweetness! The acidity of Yamahai! Kikuhime is Yamahai! Yamahai is Kikuhime! Rich bitterness! Despite this, the clear liquid causes a huge explosion of umami on the tongue! Alcohol explodes! Post classic! Have you been drunk lately? Sake you can drink until you get crushed! (Alcohol in moderation!)

Combined with its weight and color, it gives an aristocratic feeling when drunk in a wine glass.
