Comments・・・ Thanks for the gift.
Impression・・ Thank you very much for the gift. It is a super matured sake from the 11th year of Heisei. I prefer it heated to human skin rather than cold.
Sweet and sour aroma like a lactobacillus drink. The alcohol content is 19 degrees Celsius! But it has a strong flavor, so it is surprisingly well-balanced and easy to drink. It is delicious.
It is not light, but it has a gentle sweetness and rice flavor, and is not difficult to drink at all. I think I will get addicted to it. It is also the best in terms of cost.
Today's sake is from Ishikawa's Kikuhime.
It is different from the Yamahai Junmai I had a while ago.
The taste was clean and sharp.
However, I didn't realize that you have to pay for a Kikuhime pamphlet...amazing.
It goes well with Japanese food and you can drink it all the time.
It was a treat.
The third glass was Kikuhime nigori.
Easy to drink like makgeolli with the sweet and delicious taste of rice 🍶.
It is recommended for beginners and is very stable!
Today is nori nabe, so I will have Kikuhime "Sakiichiru" at room temperature.
I took a sip with an appetizer while waiting for the nabe.
It has a nice color that seems to be loaded with umami, and when you sip it, the umami and sweetness of the Yamadanishiki rice spreads quickly in your mouth. The rich, mellow flavor that can only be conveyed at room temperature is a nice touch.
It is a perfect match with the broth of the finished nori nabe. Drinking sake with the broth from the nabe... "Yum! It is a sake like this.

日本酒の低温熟成に取り組む事業を掘り下げるため、前回は、千葉県千葉市の酒販店「IMADEYA」による「IMADEYA AGING」についてインタビューをお届けしました。そうした新たな動きの傍ら、低温による熟成に先行して取り組んでいる日本酒蔵も少なくありません。その中でも、1995年から長期低温熟成酒を商品化し、巨大な低温熟成庫を用意して、10万本余りのお酒を貯蔵しているのが菊姫（石川県白山市）です。低温貯蔵と常温貯蔵の両輪で日本酒の熟成の魅力をアピールし続ける菊姫の現状を探るため、現地を訪れました。SAKE Street | プロも愛読の日本酒メディア
