The last in Shiba Park, also the first sake
Koroh, dark and mellow
Apparently, this brewery is the originator of Kumamoto yeast, Kiyo-kai No. 9 (the 9 is hidden on the label).
A little soft?
If you say so, it might be mellow 🤔.
But I don't think it's as sweet as the sake degree (-6.8, apparently).
Tokyo Tower at night is always cool 😉.
As the name suggests, it is a refreshing sake, but that is not all,
It is a refreshing sake, as the name suggests, but it is not only that, but also has a bitter-sweet taste.
This is my first time to drink Kumamoto, but I think it is quite good!

This sake was given to me at a friend's house. I didn't have an image of Kumamoto as a sake brewery, but it is a delicious sake that is very easy to drink.
It is amakuchi, but it is smooth and has a nice sharpness. As the name "cool" suggests, it goes down your throat easily when drunk chilled. Most summer sake is light in flavor, in fact, many of them are lightly flavored, but this sake has a solid body. This is a long-established sake brewery that provided Nagareki No. 9 yeast. I feel that this brewery's most appealing feature is its thick core presence.

Junmai🍶So cool🎐.
Third glass at a coworkers' drinking party🍻.
Good umami and acidity. ☺️ Pleasant and comforting. It's not so much a refreshing summer sake, but more of a gentle taste. Since it's a Kumamoto sake, we paired it with a plate of horse sashimi 🐴 😋 This one was not from Kumamoto, but from Mongolia, but it was delicious 🎉.
