Sake with a gentle snowman label that reminds us of winter.
As the pop-up label says, it is a medium-bodied sake.
It tastes like a traditional Japanese sake with a little bit of a quirkiness in the mouth.
When warmed to lukewarm, it mellows out and becomes easy to drink.
It became mellower and easier to drink, and the flavor expanded and became more delicious.
I prefer it this way 🍶.
I drank it with oden and it went great with it.
Then the second one 😊.
I got the Ikegame Candy Blossam.
The rice polishing ratio is 50%, so I guess that means it is a Daiginjo spec. It's very exciting 🎵.
The aroma is mild and sweet.
As the name implies, the mouth is filled with a combination of sourness and sweetness.
It is delicious!
The apricot-like flavor remained towards the end 😊.
I would never have drunk it if I hadn't received it as a souvenir, but it was delicious! I still need more training lol.
My boss at work gave me a set of two small bottles as a gift from his trip to Fukuoka 😊.
This is the first time I've had this brewery 🎵
I got a bottle of Ikegame Junmai Sake.
The aroma is mild.
When you put it in your mouth, you will feel a hint of aroma like a young melon, and the slight umami and sweetness will spread on your palate, and it will finish nicely.
It is delicious!
It is slightly dry and has a clear taste, perfect for a mid-meal drink ❗
Today's entrée of yellowtail radish and boiled snow crab are both a perfect match, and we drank it all immediately ✌.
Of course, I'll drink it again next time!
We compared drinks at Sumiyoshi and went to Hankyu's sake corner before returning to the hotel.
I saw a sake from Ikegame that I'd never seen before, and the name definitely says it all 😍I took you there!
I was going to bring it home with me but... I opened it 🤣.
This is a gorgeous sweet sake 🥰.
It's a bit like cotton candy?
But the sweetness isn't too heavy, so it was gone in a sandesh 😋.
I'll buy some as souvenirs 😁.
The owner of the bar offered me this sake, saying that it is brewed with black malted rice from shochu (Japanese liquor) and is quite rich. I drank it thinking it would be a heavy sake, but it had a gentle sweetness that was not light but smooth.
I enjoyed the elegance and smoothness of daiginjo sake.
Gorgeous aroma. The mouthfeel is smooth, and the taste is green apple-like. Usually Ikegame gives the impression of being sharp and dry, but this was a completely different flavor. It was my favorite flavor.
First small bottle of the trip (≧▽≦)

Thanks for your comment, Jay & Nobby 😊.
My birthday was a while ago, but I took care of my sake and drank it over several days❣Not having to drink it all at once is one of the best things about sake🍶 😺.
