Kikusuiふなぐち 菊水 一番しぼり新米新酒

The quality of the sake is firm and thick. I would say it has the freshness of new sake, but I could not distinguish it from the regular Funakuchi I drank before. I should have compared the two.

The white can was usually a nice, refreshing sake, so I went back to the standard Funaguchi Kikusui can. Released in November 1972, it is older than I am. It is a masterpiece of sealing a mellow, fresh, delicious sake in an aluminum can, a product that will go down in the history of sake. More than 300 million bottles have been sold. It is also called the strongest sake in convenience stores. Tonight I got it at a 7-Eleven after work. I tasted it again, and it is a masterpiece that combines freshness and richness. I don't think it's a food sake, or a perfect accompaniment, Tonight's (late at night, 😅) snacks were my favorite menu items, such as simmered pork cutlet, grated salmon roe, and fried horse mackerel, so the full-bodied Funaguchi Kikusui can was a good choice. Thank you for the food!

Thank you, ma-ki-😊. For what it's worth, I often choose Niigata sake for my milestone sake. Glenfiddich - it's delicious 🥃. I'm new to whisky and I'm learning by drinking the standard whisky at home first.

Thank you, bouken 😊. Chocolate goes well with whiskey🥃. It is a different world from the compatibility of sake snacks There are many discoveries. White cans do not have the same impact as Funaguchi, but they are preferable.

Thank you Duke 😊. I actually managed to prepare all the drinks and snacks myself when I got home 😅. Thanks to my wife.

Thank you @Mizuhashi😊. What a great idea, Kikusui, I'm glad you liked it. It doesn't have an impact, but I would say that it is good as a normal, evening sake. In a sense, I felt that it was a good example of Niigata's sake.

Thank you very much, kozo😊. I'm afraid I'm a hermit😅. My posting pace has slowed down somewhat, but I am thankful that I have sake in my daily life and that I like and enjoy it without getting bored 🍶.

Thank you, Pon 😊. I thought it was a pretty good choice, as each of the snacks and drinks matched each other. Cheese and tomatoes are somehow good snacks to have in the fridge.

I also gratefully accepted the message from Mr. Novy. I see that you are a white can user. This is the first time for me to try it, and I thought it was a good product, different from the impact of FUNAGUCHI, as expected of Kikusui.

Thank you, Director T.KISO 😊. It's going by so fast, 😅 Speaking of which, I have a suspicion that I have been slacking off in my club activities (Hirotogawa River) lately, I will revive my activity.

Sweet and spicy sake as per the radar chart on the can. + home-aged🍶. Growing in the fridge (I tend to forget when to drink it while it's in the fridge), manufactured in September 2023. It has been a long time since I've had it, even though it's a regular sake. It has a sweet ginjo aroma on the nose. It has a sweet and spicy flavor with a hint of maturity and aroma. 😋😋😋😋 It has been left in the fridge for a long time, so it is not old, but matured. My dad brought it to me when he visited 🍶.

What a first for me, Kikusui Funaguchi! I have always been curious about it. The price was high for me when I didn't drink sake, and when I started drinking sake, it wasn't in my price range. Before thinking about it, I decided to give it a try! When I opened the lid, I was astonished by the smell of nama-zake, which I often smell! When you drink it, you will be astonished by the taste of proper nama-shu (not cheap sake)! (It must be kumquat). After a while after opening the bottle, the bitterness of the high ales are noticeable, but it's not bad!

As a nutritional supplement when cooking for yourself I was intimidated by the "19% alcohol by volume" label, but when well chilled, the refreshing aroma and sweet flavor made it easy to drink and I felt it was a skillfully brewed honjozo sake. Served with the smell of simmering tomato stew with red kidney beans and minced meat

Impulse buy🍶. Clear oaky and fruity aroma, powerful oaky feeling and mellowness from the first impression on the palate and finally dry and lingering feeling. It is fresh and full of flavor. It has a good mouthfeel, so be careful.

The aroma is subdued yet gorgeous. The mouthfeel is sweet with a slight aftertaste, but soon after, there is a pungent alcohol taste and a slight acidity. The aftertaste is slightly pungent, but it does not linger and is light. Slightly sweet Alcohol 15%. Sake level: Normal Low acidity Star ⭐️⭐️⭐️

It gives the impression of having a sweet aroma. It is a sake-like sake that goes well with Japanese food. It was served with a homemade gratin dish and grilled chicken thigh with honey soy sauce.
