夢茶苦茶也First time in Kura.
But I bought it if it is Saga.
Although it is labeled "old", it seems to be new.
It has a little bit of a sour taste and a bitter flavor.
It is delicious!
I will buy it again when I find it.

グラHappy New Year! We look forward to working with you again this year.
The New Year has begun with a terrible earthquake. We are praying for the earliest possible recovery of the afflicted people.
Mr. Tsuyodai has entrusted me with a major task. There are only 4 stores in Japan that sell this sake. Tsuyodai-san told us where to buy it.
There is a little lees. It has a tangy and grepy taste, a little bitterness, and a classic sake feel, yet it is easy to drink. A good sake to start the year with.

I look forward to working with you this year 🤲.
I don't know why I've never had a chance to get to know Ko-Imari, but I'll try to drink it this year: ❗️
But before that, let's have an off-line meeting soon 😁.

アラジンThanks for your support this year, GRA 🙇.
Rare to be limited to 4 stores 😳.
I enjoy the many variations of Ko-Imari-mae etiquettes, and the Mizuhiki design on this one is also very festive, just like the first sunrise of the New Year 😄.

ジークじこんHappy New Year, Mr. Gura 🎍.

グラAladdin-san Happy New Year! I look forward to working with you again this year. I always look forward to your reviews. I was able to drink a rare sake at the beginning of the year. Ko-Imari-mae is the sake that got me hooked. All of them are well balanced.

ゆーへーIt has a schwarziness, a grapefruit-like flavor, and a savory nutty aroma that flows smoothly.
It is a R2BY old sake from Ko-Imari 🍶.
I lied, I bought it thinking it was actually R5BY 💧.
When I went to Takamura Coffee with Mr. Bouken for a long time, we were talking about the old Imari that was released in early spring and how they still have some left 💦.
The preservation condition was fine, so it wasn't a bad bottle, but I would have liked to drink a fresh one if possible.
Be careful when you go to Takamura 👀.

アラジンGood evening, Yoohee 😃.
Takamura Wine & Coffee Roastery also has a lot of sake. Ko-Imari-mae, Ki, Banshu Ikken, Niida Sanshu, etc. have a good selection and I would like to use them in the future.
Be careful about the date of manufacture. ⚠️
Japanese>English
ゆーへーGood evening, Aladdin. ⭐︎
It's a surprisingly good spot, and there are often still some left even if the other places are sold out 💡.
I can have a coffee and take a break, so I make good use of it ✨.
Japanese>English
boukenGood evening, Mr. Yoohee 😃.
It was still hot season 😁.
The liquor store I went to yesterday in Sakaigashi also had Ko-Imari, but it was mainly wine and the date needed to be confirmed 😅.
Japanese>English
ゆーへーbouken Hello ☀︎
Yes, I was sweating a lot when I walked 💦.
Wine is the main thing, same as Takamura's 💡.
I guess it doesn't sell well in Kansai 💧.
KTK2002Tranquillo ❗️ Don't be unreasonable ‼️
That's a great quote from Naito of Shinichi 😄.
The aroma when just opened is like grape🍇.
The taste is also grape-like. The aftertaste has a hint of rice flavor and a slight aroma that goes into the nose, but there is also a slight medicinal smell.
As the temperature rises, the aroma subsides and the flavor is sweet and umami, which is nice.
After about 3 days, the medicinal smell is almost gone and the umami is the main taste.
It is like a Tranquillo even after it is put out of the fridge, and even after it is opened 😁.
dorankdoragonTranquillo! Don't be in a hurry!
The familiar? Old Imari Tranquillo!
The brewer who loves professional wrestling gave it this name, right?
Sweet and fruity aroma 🍇.
Slightly acidic impression ⚡.
Wine-like mouthfeel and taste 😄.
グラKo-Imari The previous new work, Inicio. It means "start" or "beginning" in Spanish.
It has a fresh taste with a slight gassy feeling. It has a light taste like pear. It is easy to drink. It is not only gorgeous but also tasty.
ShinkazuFruity and full of flavor
High quality as usual!
I haven't had this in a while, but it's so good!
I vividly remember how happy I was to be served this when I was on a business trip to Fukuoka a long time ago!
I think it's hard to find this balance of sake-like and fruity!
If you think you can go for a light fruity sake, I would like you to go for this next. It will be a bridge to the sake world.
