For a Kaygetsu sake, it has a strong acidity and sweetness, and at the same time bitterness, so it is not a mildly umami sake, but a summer sake with a strong drinking experience.
It is not so much dry as super dry.
This is surprising for a Kaygetsu sake. Of course it is delicious.
This, this, this!
This is what I like!
This is what I like!
Strong sourness, refreshing bitterness, and finally sweetness.
LOVE yeast!
My sister came to stay and we had a sake party ✨.
I got a nice smile - my sister seems to like it! She's not blinking, is she?"
Even though it's super dry, it's still fruity and delicious ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡!
Anyway! The food at this restaurant was insanely delicious and piercing.
They work very hard...
The photo shows dashi-tomato and ice fish (the best!).
Hi Jay 😃
As I said, the point of a restaurant with good food is very high! If you are ever in Yokohama, please do not hesitate to visit. I had a feeling that I was in for a treat when I first saw the octopus sashimi that came out of the tsukidashi (appetizer) ♡.
After the three stars, I opened a bottle of Kaygetsu nigori for a little more light drinking.
I don't have to tell you how delicious and juicy it was 😍.
It was mid-June and I thought I would get through the rainy season in a good mood👍.
Sake made by Tosa Sake Brewery in Kochi Prefecture, using Kochi sake rice Gin-no-Yume. It has a nice tropical aroma and tastes fruity, medium dry, and very delicious. I liked the taste.
We received a large amount of bonito tataki from Kochi as part of our hometown tax payment, so we bought this sake from the same Kochi area ✨.
I wasn't sure whether to choose CEL24 or Nigori, but the word "nigori" attracted me to this one ✨.
The top aroma is melon and pear.
The overt aroma is like tropical fruits such as pineapple.
The sweetness and umami are strong, the acidity is medium, and there is almost no gasiness.
The taste is short and lingering, with a slight to medium bitterness at the end 🍶.
It was a good match for the shrimp mayo I made for dinner, but not for the bonito tataki, which is the key 😅.
However, the quality of the sake as a standalone is high, and it was a clear and beautiful fruity sake that can be used as both an aperitif and a mid-dinner drink, thanks for the meal 😊.
My favorite nigori!
Is this your first time with Kaygetsu?
First of all, the top clearness. No complaints, I like it!
Mix it up and gulp it down! Delicious!
Kaygetsu has an image of delicious sweetness, but I thought it wasn't that sweet.
I like nigori, it's delicious, and it's a perfect score!
