Kikutaka has a high acidity. Just by putting it in your mouth, the flavor explodes. Sashimi would lose out. Okay, let's change the sake.

At 30by, it is juicy and tasty on the palate with a sense of maturity. The one that you end up drinking too much of.

28BY Kikutaka It doesn't have that sense of maturity. When heated up, it is more than flavorful and juicy. The alcohol taste is bothersome. I could feel the flavor better with cold sake. Maybe I didn't let it sit long enough. It is a pity because I was looking forward to it.

<It's lukewarm. The flavor and sweetness is amazing. I drank Kikutaka-san the other day in cold (room temperature). I was finally able to revisit it, so I heated it up. I'll start with a hot one (about 60°C). The aroma is pleasantly alcoholic and pungent. When the temperature drops to about 40 degrees Celsius (lukewarm heated), the alcoholic sensation becomes milder, and the umami-sweetness begins to fill the air. I knew it had to be heated! The umami, bitterness, and sourness are a little more retracted in a heated sake than in a chilled one. That's why the sweetness comes out in front. When it's lukewarm, both the umami and sweetness open up, and it's amazing. It's amazing! This is a sake that should be heated. I had a lot of fun sipping it from the very warmed to the heated (30°C). If I were to compare it to Ghibli, I'd say it's Minami-san from "Mimi wo Sumemeba. He's the guy with the mustache, red bow tie and tambourine. He has his quirks, but he teaches us that there is fun to be had only when you are old. Satisfaction: ★★★★ I`ll post the full version on the blog, complete with character images and such. If you'd like, you can search for "korune sake" or come from the link in my profile section.

<It's a step ahead of "hinee sake. This brand will be discontinued in 2019. This sake is also 30BY and has been aged for 2 to 3 years. The aroma is definitely aged. The aroma is definitely already aged, and it's just a step away from being old. But that peculiarity is good. The mouthfeel is very smooth. There is a sweetness and umami in the center of the sourness that has been added by the aging process to the typical Yamahai taste. Then, the bitterness and the umami of the aging come from the back. This is a good combination of Yamahai, Honjozo, and aging. To be honest, it is not recommended for beginners. It is full of peculiarities. But it's a dangerous swamp to get into. I definitely want to drink this feeling warmed up. I heard it's hidden and doesn't get reduced easily, so I'd like to try it heated next time I come. If I were to use a Ghibli analogy, I'd say it's Pom Grandpa from Castle in the Sky, and it's aged just as well at 70 years old. He's kind to Pazoo, but he's definitely an old man with a lot of quirks when he gets back to town. Satisfaction: ★★★★ I'll post the full version on the blog, complete with character images and such.
