We opened a bottle of our favorite Kangiku, Orange Sea 🎉.
Orange Sea 🧡 was just released the other day.
Is this the fastest review? I know you think ⁉️
Sorry 🙇♀️
Actually... it's last year's orange sea 😅.
It doesn't mean anything, but I had been putting it to sleep for a long time.
But this year's is on sale and of course I'm buying it...
In the fridge, we had a successful generational change and last year's orange sea became the opening ceremony 😆.
This Orange Sea🧡 is the last of the 99 series for the year and is a rare fire-aged autumn sake for Kangiku: ☺️
We are thankful for this autumn sake, even in the midst of a heat wave 🥂.
The aroma is sweet, as is typical of Kangiku.
The second half has a slight astringent taste with a slight gaseous sensation.
It slowly fades away.
I see... 😮💨
That's what I thought 🧡.
It's a very calm autumn sake 🍂 Overall, it has a taste that makes you want to soak in it 🥹.
It's fire-aged, so it's not fresh and doesn't have the fruity or sourness of summer sake.
It is not a sweet and sour juicy Kangiku, but a sweet, moist and calm Kangiku 🧡.
Even autumn sake is not heavy, well-balanced and easy to drink🥰.
It's from last year but it's an orange sea🧡 Great work ❣️
I found myself drinking it all 🤣.
I'll be back later to review this year's Orange Sea 🙏.
Good morning, HinaHanaMama 😊.
I didn't know you came over here first! What a surprise, that's what I thought 🤣.
Since you're here, I'd love to hear a comparison between last year and this year 🥳.
Hi HinaHanaMama-san ^_^
As a fan of Kangiku, it's rare that I haven't opened it for a year 😁.
It would have been interesting to compare this year's bottle with the orange sea at the same time 😊.
Hi HinaHanaMama 😃
Was it a 1 year aged version 😁I wonder if it has further matured like an autumn sake ❓🤔.
I look forward to your review of this year's version of Orange Sea later on 😆.
Hi HinaHanaMama 😃You are early! I was wondering if it was last year's 😅.
Actually, I just got it the other day, so I have this year's waiting for me at home, and I will drink this year's with the taste of last year's as a reference, looking forward to it 😊.
Mimasuri at a tempura restaurant 💃.
I think I like Midori as much as I did last year.
I think it has the best balance 🌵.
Pink is also gorgeous and delicious🪷.
Surprisingly, blue was the sweetest 🫧.
Yellow is relatively light? I think the yellow is relatively light 🌻.
My husband and I don't have very discerning palates.
I think they are all tasty after all 😂😂!
That's what I thought 😂😂.
I'm longing for Yuuzan Kaihara.
I have wanted to try this Kangiku for a long time. It has a nice fizziness and a fresh flavor that lingers gradually. I would like to try other series of Kangiku.
I like this series so much I bought it again this year.
There is enough acidity that the cap flew off when I opened it.
There is a fruity sweetness.
It is dense and slightly sticky on the palate.
The wine was clear right after it was uncorked, but as it was drunk, it became slightly cloudy.

Gorgeous aroma. Sweetness and acidity with a slight effervescence. It has a strong assertiveness, but also goes well with food.
This was the first time I drank sake made from So no Mai.
The foaming sensation was so great that the lid flew off when the bottle was opened lol.
A little bitterness is emphasized, well balanced and suitable for a mid-meal drink.
★★★★
Purchased from Iwai Kotobuki Shoten in Akashi City, Hyogo Prefecture.
I was able to get it this year.
I drank too much yesterday at Sake Bar Wave in Akashi City and tried to hold back today...but I couldn't 💦.
I couldn't resist and opened the bottle... and the lid blew off💦.
The aroma is faintly fruity, and the fruitiness reminds me of pineapple, which spreads out on the palate at once. Fresh and juicy. I knew it, Kangiku-san is delicious no matter what you drink👍👍
Chrysanthemum in cold chrysanthemum after a long time
Lightly cloudy with a slight weak smell
It is easy to drink when you drink it smoothly.
When you taste it, you will feel a strong tingling sensation on your tongue and a light spiciness that lingers in your throat
and a light spiciness that lingers in the throat after swallowing.
The aroma that passes through the nose is like a light cloudiness.
I think it goes well with spicy snacks.
Sohno-Kangiku's Ocean 99 series.
Finally, the fall series.
From the first bite, it is suddenly delicious. Sweet and juicy. Very tasty 😋.
