Then again, orange.
The inside of your refrigerator is turning autumn colors.
I drank some Toukai by Kangiku, and it was amaamazing! ♡♡♡
Too stable, Kangiku-san! 🫶
Good evening, Yurinan!
It's been a while since you posted here ☺️, but it seems you enjoyed the sake and I was happy to see that you drank my guess, Kangiku 🥰.
Kangiku is a stable taste no matter which one you drink. ❣️
Hi, HinaHanaMama! ♡♡
I took a proper picture of the sake I drank, but I failed to post it! 🫨
Kangiku really tastes good no matter which one you drink, and you have the trust to know it's good even if you don't drink it! ♡♡
The juicy fruitiness is matched by a refreshing acidity that is delicious😋.
It is a sake to be drunk slowly and chilled at the end of summer.
Accompanied by grilled sweetfish
Kangiku Junmai Daiginjo Kenaiyama Orikigarami Unfiltered Nama-shu
Rating 4.4-4.5
Rice: Kenaiyama, Polishing ratio: 50%, Alcohol content: 15%.
The core of the taste is the refreshing effervescence unique to nama-shu, the sweetness that melts away, and the beauty of the lingering aftertaste.
The sweet nigoromi gives it an elegant, sugary dessert-like taste. It is balanced with some acidity.
Occasional Kenaiyama 50 -Chronicle- Bespoke Special Limited Edition
(Junmai Daiginjyo, Oorigarami, Unfiltered Nama-shu)
Rice: 100% Tokushima Kenaiyama, Polishing ratio 50%, Alc. 15%.
From the limited series "Occasional" brewed only once a year by Kangiku Meikyu,
This is the one we were aiming for... 🔥.
The aroma is like fresh pear.
The mouthfeel is stimulating, with sweetness and fresh gas.
The mid-palate is softly spreading with umami and bitterness,
The aftertaste is a grefleur-like acidity and bitterness that quickly kills you...too good ✨.
Amazing. This is too good. This is a swamp.
This is a versatile food wine that goes well with both Japanese and Western food.
My wife also said, "It's not so sweet and it's delicious.
My favorite score: 9.5/10
Aroma: 2.0|Mouthfeel: 2.0|Medium: 2.0|Final taste: 2.0|Price: 1.5
→ The only drawback is that it costs over 2,000 yen...other than that, perfect score!
P.S.
I was wondering if I should separate this series from "Sono Kangiku" since it's a different series. I was wondering if it would be better to separate it from "So-no-Kangiku", but it seems you guys don't separate "OCEAN99" and "O㏄asional"... so I'm posting it as is...
This is mainly my impression after one week of opening the bottle.
About the aroma
Immediately after opening the bottle, the aroma was pear-like, but after one week, it had a rich, matured aroma of melon and cheese.
The ripeness of the aroma became dominant, and the peariness was not so much felt.
About the taste
The taste is mainly a rich, ripe, slightly sour taste like melon and cheese.
I think the acidity and ripeness are slightly more dominant than the sweetness.
However, the sweetness is not overpowered by the richness of the flavor.
The sweetness has increased from just after opening the bottle, and the lingering sweetness and aftertaste seem to have lengthened.
The aftertaste continues to be cheesy, and the bitterness remains at the end.
The overall taste is richer, and the carbonation is still there even a week after the bottle was opened.
It is much richer than the Orange Sea, which I drank at the same time.
I am not so sure about the taste and aroma, so if you are interested in this sake, please take a look at other people's postings.
Dark yet refreshingly fruity
Koji on the tongue and in the aftertaste
As usual, it does not feel like sake and makes you want to gobble it up.
You want to sip and savor it sip by sip.
It's been promoted to the Hall of Fame in Mr. Uruncho's opinion!
⊂I'm going to go to the Hall of Fame!
I got it on a previous side trip to the Holy Land!
It's been a year since I've had a Kangiku and a few months since I've had a Sake Mirai type, so by all means. I will enjoy it to my heart's content 🔥.
When I opened the bottle and poured it, the aroma was fruity and refreshing, with hints of apples, pears, grapes, and tropical fruits.
The palate is so clear that the words "pure and innocent" come to mind.
The floral and aromatic aroma is accompanied by a thick, almost sugary sweetness.
However, it is not too sweet, and the lightness of the gasiness and acidity, and the sharp cut-off of the dry astringency is even beautiful!
It is a true gem, no less than the Kenaiyama we had last year ✨.
This is one that I picked up after having a hard time deciding between other brands.
I was looking for this beauty...!
☀️
Sweetness with a sense of fruit 🍊.
And then a chain of umami 😚 flavors that builds up from there.
Bitterness at the end and Kangiku's royal road 👑.
I felt the bitterness was moderate.
It has a rich flavor and is worth drinking on its own 🤗.
Good evening, Hiro!
Thank you for the chrysanthemum 🙌
I haven't had this year's Orange Sea yet, but I'm sure it's delicious 👍.
I can't wait to try it 😅I have a jam packed fridge 🤣.
Good evening, hinahana mama 😃.
You look like a cold chrysanthemum maker 🤣.
It's definitely delicious this year too ❤️
