Opening the cap is super dangerous ⚠️
You have to open the cap so many times that you have to slurp it open 💥 so much foam 🫧.
Well, the expression "sake" like champagne fits well.
Naturally, it's schwashy and delicious😋.

Nigori sake from Kawanakajima is a nigori sake from Kawanakajima that you will want to drink at least once a year.
It is basically available at Kinokuniya, located in the station premises just inside the southeast ticket gate of JR Shinjuku Station.
Unlike the fruity and flowing image of Genmai, Kawanakajima's nigori sake is a hard-core style, dark, tasty, dry, and crisp, which is the original basic form of this brewery.
This brewery is basically a hard-core brewer.
Genshu Mai's gorgeous and flowing style is a different story.
Bottom line, I would definitely like to drink it at least once a year in the future: ❗️
The usual Kawanakajima nigori
After a glass of cold sake, I had a glass of hot sake.
The sweetness of the rice increased, and this is good!
Two gou of sake went very fast!

If it were true, I would have been in Koshien today.
I had the advantage of one win, and if we won three games in a row, we would win the championship on Friday, so I applied for Friday's ticket.
I was laughed at when I said that in my department 😢.
I won!
But I missed the lottery 😭 Many people in my fan club missed the lottery, so I wondered who on earth won.
I'd like to say congratulations 🎊, but I've been home late at night this week, including drinking sessions, so I couldn't watch even a minute of the live broadcast. I couldn't even see Morishita's homerun 😭I miss teleworking...
Anyway, let's have a toast. I don't have any 🐯 related drinks, so I'll have a bubbly 🫧 drink. I was dying to drink it but it took a long time to open the bottle and once it was safely opened, I drank it all in no time 😆.
Hello ichiro18 😀.
Thank you very much. I'm glad to hear that it's a department and there are a lot of antagonists (because of those who jump into the river)! Yes, it was muuuch more delicious than usual by a factor of 50.
Comparison of Kawanakajima
As it says "dry", this one is spicier than the other one.
I was quite full from the many dishes served that day 🈵.
I think it's time to end the meal.
Both are made with 59% polished rice.

Next, let's compare the Kawanakajima!

I have had this every year since 2023 and 2024!
It is a standard sake to enjoy its acidity and spiciness!

I heard that Kawanakajima is in trouble this year.
I'm Fuwarin, who drank it last year and liked it a lot,
This year, too, I'm having a lot of fizz.
Aroma and attack are a little nutty. The sweetness is a bit weak, and the bitterness comes to the forefront. I like that the bitterness is mild because of the strong fizz (childish tongue).
I was surprised to find that it really smells like yogurt!
The taste is not yogurt at all, which makes me wonder about sake.
The sake is austere and robust.
The thick flavor of special junmai sake lingers in the mouth with a sharp taste.
Perfectly matched with the stewed fish
I had a bottle of Kawanakajima nigori (sparkling nigori sake) that I had previously enjoyed, so I picked up a bottle to see what the regular Kawanakajima was like 😊.
Although it does not have a pronounced fruity taste, it is a soft and easy-drinking sake.
It is a soft and easy to drink sake.
This is the second bottle opened this evening and I chose this one 💁.
Kawanakajima Dry Special Junmai 2025BY✨
I'm pairing it with the Akinatai fish sashimi for dinner.
The aroma is a mild rice aroma, which will not interfere with the meal. The attack on the palate is typical Kawanakajima, sweet and delicious, then dry, crisp and clear, with a relaxing taste 👍.
Although it is dry, it is very easy to drink and quite smooth and delicious 😋😋😋😋😋.
★★★★★
Aroma of yogurt. Mild and smooth.
Strong acidity. Strong rice flavor and gentle sweetness.
When heated, it has a twang, but the sweetness increases, making it a sweet sake for adults.
