Trusted by Chiba Sake, Omachi, and Direct Bottling, you can't go wrong...!
The label is full of value... 7/10
The label is full of value, but I don't approve of the "sea" being read as "ka", as in the naming of children these days...
Ki ... 17/20
The hue is a light yellowish-brown, and the smell has the richness of Omachi. The combo of juicy Oumachi texture on the tongue and the numbing sensation from the acidity is just as I expected.
Sei... 17/20
The smooth sweetness is felt on the tongue, and the sublimated smell of Oumachi is already rising. The flavor has more bitterness, but it's all taken away by the Oumachi aroma.
Rolling... 14/20
The sublimation smell remains with a strong Alc burn, but the sweetness and umami do not persist.
Yui ... 14/20
The sublimation smell is only Alc, and although the burning and cagey feeling is good, the Oumachi feeling has become a thing of the past.
COSPA... 6/10
Purchased at 1,980 yen. satisfying, but needs a push.
First impression is important.

Alcohol content: 11
Akita Sake Komachi
Rice polishing ratio: 66
It is a nigori (cloudy) sake with a strong carbonation.
The taste is fruity and sweet, but the acidity is predominant, as is the case with No. 6 yeast.
The low alcohol content makes it perfect for a toast.
Camping in Katsuura ⛺️
Bought this from a nearby sake brewery: ❗️
I drink too much at campsites, I've been avoiding sake lol.
But this time I put it in my drink 🤭.
This one tastes like grapefruit 😋.
This year, too, a bottle as light as the "wind" arrived from a small brewery in Katsuura.
As the name suggests, it has a pleasantly clear and refreshing taste, like a summer breeze blowing through the air from the moment you hold the glass in your hand.
The aroma is soft and elegant, with a freshness like that of pears and white flowers.
The acidity, which is unique to the sake's "ikuhashimoto" brewing method, is at the core, and the balance between the gentle sweetness and sharpness is exquisite.
It also has a bubbly feeling that can only be achieved by direct bottling, and the gas that bursts with energy helps to reset your mind.
While it has the quiet and beautiful outline typical of Narumi, this year's finish gives it a greater sense of depth.
It is not simply a "summer sake," but a bottle that conveys the brewer's care and will.
