Second one: ☝️
Next up is Mr. Kudokidoki 😊.
It's 29% polished rice 😳
The sake is soft, yet has a strong umami flavor and a fruity, gorgeous aroma... 😳.
This is... delicious😍.
At a Christmas sake party at my usual bar.
Dry and crisp.
Gorgeous and clean, goes well with any dishes.
The usual ukiyoe lady with a cake and Santa Claus was cute.
We had a rice cake with rice marinated in rice bran and cream risotto with sauteed albacore for dessert.
The steam rising from the chimney, the feel of steaming rice, and the aroma of koji are all part of the process of carefully reconfirming each and every step of the brewing process.
We will devote ourselves to brewing sake this season with the belief that we will continue to produce delicious sake.
The freshly squeezed sake is brewed to be aromatic, rich, and sweet. Since it is a pure sake, it should be stored at a low temperature and served as soon as possible.
Ingredients: rice, rice koji
Rice polishing ratio: 50
Rice used: 100% Yamadanishiki produced in Hyogo Prefecture
Alcohol content: 16

A gift. It is nice and slightly carbonated while producing a fruity taste that is easy for anyone to drink. The sweetness is not persistent, and it ends with a refreshing sake feeling that does not leave any aftertaste, which may be the work of a sake brewer who understands sake thoroughly. Great job!

Happy New Year 😊
I will continue to drink this year while referring to your check-ins 😂.
On New Year's Day, the first bottle was Kudokidotte Shiboritate (only this time of year they bring in Yongo bottles 😢), which is an annual New Year's Eve and New Year tradition.
This year's bottle has a strong sweetness.
Fresh and fruity taste.
I think it gets more acidic after a while, but it's a very tasty sake!
However, it is not too sweet, so you will not get tired of drinking it, and it will not interfere with your meal, so you can drink up to a four-pack bottle in one gulp!
The taste of Kudokitoe, which is a pleasure to enjoy at least once a year, exceeded our expectations this year as well!
Too delicious😍!
Actually, I was drinking more! A playback of all the sake I didn't keep track of (6)
Because it's Junmai Daiginjo? Is it the rice? Or is it the yeast? Whatever the case, it's delicious. I'm not a big drinker, so I've decided to drink no more than a half a sake every day, but I finished a bottle in no time at all.

Happy 150th anniversary 🎊
We also tasted another kind of Yamadanishiki 😋.
I felt the beauty of highly polished rice even more ✨.
This one might be good as a luxury food sake with some nice sashimi or something 😉.
(Yamadaho is more like an after-dinner drink on its own)

Kamenoi Sake Brewery was founded 150 years ago this year ㊗️
The brewery is always too cosy to worry about, but here again, they were generous enough to serve 15% polished sake for 3 tickets 🫨.
Thank you for everything 🙏🙏🙏🙏.
Naturally we had both kinds✨
Naturally delicious 😋.
By the way, I personally preferred this one, Yamadaho, because it was fuller and sweeter 🫶.
Daiginjo ♫ after a long time!
The 44% rice polishing ratio is definitely refreshing, but it also has a slightly sour and fruity taste that is delicious (^^)
It was my first time to drink it👍
