Purchased because of the direct pumping and medium take-out.
Kitajima itself is also of interest to me, and I have high expectations for it.
When the bottle was opened, there was not much aroma.
When you drink it, you will be hit with the umami of rice.
Then, the freshness of the directly pumped sake and the elegant taste of the middle part of the bottle.
The taste is freshness from direct pumping and the elegant flavor of the middle part of the bottle,
The sharp dry taste keeps you from getting tired of drinking it,
It is very delicious.
It was a very good sake that was easy to pair with food.
Hi Shonan Han 😃.
Congratulations on your first Kitajima-san 🎉 ㊗️
We love Kitajima-san fresh too 😋I've never had Yamada Nishiki, but this is really good sake 🤗.
Hi Jay & Nobby, ❗️
I drank it for the first time and was surprised at how delicious it was👍It's become a repeat brand and I'd love to try other specs 😊.
It has an alcohol content of 20 degrees, but the fruity aroma, sweet and easy to drink? It is deceptive. There is also a sense of alcohol in the aftertaste that goes into the nose, and it feels dangerous to continue drinking.
It tastes heavy with a little tartness and a gulp of sweetness and umami. Thinking about the next day, I weakly tried it on the rocks, but it still tastes good.
Traveling to a liquor store corner
The label was interesting, so I drank it.
It was dry and had a little bit of a quirk to it, but it had an interesting taste.
Well, my body is not able to keep up with the drastic temperature difference today😅That's when I need warm food and here: 💁♂️
Now, let's start. The color is yellowish. The aroma is refreshingly sour with a hint of fermentation. The aroma is light for a Kitajima. When you put it in your mouth, the acidity comes first, but the overall taste is light. The balance of slight sweetness, umami and bitterness is very good. ☺️
With Calbee and kimchi soup. The acidity of this sake refreshes the punchy sourness and spiciness of kimchi in the mouth. It's a great match 👍
I also tried heating it up to lukewarm and the acidity increased 😳 and it tasted like sake all at once 🍶.
Personally, I prefer it cold.

It's clear, dry, and delicious!
I wonder if they use good water because it is from Shiga Prefecture. It is refreshing in the mouth after drinking.
Personally, I would rather drink it in large gulps with a meal than drink it slowly and quietly (be careful not to drink too much).
Long time no see Kitajima🍶.
Today I'm having 🍢 with oden.
I drank Kitajima with Oden at this time last year too💦.
From the petit texture to the delicious flavor and crisp aftertaste.
It's the perfect sake for oden!
