This Kuribayashi was specially ordered by our favorite liquor store.
The Kuribayashi Brewery is highly acclaimed these days, but I had never had much of it, so I had this one that the liquor store recommended.
I had a strong impression that it was sweet, but the balance of sweetness, umami, and acidity was excellent, and the quality of sake seems to have improved a lot compared to a decade ago.
Well, I think the improvement of sake quality can be said for all sake.
Krillin?
I'm glad I didn't say it out loud at the liquor store.
So it's Ritsurin? 🤔
I've never seen this brand before, so I asked the clerk if it was modern leaning before I got it... ♪
I thought I would take a day off because I was entertaining the next day, but I had to work late so I opened the bottle to recharge for tomorrow.
The aroma is slightly fruity.
It has more alu than I expected, but the melon-like sweetness and sourness that swells up from the melon-like sweetness and flavor makes it sharp and crisp.
The aftertaste is not dull, so it is easy to drink and you can't stop drinking.
But I'll hold out for 2 cups for tomorrow. 🙄🙄🙄
It was my first time and I found another delicious bottle 😆👍
MAJ Good evening. I remember thinking, "As expected of the Next 5. I also remember that it was delicious. I didn't think it was Ritsurin and not Kuribayashi. Ritsurin sounds like a youtuber.
Good evening, MAJ!
I thought it was Kuribayashi too!
Ritsurin is a little hard to find 🤣.
It looks delicious and I'd love to drink it if I can find it ✨.
MAJ, good evening 🌙
I can read "Krillin" 🤣It's true, right? I laughed at the nice way of reading 🤣👍I also thought it was funny that you call it Ritsurin even though it's Akita 😳.
MAJ Hello ^ ^
If you read it normally, it's Kuribayashi, right?
I don't think I will read it as Ririn, but I think I will read it as Kuririn from now on 😁.
Good evening, Nochi-san! 😄
So it was a Next 5 warehouse? I did not know that! I know 😲Futu is Kuribayashi, right? Sake is a problem because they want to make it read complicated. 😂YouTubers are. 🤣
Good evening, bouken! 😄
Why Kagawa? I was wondering, there is a Ritsurin Park, isn't there? I see! I didn't know that even though I am a 😲 Shikoku Mon. 🤣
Good evening, kino! 😄
Futsuu is a kuribayashi, isn't it! I did not get to Ritsurin. 😂It was unexpectedly delicious and when I looked closer I saw it was Akita. It's quintessential 😆👍.
Good evening, Mr. Manachy! 😄
So the brewery is Kuribayashi and the brand name is Ritsurin? 🤔That's the same for Tsuneyama, but I wish it was easier to figure out 🤔! 😂But you voted for Kuririn, right? 🤣
Good evening, Pon! I'm sorry to hear that 😄
I twisted it to read "Krillin" because it's a brand of sake. I was about to blow it out secretly too. 🤣It seems like there are a lot of Kuribayashi in Japan. 🤔
Good evening, Manta! 😄
I know, the correct answer was Ritsurin, but please go by Kuririn. 😅The correct answer was Ritsurin, but please go by Kuririn 🤣.
Good evening, Ace! I'm so glad to see you here 😄.
Ritsurin seems to be a common name in Kagawa Prefecture. In Akita, there seems to be Kuribayashiyama (Kuribayashi Mountain), but for some reason it is Ritsurin. 🤔Sake is hard to find 🤔! 🤣
I ordered it thinking it would be creamy because it said "cream label" and it wasn't at all, but it was delicious. The taste seems to be very different right after opening the package and after letting it rest. I drank it after a few days of storage and it was very tasty.
@HasegawaSanP
Enjoy sake in a little calm at the end of GW
With that in mind, we went to Hasegawa-san!
I don't go to the restaurant at the Palace Hotel, but today I visited Hasegawa because I was on my way to change trains!
Is it because it is the end of GW?
The fridge was empty.
But I feel it's good that I have less time to choose.
When I asked for recommendations, Kuribayashi and Hitakami seemed reasonable and good!
I decided on Kuririn because it has a strong flavor!
I had it with sashimi, and it was delicious with sweetness and a slight tanginess!
We drank a full four-pack and were very satisfied with our evening!
Delicious 😋😋😋😋!

I was reading "kuribayashi" with all my might 😆.
I'm embarrassed 🫣.
I see you read it as "Ritsurin" 😊.
The aroma is mild, the taste is soft, and the cup never stops 🍶.
I think it performs great as a food sake.
I noticed it was gone lol.
