KANKOUBE Junmai Asahi Aki-agari
I had an image that Asahi rice was close to Omachi.
But this one is a little weak?
It's dry with umami, not bad.
However, the umami and bitterness are weak for an autumn harvest.

Good day!
This week has gone by in the blink of an eye and it's Thursday!
I knew that a day goes by so fast when kindergarten starts 🤣.
Today, we have the Four Seasons series from Ohatsu no Kankoume!
I've always seen this at my local liquor store, but for some reason I've never tried it. I've been buying the same sake lately, or the one I enjoyed last year, so I haven't tried it in a while 😎♥️
The owner of the liquor store said he thought I'd like it, so I thought for sure I'd try it, and yes, it's delicious 😎.
It's juicy🍇and sweet too😎♥️
Here's to new encounters~✌️
Good evening, Jun-san!
I would like to repeat the delicious sake 🎵.
Congratulations on your first Kankoume 🎉!
The animal series is very sweet but also well-balanced and delicious 😋.
Good morning, Jun 😃.
Oh! We also raised the same 🦉 yesterday 🤗.
Happy adventures and congratulations on your first cold red plum ㊗️ 🎉The day is early 💦 but it's good to have a leisurely evening 😌.
Good evening, Jun-san!
When daycare starts, the whole day goes by in a blink of an eye: getting ready before going, dropping off, picking up, packing, bathing, putting to bed 😅.
Corona is going around again, so please be careful ✨️
The Penguin🐧 summer sake we had a while ago was so good 😋 that Nobby suggested we drink all of the animal series from Kanhongbai 🤗 and brought the next autumn sake, Owl🦉, ‼️
I would like to drink "Polar bear in winter🐻" and "Rabbit in spring🐇" as the seasons change 👋.
I'll make love to you!
The aroma is fresh and fruity 😌.
The first sip has a gaseous feeling, but the mouthfeel is gentle and sweet, with a sourness that lingers on the palate along with the lingering umami ☺️
I'm not sure if it's the sweetness or the acidity that lingers in the mouth along with the lingering umami...but as I continue to drink it, the sweetness is also a little too much...maybe our tongues are buggy these days😰 so I switched to the next sake after drinking about half!
The next day, we were worried that it might still be too sweet 😅, but when we drank it, we found out that it tasted a little less sweet 😳.
It's been a while since J&N enjoyed the taste of the second day. ☺️
By the way, last weekend Nobby met up with a friend from middle school and high school after 28 years 🥹 and we thought we would have a lot of fun reminiscing, but she is an avid fan of the Dodgers ⚾️ and the two girls had a great time talking about players and games while eating gyoza 🥟😆.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😃.
I'm curious about the animal series of Kanboume as I haven't tasted the whole season 🤤.
Interesting to see the opening changes 🤔.
It's a good thing that we are old friends, we can quickly get excited about a common topic, even if we don't talk about memories 😊.
Jay & Nobby, good evening 😃I thought it was a law that the sweetness increases as the day goes on, but this is different 😳Sake is very deep 😊I love owls, so I might take you out if I meet you.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😃.
You are steadily drinking the animal series after the last penguin 🐧😇.
I love the sweetness of this series after the Ooamine 😙.
Jay & Nobby, it's fun to drink the animal series and compare them 😄I couldn't do that with Tedorigawa, so I'll try again next time. And the sweetness settles down as the day goes on? I wonder if it is due to oxidation.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌙.
It's still very hot and maybe it's the tongue of summer, but when the temperature drops a little and winter approaches, you may want some sweetness. Let's enjoy it like that.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby😄.
I would like to complete the series 😆 It will be a fun and meaningful drinking time 😆 It might be rare to have less sweetness after ❣️ days 🤔I would like to have more sweetness 🤤.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby😄!
Drunk on the taste of the second day👍Very nice words...after all, the taste changes and it is interesting to change the taste to your liking ✨Baseball discussion over dumplings is hot...sounds like fun😍.
Good evening Jay & Nobby😊.
I only drank the Shirokuma, it had a soft sweet and sour taste 😋 like? Maybe...
I know, when you see a cute animal, you just can't help it 🤣.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌙.
I myself enjoyed the drink I had last time (a drink called Hoshineko) so I brought my owl along 🦉.
It still looks delicious 😋.
I can't resist animal labels 😆.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby!
Kankoume's animal series may indeed be a little sweet for you two 😲.
I like sweetness so I quite liked it 😋.
Nobby's Gyoza with baseball talk⚾ sounds like a fun banquet 🤗.
Good morning, Jay & Nobby 😀
I love series that have sake for each season 🤣.
I wanted to try Kankoume too, but I'm a little scared that I might get addicted to it 😅.
Good morning, Jay & Nobby😄Gasiness, sweetness, and sweetness. How interesting! I've been curious about Kankoume's animal series and would love to get my hands on some!
Mr. Jay & Mrs. Nobby
Good morning!
I see that Kankoubai has a seasonal animal series 🤩I love the seasons, but I tend to buy too many other sake breweries and before I know it, the next seasonal sake is already on the shelves 😅...
Good evening, Jay & Nobby.
I guess it's what you call buying labels ☺️☺️ in, and unexpected discoveries as well! Now, I am also a Dodgers fan and I care more about the team winning than Otani's success 😁😁😁 lol.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby🌝.
Mr. Kankoume, I've always been interested in you because of your cute label. ☺️
Mr. Otani, you've become like a heavenly being as I watch the news etc. and wonder if you're really the same age as me 😂.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌛.
[I came here after peeking at [Jun]'s review, so I had a sense of deja vu 🤣.
It got me thinking that there might not be a surprising variety of bottles with owl designs 🤔.
Hi Aladdin 😃
I think the first bottle of a series is the key 😋, because if the first one is good, you want to keep going 😊.
The opening change is just our sensation 😅it was fresh 😙I really thought it was important to have an old friend 😌.
Hi there, studying 😃.
Yes, yes! We learned that rule too 🧐 and this was one that put the kibosh on that established theory 😆.
You must get it if you like owls🦉🤗.
Hi, soumacho 😃
Yes, I'm sorry to hear that! Nobby wanted to drink it all 😋 Maybe our taste buds are a bit hypersensitive to sweetness 😅 It's not that we don't like it, we just can't kill it instantly 😙.
Hi Sashi 😃
There's a lot going on in the series, isn't there? Good luck with your revenge ‼️ Well... some say it's just our senses changing 😅The second day was delicious 😌.
Hi Ars 😃
I see, "summer tongue"! I'll take it and use it next time 😁 Thanks to Ars's recommendation I found a good series! I'm looking forward to ‼️ winter tongue 😋.
Hi Hina Hana Mama 😃.
Yes, I think I'll go after it for now! I'm going to chase it for now for one round 🤗 we are not so sure about our tongue 😓I don't know if it's right 😅I don't know if it's sweet again the next day 😆.
Hello ichiro18 😃
Yes, I was very happy to see you here! The taste was different and pleasantly intoxicating ☺️
It's kind of funny to see two girls talking passionately in 🥟⚾🍺😁.
Hello there, Ticktock Mountain 😃.
That's the one you drank on your anniversary! That starry sky label 🌌 is fascinating 🥹.
And I see you have an owl🦉 at home 👋 I'll be waiting for you to come up to ‼️
Hi ma-ki-😃
Sweet is good too 😅I'm J&N with a dry tongue now😇.
Looks like it was a hot discussion between two dumplings and a dodger ⚾️ gaggle of dodgers 😆.
Hi, Koizo 😃
I know what you mean 😅! I know what you mean 😅 I can't stop drinking and wanting to drink more and more 😅.
It's a never ending game of catch up😇.
Hi Sasuyuu 😃.
The previous penguin 🐧 was recommended by Ars and it was so good we talked about winning the series 🤗.
MLB⚾ is finally in full swing and every day's game is exciting💓.
Hi Gyve 😃
Yes, I'm not sure if it's a good idea to have the same picture angle! I had it up on the same day with a similar angle of view 😅Déjà vu? I think 😁.
What's an owl🦉 for sure? and googled some of them 🧐.
Maybe I'll become an owl hunter 😎 or something 😆.
It's been a while since I bought sake for home use!
The label is cool 😊.
The taste is royal, somewhat fresh, with a nice aftertaste and umami!
Delicious!
KANKOUBEI Junmai Yamadanishiki 60%, 3058 yen
Typhoon 🌀 passed in a flash and my house was safe 🥹🚗There was flooding everywhere and several cars were stuck 🚗³₃❗️I managed to get through the road🤔river🤔 with more than half of my tires buried and was very nervous🥶💦😱.
Today's snacks are hometown scallop sashimi, ume shiso grilled chicken and fried bitter gourd with curry flavor‼️I'm all set for sake tonight too🫡!
Now open the bottle❗️The color is a little yellowish and I imagine it tastes like aged 🤔The aroma is a nice ginjo aroma💜The first attack is... a gentle sweetness that defies expectations and is delicious 😋This is a happy miscalculation‼️
- Penguin, when you open the bottle, it has a shwishy feeling: ‼︎ In the mouth, it has a very good balance of sweetness and acidity, and it is very easy to drink: ⤴️ It is very good: ❣️
Gold Award Winner🥇.
It beat out Jikin from the same prefecture to win the gold medal.
That must be great 🤣.
Yamadanishiki, but the sweetness is moderate,
It has a clear outline of umami and strength.
It is very drinkable and delicious 😋.
Good evening, Choroki-san!
Kankou Ume is delicious, isn't it😋?
It won a gold medal, didn't it: ⤴️
I had it at a drinking party and it was a great sake 🤗.
I saw the label "PROTOTYPE" in a corner of the well-stocked HASHIWAYA and bought it right away!
I saw the label "PROTOTYPE" and immediately bought it!
It is hard to imagine from the lightness of the mouthfeel.
The spread of robust umami and a little bitterness
It has a good sharpness with a little bitterness, which is hard to imagine from its lightness in the mouth.
The structure is so clean that it is hard to believe that it is a PROTOTYPE!
Another sake that you can keep drinking 🍶.
Attracted by the owl label and anticipating the fall
Lightly effervescent and gentle in taste, it was too hot, but it's a retrospective of a summer that had a lot going on.
