It was hot... in May... in Saitama Prefecture too. There were some extremely hot days 🤣. On the last day of GW, I went to a shopping mall on the way home from a movie with my wife. I went to a shopping mall to do some shopping. We wandered around Cardi's. Sake. Ice sake?　I thought it would be good when it gets hotter. I tossed it in the back of the basket. I had it waiting in the freezer, but I didn't realize how quickly it would crisp up. It was hot, so I decided to finish it off with a dessert. Adult sherbet Naoshichi is a brand of citrus fruit from Kochi. It's good to have in the freezer from now on. ⭕️ The manufacturer is Kikusui Sake Brewery. No, it's from Kochi, so it's from here.

Okan's present sake series. Today I chose Kikusui. I didn't know there was a Kikusui in Tosa. I didn't know that😓I expected some sweetness since it is a junmai ginjo, but it was very dry. Sometimes it is nice to drink sake at room temperature. It's a single-batch bottle, so it's easy to open 😄.

Today is the last day of work A glass of water to thank for having survived despite everything that happened. Daiginjo-nama sake made to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Kikusui Funaguchi The smooth taste of Kikusui Funaguchi is the same as that of Kikusui Funaguchi. It has a caramel and chocolate-like aged taste, probably because it has been left at room temperature for more than half a year. It has a full-bodied, sweet, mellow taste. It will disappear while you are drinking it little by little. Thank you for your hard work, myself.

It feels clean in the mouth, but when it is poured down the throat, it is full-bodied and rich. It also has a hint of alcohol. Goes well with yakitori. ★★★★

Kikusui Hiyoroshi. I was attracted by the limited autumn season and bought it (laugh). It has a clear throat and a sharp taste on the palate. It is a good sake with Kikusui's umami.

I bought this frozen raw sake along with the Sasanogawa I bought the other day. It is not from Niigata's Kikusui, but from Kochi's Kikusui Sake Brewery. It is dry, but fruity and sweet, and tastes better than I expected. It was best when it was in the process of melting. When completely melted, it is a thin and spicy sake...

Junmai Ginjo. Lots of umami and mushroom on the nose. Soft texture, flavor of light melon, pear, and rather intense pepper on the finish. Alcohol and pepper carry on for a while.

Brewed by Kikusui Shuzo in Shinobata, Niigata Kikusui's "light sweet taste". I often drink Kikusui because it's delicious but this is the first time I've had this spec. When I drank it, I found it to be very fresh and It is filled with a gentle sweetness I can also feel a slight gas 😆 What a delicious sake! What a delicious sake ❕! I didn't know there was such a Kikusui. I want to make this a regular sake 😆.
