Despite the pop label. The flavor of the rice is firm, and the The finish is firm and sharp. It has a refreshing ginjo aroma. It is easy to match with meals.

✧🍶🍶🍶🍶´- Today I received a bottle of Kamikigen 😀. It's been quite a while since I've had a bottle of Kamikigen 😙. The aroma is not so strong when it is cold, but when the temperature rises a little, it has a nice aroma that is often found in sweet and umami type sake 🥰. It was a delicious sake 😚.

Today I opened a bottle of Kamikigen, a souvenir given to me by a good friend from Yamagata during GW. Today happened to be our wedding anniversary (the day we got married), so I had it with a special feeling. I am grateful to my best friend and my wife every day.

Kamikigen Junmai Ginjo Rice Label 100% Toyama Prefecture produced Yuyamanishiki Polishing ratio 55 Alcohol content 16%. Sake meter degree: +3, Acidity: 1.3 Fat: Drunk on 4/27/05 Ginjo tuna (3/7) This is my first time to drink Kamikigen! First time for me to drink a rice called Yuyamanishiki... The smell before drinking and after drinking is very mild. It is refreshing and fruity, and as it is called a rice label, you can feel the flavor of the rice, but it is also basically refreshing and acidic, and the balance between this acidity and the rice is perfect for a meal. It went well with sashimi 😘. Delicious!

☆☆☆☆☆ Since it's a holiday weekend without going out, we will have a relaxing drink at Kamikigen. It is a refreshing sake with citrus-like acidity and a slight gaseous sensation. Not only the acidity but also the fresh umami comes in a flash and it's delicious☺.
