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.

The aroma is rather subdued. Contrary to its viscous appearance, it is very good with a very refreshing dry taste.

It may be dry, but it also has a normal sake feel. It also gives a feeling of being insufficient compared to others.

Drinks like water. It has an aroma, but it seems a little sweet. I think it was more sweet when I drank it before, so maybe it's just a coincidence.

Kamikigen Aka Label Omachi Nakadori Namaoto Junmai Ginjo Rating 4.4 Omachi produced in Akaban is made in the nama-moto style. The acidity of the brewery from the nama-moto process and the softness unique to Omachi are an excellent match. Only the middle portion was bottled for this beautiful and flavorful junmai ginjo. It has a subdued pear-like aroma and a smooth mouthfeel that gives way to a full-bodied flavor. The deep flavor and core acidity produced by the nama-moto process. Chocolate-like flavor. Sweet umami.
