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.

Akihabara (2) The 2nd cup in Akihabara Kamikigen Perfectly Fermented Super Spicy Fully fermented, no sugar left 🤔. Soft sourness? It's called "super-harsh" but I don't feel that much? (In a good way). It's refreshing and easy to drink. It is a dry sake. Is it a good food sake? But you can taste the flavor 😋.

Good morning, Takashi! Thank you for your hard work in summarizing the first half of the year🍀. I also had a bottle of Cho-Kara when I first started at Sake-no-Wa, and as you said, I got the impression that it was a delicious sake with a good flavor, but not too much in a good way 😋.

Hi ma-ki-😊. I feel the owner of this restaurant likes it on this day? It was a good lineup 🥳. The drinks were refreshing and didn't interfere with the meal, so we enjoyed eating and drinking 🥰.

After returning from my trip to Yamagata, I am in a good mood to drink the sake I bought to drink during my trip to Yamagata. I drank it with that as the source of my joy, remembering the Ginzan hot spring I visited on my trip, and it was gone in no time 😆.

コタロー
Hi Higu, ☀️ I enjoyed reading about your trip from Akita to Yamagata 🥳I'm sure the local sake tastes even better while remembering your trip 😋I've only been to Ginzan Onsen in winter, but the green color of the mountains in summer looks great too ✨I hope to go back there ☺️

Good morning, Kotaro-san. Yes, I will enjoy it with the sake🍶 I bought for a while. Winter in Ginzan Onsen ♨️ is nice. Now I want to go there in winter☺️

This drink reminds me of it. It's been 3 years ago now! I received a comment from honda, a legend of Sake-no-wa, when she drank this! I was drinking this on our wedding anniversary, so I told him to call his wife as soon as possible instead of playing "shwatch". I will never forget it! I won't be able to see you at Sake-no-wa anymore, but I will visit you at riki-san in Kumamoto this fall! This sake was a crisp nigori summer sake! extensive knowledge Alcohol content: 16 Sake meter rating: +3 Acidity: 1.5 Rice used: Yamadanishiki and others Rice polishing ratio: 50
