At NIhonshu shika in Nara
Chikuma-Nishiki Nigori Sake 🍶.
It is so rich that you would think it was twice as thick as Endo Shuzo's Dobu.
It is dry, not sweet, and has a strong rice flavor.
Hi Usagoden 😃
It is intoxicating to have a drink at the birthplace of CHUIN. ☺️ I envy you that you are geographically close to us!
I would like to go congratulate Murata-san aka shika-san for passing the SAKE DIPLOMA, but it's too far away...
Aladdin-san, that Murata-san was interested in SAKE NO WANI and created an account. So we posted this at the store to follow each other. I would like to participate in the offline meeting, but it will be difficult because of the store 🐰💦.
Congratulations again on passing the test, Rabbit🐰🎉🎊!
I wonder if the store passed at the same time as you, congratulations! The sake wawa solicitations are great ✨.
You have a solid nigori in Chikuma Nishiki as well 😳.
This is the second drink! The picture is blurry...
We were served a sake that was not on the menu!
Our first Chikuma-Nishiki Jungin from Nagano!
It was a delicious sake with a nice matured taste, cinnamon-like flavor, slight sweetness, roundness and depth!
I felt my body gradually warmed up. ☀️
It's fun to drink good sake with good friends 😃.
The third stage of a sake brewery in Saku City. It has a dry taste with a little sweetness from the rice. I would have preferred a little more umami and acidity. We are looking forward to the Daiginjo we got at the sake brewery's new sake festival.
Completely bought the packet.
It has a caramel-like aroma and a delicious flavor. I started drinking it cold, but I think it would be better hot. It's finally the season to enjoy hot sake.
I participated in the Chikumanishiki Sake Brewery open house event. This event is held twice a year in spring and fall.
Is this an event-only sake?
It is a combination of Miyamanishiki and Yamae Nishiki, the pride of Nagano Prefecture's sake rice.
Assemblage in wine.
Blended in whiskey.
[Aroma
Although the rice polishing ratio is 39%, the aroma is not so strong. This may be due to the nature of sake rice.
The main aroma is sourness, and it is refreshing.
Sour aroma of apple and pineapple, aroma of rice hulls. Aroma like orange peel. There is also a sense of alcohol.
There are sweetness of rice and spiciness of sake in the citrus aroma. Such aroma.
Taste.
On the palate, there is a fresh sweetness like apple, pineapple, peach, and muscat on the tongue.
However, the sweet fruity sensation is fleeting, and the mouth and nostrils are immediately flooded with sourness and pungency.
In the aftertaste, the aforementioned sourness and pungency are easily overcome, and one can enjoy a gradually sweet feeling.
Summary
Sweet and fruity...?
No! Spicy!
...But the aftertaste is gradually sweet!
This sake is like that.
It was not blended at the spring event.
It was easier to drink this time.
I wanted to buy another bottle of "Sakiya"! It was already sold out!

The taste is sweet at first, then sour.
It is delicious!
Like the previous post, I received this as a souvenir from a friend's trip to Nagano, Japan!
This is my first brand too!
Cold sake.
Characteristic sweetness that lingers on the tongue
Mellow but rather sweet
The aftertaste is long.
