My favorite Junmai cup of Kimasa. I found it at a liquor store and bought it with a leap of the hand. The aroma is mild...and the taste is...a robust Junmai sake with a big thump. I love it again. I love fruity and juicy, and I also love robust and firm. Sagaminada, Kunigon, and Kimasa are perfect for the robust and firm style.
A dry sake with umami and a sharp taste.
It has a crisp and refreshing taste.
Goes well with gout hot pot.
It was hard to drink by itself, but it was good with food.
Manufacture date: October 2022
My husband was on a one-day business trip to Tokyo, so I asked him for some sake from Tokyo that he hadn't filled in on the map yet: ☺️
I gave him a memo 📝 with about 4 candidate brands after looking them up on Sake-no-Wawa and a liquor store that he could walk to from his office, but he said that was the only one in Tokyo there.
The aroma is classic and nice, and the drink is refreshing and goes well with food.
I served it cold with fried horse mackerel.
Polishing ratio 50%.
Alcohol content 16

The aroma is fruity, or whatever. At any rate, it is good. It's a pure sake, but the ratio is 60%. When I drank it, I felt it was tangy and the taste was strong. There is not much fruity flavor.
When I bought it, the shopkeeper said, "It's raw sake, so the alcohol is strong. So this is what they mean by "heavy because it's a pure sake"? I learn that it is.
The rice is Niigata's Gohyakumangoku. Polishing ratio 60%. The water used is from the underground water that springs from Togura Castle Mountain. The alcohol content of this sake is 18%, so you can feel it well. Fermentation of yeast, fear not! and you will experience it.
After a few days after opening the seal, the alcohol loosens up and you get a pleasantly melon-like feeling. You must be drunk, lol.
I'll take my parents' stock 🍶.
By the third day it had mellowed a bit and my wife could drink it.
It's been a long time since I've had it, but for some reason I'm eager to drink it again.
Beautiful label...18% alcohol by volume...the alcohol is very strong...aroma: a faint aroma of rice. You can feel the delicious taste of rice on the palate...but the bitterness in the aftertaste is bothersome...It's like a good old Japanese sake...I'm having it with sashimi assorted by my regular old man. .... I'm sipping it. It's a raw sake, so it warms you up....

Just because I'm a Tokyoite doesn't mean I can easily buy Tokyo sake 😰.
I only see Yamori, Edo Kaijo, Sawanoi, and Taman Boast, which I used to see a lot when I was not a sake drinker 😭.
Really, for non-Tokyo residents, filling in Tokyo might be as hard as filling in Miyazaki or Okinawa 😱.
I always go to the liquor store and check the brand I'm seeing for the first time to see which prefecture it is from. It's a sake from Tokyo 😘.
And I've never heard of Momiji Oroshi, but it's a good fall sake 🥰.
Well, I bought it and let it sit for about 3 weeks, so I had a glass 🍷 of it 😋 when it was kin cold.
Oh, this is not for amateurs. I know it's supposed to be a food sake, but I thought it needed to be a little warmer to open up the flavor, so I warmed it up to lukewarm and proceeded to drink it, and I think it's getting a little better 😜.
For me, I was looking for a sake with a more robust flavor, but it's just an easy-drinking sake without the weird alcohol smell 🍶.
Kiyomasa's Momiji Oroshi. It has the robust aroma of junmai rice. Unexpectedly, the sweetness stands out on the palate. After that, the robust umami and bitterness typical of Kimasa spread out. It has an impressive taste with a sense of maturity typical of autumn sake.
