I bought it earlier this spring and it stood by in the fridge for a long time.
On entry, it has an acidity reminiscent of Kamishinko and smooth yogurt, and a soft, sweet aroma reminiscent of cotton candy.
In the mouth, the rice flavor gradually spreads over the calm acidity. The sweetness of the rice at the entrance is now set back in a good way, with a good sharpness that spreads through the volume of the rice.
This is wonderful!
This is the first time I've had it, but it has a beautiful sense of umami from the rice that doesn't choose food, a balance from the entrance to the middle part of the bottle, and a good sharpness.
It is very good. You can continue drinking it on its own.
Good evening, Yasu-san. I am glad to see you at Sakenawa after a long time 😆 Kikusen is a wonderful sake that I never get tired of drinking. I am happy and relieved to hear your comment about your love for sake 😊🍶.
Hi, Hirupeko! It's been a while ✨I haven't drank anything but beer for a while because my desire to "drink" has declined, and not just sake, but I've suddenly, fortunately or unfortunately, resumed drinking recently 😆😆I'm going to go back to sake now that you mention it 🍶.
Yasusan, I know it's hard to take time out of your busy schedule to drink sake 😓, but from your comment, I'm sure it hasn't gotten cold yet 😎, we're always looking forward to hearing from you 😊.
Thank you for your kind words, Hirupeko! I think sake is a wonderful culture after all, so I will continue to post in a carefree and whimsical way, hoping to convey that rather than just a "memorandum"✨✨.
Outside drinking.
I asked the waiter to give me a refreshing drink with less sweetness 😁.
Here is what came out.
The color is clear.
The aroma is not removed.
There is a slight alcohol taste in the mouth.
The sweetness is pear-like.
The taste is as smooth as water.
The ginjo aroma is rich.
The aroma is mellow, but the smoothness of the throat passage gives the impression of transparency 🍶.
I would like to try a higher grade sake next time 🍶😋.
I like dry sake, so I asked for a dry sake and this is what I got. I thought it was mild for a dry sake. But it was delicious. It went well with the bonito tataki.
