＜Sweet and savory from the start! Aroma!
The color is clear and transparent.
The aroma is modestly sweet with a hint of brown sugar. It looks sweet and delicious.
The mouthfeel is mellow, and from the very beginning there is a deep sweet flavor! And then a hint of sweet and bitter alcohol. YUM!!!!
It's interesting that the bitterness is in the aroma but not so much in the taste. The acidity is mild, but there is a tropical fruit-like fruitiness. The flavor is not intense, but the impression is soooo intense. A jackpot.

If I were to compare it to Ghibli, it would be like Okiyo from "Heisei Raccoon Dogfight Ponpoko". She is a raccoon dog, but she is cute. She is in love with the main character, Masayoshi.
Satisfaction: ★★★★☆
I'll post the full version on the blog, complete with character images and such. If you'd like, you can search for "korune sake" or come from the link in my profile section.
Nanikore.
It's so cool.
And I bought the jacket.
I've never heard of Chiyoda brewery.
I opened the bottle immediately.
Ugh!
It's full of rice flavor!
I can tell even without drinking it, this is...!
As soon as you take a sip...
Rice!
That's it! It's so much rice!
It's funny, the liquor store's introduction label says.
"Reminiscent of white peaches..."
It says "reminiscent of white peaches..." on the label.
Come on.
I don't feel a bit of it.
It's totally rice.
It's not about whether it's good or bad.
It's not my favorite.
It should be heated.
I'll see you next time in "I tried heating it up! I'll see you next time.
Shinryo Banhaku is a wonderful word.
It is a comfortable sake that is good for drinking at night. It is also good as a midday drink. It is very smooth and has no peculiarities.
It was given to me by someone who knows a lot about sake, so I wonder if it's a rare sake?
I wanted to try a light nigori...
The nigori is also good, but my wife prefers the light nigori, so I chose this one with the light nigori in mind.
It was a little dry, with a hint of apple or pear. Pear? It has a fruity flavor like apple or pear.
At the end, it is good to feel that the miscellaneous taste remains. This may divide the taste. It would be good if the balance was a little better.
The light nigori is good.
This is a 10 year old 60% polished undiluted sake. I've had the aged sake here before, so I just tasted it. Because it was stored in the warehouse, it has a beautiful aged feeling. For an old sake, it is refreshing and easy to drink.
I'm ashamed to say😌 that I'm not familiar with the sake from the Kansai region.
At my favorite liquor store, there was one last bottle of "Chiyoda-kura" left.
It stood out so much that I picked it up and bought it on the spur of the moment.
Refreshing fruity aroma😊.
It has a candy color.
It was very easy to drink and it went in easily ☺️.
After that, the full, thick flavor spreads quickly and fills you with a depth of flavor😄.
The acidity is also effective😊.
After a while, the pungent taste came out and the aroma of melon and pineapple was left behind.
It's a rich and delicious sake that will leave you satisfied😍.

It is rich but fruity, and you will never get tired of it. It goes well with any kind of food from rich to light, but I prefer to drink it with strong dishes.
The first time you drink it, it's a little sweet, but soon you'll be able to drink it with a strong acidity❗️It has a strong taste, so it goes well with dishes with a strong flavor and fried foods🍤❗️It has a good aroma and is fruity
The aroma is also moderately fruity and delicious ❗️It goes well with dishes and fried foods 🍤
Almost colorless and transparent. It has a fruity aroma reminiscent of bananas combined with a rice-like aroma. The intensity of the aroma is moderate. It has a fresh and refreshing acidity that stands out on the palate. It has an astringent aftertaste with a hint of rice. The aftertaste is slightly long. It is a fragrant and mellow sake.
On the fifth day after opening the bottle, I heated it up, and the acidity and astringency became more pronounced, while the flavor increased and became more mellow.
