Rugged name and label, and one letter, spicy!
But the label of bronze wine winner.
I thought, "Hmmm..." but it was like a gentle guy with a tough face and no strong, spicy image of alcohol at all.
And the next day, it was more mellow...
I hope everyone feels that they were fooled by the label.
It is sweet and umami, and finally it is cut off by a feeling of alcohol.
It has more umami than sweetness, and the texture is thick and sticky on the tongue.
I like it as a classic local sake.
Purchased at a souvenir shop in Chiba.
It is rare to find a 500ml bottle.
I am satisfied with its cost performance.
Thank you very much.

Koshikoi has an image of a Showa-era sake, but there is a wine challenge sticker on the label. We thought that Koshikoi is not suitable for a glass of wine, but we bought it anyway. There is no description of the polishing, so it seems to be a regular sake.
The first sip after opening the bottle.
It tastes like old Chiba sake, but it is not sticky. As the name suggests, it is dry. +I heard it has a +18.9 rating.
There is no richness.
I tried it in a wine glass just for the sake of experimentation. Well, it's not very aromatic, so it's not very good. I wonder why they put such a sticker on it.
It was the usual Koshikoi, a wine for eating.

I heard it was used at the summit.
I got it during my trip. I was happy to drink sake with delicious sashimi and dishes at the ryokan.
In fishing towns along the coast, dry sake is favored. I remember this when I see sake at a sake shop along the coast.

I got it as a souvenir from Chiba. It reminded me of Katori, which is also made in Chiba. In my opinion, it would be better if it were a little more refreshing or full-bodied.
A private label product named after Hasuike, Chiba City, which once flourished as a flower town. Inside is a junmai sake from Koshikoi.
It has a slightly dry mouthfeel, a junmai-like mellowness, and a bitter aftertaste that makes it a well-balanced sake that can be easily matched with food.
