キラタソ
Tonight, our first series, Kikuyu by Yoshikawa Brewery from Isehara City, Kanagawa Prefecture. It is 100% Dewa Sanzu, Junmai Nama-no-Hajime made with Kyoukai No. 6 yeast. It has a ginjo aroma between cucumber and pear, and the first sip is clear with a full sweetness, but later on, a strong bitterness and alcohol taste follows, making it dry and smooth.

Tonight, we decided to open a new sake once in a while, so we had this one from the Yoshikawa Sake Brewery in Kanagawa Prefecture. Junmai Nigori Sake - Luxurious Aragoshi ✨✨✨✨. The sake seems to have been bottled after the new sake unrefined sake has been roughly fermented 😄. The aroma has a hint of pear and apple. When you take a sip, you can feel the gasiness and acidity, but it is juicy and delicious 😋😋😋😋 When you mix the lees, you can feel the sweetness of the rice and the creaminess increases, which is also delicious 😋😋. This was definitely one to repeat 🤗

A bottle I bought on my first visit at the beginning of the year. It has been a long time since I have had a bottle with a dry, Han-like taste. It has a strong alcohol taste. If you warm it too much, the strength will increase, It is best to warm it up to lukewarm to get the right roundness. It was cold, so we had it with oden.

Alcohol content 13%. Polishing ratio 90 100% Iwate-grown Kame-no-o rice As "Kame-no-o" approached the modern age, its characteristics such as "susceptibility to pests" and "brittleness when grown with chemical fertilizers" made it unsuitable for modern farming methods, and its descendants gradually took over the cultivation area. In fact, by the 1970s, Koshihikari and other varieties had completely replaced it. Finally, it was no longer cultivated at all, and before its revival in the 1980s, "Kame-no-o" was even referred to as a "phantom variety. It has a slightly alcoholic taste.

After a trip to Kanagawa and a search on Google Maps for a liquor store where I could stop by on my way back to Enoshima, I found this liquor store, Darumaya Sake Shop. We were in a hurry to get back to Niigata to avoid the traffic jam, and we made our way through an intricate, narrow residential area to get there. I ran in and asked for some sake from Kanagawa! I said, "We don't have any," but they offered me this one, Kikuyu. The elegant chrysanthemum with a touch of Western-style painting and strong brush strokes on the chrysanthemum is a perfect example of Kikuyu. The name is not "Kiku Isami" but "Kiku Yuu. Kiku Isami is a Yamagata brand. Recently, Wani Isami (original name Takai Isami) has appeared in a Conan movie, so it is read as Isami. It is a golden color, Clear and fruity apple aroma, Smooth and smooth. acidity and astringency. spicy and hot. It has a hint of sweetness, and It has a complex flavor, and is a perfect match with food and drinks, It is a junmai sake with a complex umami flavor, and is very drinkable with a meal. Delicious. I would like to have a chance to try it again, as I don't have a sake lid from Kanagawa yet. The bearded man stadium line was great. === ===All the ingredients are in the same bottle. Ingredients:Rice(domestic),Rice malt(domestic) Rice polishing ratio: 75 Alcohol content: 16%. 720ml 1,760yen ===★★★★☆☆☆☆ ★★★★☆☆☆

The aroma and mouthfeel are strong. It also feels heavy on the throat. It is just like a sturdy gatekeeper.

It is thick. When you put it in your mouth, it is easy to drink with little aroma, but as it goes down your throat, the sake-like aroma and the heat peculiar to alcohol appear. Since it has a strong sake flavor, I was able to drink quite a bit from a cup full of sake. I didn't like the aftertaste, so I drank it with mandarin orange sake.
