Fruit? It's a sake that you can enjoy the aroma like. It's a little smooth and tastes like a good sake. It's a feeling I haven't had much of before, so good good good good.
Fresh and gorgeous! Aromas of green apple, pear, and white peach.
Even though the alcohol is a bit strong, the impression is sweet and fresh.
In the mouth, there is a slightly carbonated, piquant sensation characteristic of freshly squeezed sake.
It is juicy with a rich rice flavor and a moderate acidity.
It has a softness that does not make you feel the 18% alcohol content.
The first sip has a mild umami flavor, followed by a light astringency and acidity.
It has a "calm depth" that is typical of autumn sake, but the aftertaste is crisp and clean.
Today, I participated in the "Kanagawa 12 Breweries Autumn Thanksgiving Festival 2025". The most impressive sake among the various tastings was Momokurado by Yoshikawa Brewery. It is a very sweet and acidic junmai sake with a sake degree of -35 at 90% rice polishing ratio. The impact of such a drastic sake is strong.
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.
It has a gentle and gentle feeling with a hint of warmth!
I was told that it would be better at room temperature, but I finished it cold..! I only regret that I drank it all while it was cold...
It is a light nigori with 10 degrees alcohol by volume, sweet but not harshly sweet and with a good acidity.
I'm keeping a reminder in my notebook from a post from a while ago😓.

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.
