When I visited Yamaya to buy beer, they had just replenished Kamo Nishiki packaged sake.
I felt like I was being called, so I took home this cosy, light and refreshing nigori sake.
We enjoyed it with a side dish of Kabako crab, which had suddenly become cheap.
I was sorry to hear about Oh-no-sato's absence from the tournament. I hope he will recover well and do his best in the first tournament next year!
The bottle was opened at the working day!
Kamonishiki - first time drinker!
Crisp aroma!
Sour and spicy, with a hint of plum.
and a slight plum-like aroma. Tangy and tangy
Bitter taste remains.
Delicious 😋
I don't even know how to read "Tankan Wataribune"!
This sake is made from a rare rice called tanzaku wataribune. It was firm yet refreshing, with no sweetness, but it was delicious!
Fukuhara Sake Shop Hanpukai Sake
First packaged sake
Strong aroma! Melon
Slightly bubbly, a bit of bitterness, sourness and sweetness, and ends with a gentle sweetness.
Quite to my liking!
When you put it in your mouth, you feel a soft sweetness. After that, you can feel the sharpness. It has a good balance of umami and acidity. 14 degrees dry. It is delicious.
Kamo Nishiki Shagafuda Sake Kame-no-o 2024BY Aged in ice temperature.
Just hearing the specs of this ice-aged Kame-no-o from my favorite shipper sake, I could already tell it was going to be delicious.
The liner says that it is suitable for aging for years, but there is no way I can wait that long, so I uncorked the bottle!
The nose is dry and mineral, with a gentle nose with a slight pear-like nuance, and a generous spread of flavor. The beautiful acidity and pleasant bitterness decorate the extended finish.
It is a great balance of tamed and modernized wild Turtle Tail!
Kamo Nishiki is a next-generation sake brewed by a young brewer.
It is characterized by its balance of freshness and softness, its restrained sweetness, its versatility in food pairings, and the fact that it never gets old.
The sake is freshly squeezed and bottled on the spot. It is recommended to drink it cold to enjoy the freshness and natural, soft aroma of freshly squeezed sake.

Is it less fragrant 🤔?
Still, solid carbonation 🫧.
Is it a refreshing taste like cider? I thought it would be, but it ended up having a solid flavor and a light sweetness, which is typical for a packaged sake 😊.
Light sweet pineapple. Fruity aroma.
The aroma is mildly sweet with a light acidity and a mild to strong umami. The nose is not too long and the bitterness and umami are not long-lasting. The second half is a bit drier than the usual Kamo Nishiki, but not that much.

Gentle sweetness at the entrance. Soft and mild in the mouthfeel.
Soon after, the firm body and umami of rice, typical of Kame-no-o, come out with a bang.
The acidity is moderate without being too sharp, giving it a "chunky but not dry" feeling.
