It's long out of my memory now, but I think it was delicious. Not something I'd buy again, but it's a drink I'd be happy to have at Christmas. Lately, I've been sensitive to the bitterness from the carbonation. I remember it being settled and tasty around the fourth day after opening.
My fridge is in a state of chaos... I just want to chug this down smoothly💦 Alright, after the Tenshu sake, next up is Kōei Kiku's Snow Crescent❤️ Rumor has it's delicious, so my expectations are sky-high😊 Caution: Opening this bottle is dangerous⚠️ It's alcohol.
The moment I removed the cap protector, the cork popped out! 😳 Whoops, trouble! ‼️ I quickly checked the bottle... no contents spilled out... phew, that's a relief 😌 I'll pour the clear part. Pouring it into SYUWAN, a soft citrus aroma wafts up ❤️ Taking a sip, there's a definite effervescence. And it's sweet and sour—😍
Though sweet and sour, the acidity isn't overpowering—it's a refreshing taste like biting into a Valencia orange ✨. I wondered if this was really sake, but as it slid down my throat, I knew it was. Then, I turned the bottle upside down to mix in the sediment for the second glass. A slight bitterness emerged. But this was delicious in its own way 😊. I hear it's also delicious warmed, so it feels a bit wasteful, but I think I'll try that tomorrow or later ❤️.
Rururun-san, good evening. The refrigerator problem is a drinker's eternal theme, isn't it? 😅 Kouei Kiku-san's Snow Creme looks delicious as always, doesn't it? 🤤 The timing didn't work out this season either, so next season I really want to savor Valencia oranges. 😍

■The impression of Yusuke Tsuda, son of a sake brewer
Koeigiku Shuzo, Saga, is back in 2019! Limited edition unfiltered unpasteurized sake with an image of an evening scene🌅.
Refreshing acidity with a hint of grapefruit & orange peel, juicy sweetness, and a slight bitterness in the aftertaste.
Enjoy chilled and refreshing ✨.
Originally, it was to coincide with X'mas.
I would have liked to drink it,
But it is now.
When the bottle was opened, with a sizzling sound,
I was a little impatient, but the bottle was opened without incident,
I was a bit nervous, but the bottle was opened without incident.
It has a sweet aroma and is light and refreshing,
It is refreshing, easy to drink, and delicious.
Thank you very much for the drink.
Year-end sake log. Kouei Kiku's Omachi. And it's unfiltered. Absolutely perfect. The lower alcohol content made it so delicious I just gulped it down. The Omachi character wasn't super strong, but it was mellow and easy to drink with a hint of acidity. Good stuff.
Hello! KOUEIGIKU drinking comparison
Clear sake is Aizan
Clear, but fruity!
Since we have been having a lot of orizus since the Merry Crescent, I thought it would be nice to change things up with a beautiful sake 👅.
At the end of the year, Shinmasa was my number one sake, but since the beginning of the year, Koei Kiku has quickly taken over the top spot!
Watch out for another fierce battle this year!

Hello! We will be able to compare KOUEIGIKU again this year!
The light nigori of OMACHI, the crispness is amazing!
It's a big riot in your mouth!

Merry Crescents, which we were selfish enough to get for you at the end of the year.
They said they had a little bit of both bottles left, so we told them they could go ahead and drink them.
Just two cups of sake!
We had a lot of Miyamanishiki sake that day, so this is the manager's favorite Omachi!
It is full of orioles!
It is crisp and delicious 😋!
This was the first time I ordered stir-fried crab vermicelli!
A little spicy!
It is a bit spicy and goes well with Nigori-shu (cloudy sake)!

The shopkeeper told me to be careful when opening the bottle: ⚠️, so I chilled the bottle to the perfect temperature and opened the bottle: ‼️
The bottle was opened by carefully holding the stopper as it lifted with a "pop" sound.
Fresh aroma of green apple, muscatel, and lafrance.
Drinks like a slightly carbonated champagne🍾 ❗️
The taste is rich and mellow with fresh fruitiness and smooth texture on the tongue with a touch of oli.
It has a lingering aftertaste of bitterness along with a considerable amount of gassiness...be careful not to drink too much.
Last of the stock for New Year.
Omachi.
It was almost baptized when the bottle was opened.
The sweetness and umami are mellowed by the bubbles and ori.
The aftertaste is refreshing.
We'll do our best for the new year, too.
Consistent taste😋.
Fruity, slightly carbonated, perfect acidity & bitterness, really easy to drink and delicious.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I'm going to enjoy a relaxing 🐌 home drink this year too☺.
Good evening, it's already the last day of the holiday weekend, and I have zero confidence that I will be able to return to the workforce properly tomorrow, but I will inject some energy here 💁💉.
Kouei Kiku SNOW CRESCENT 2025BY❄️✨
It's been a long time since I've seen Koeikiku, and it's been a long time since I've seen SNOW CRESCENT, so this is another entry for the Nigorin Pic 😊.
The opening was peaceful and the top clear was removed🕊️ clear to slightly cloudy color with beautiful gas bubbles 🫧 The aroma is fresh and slightly sweet with a citrus lemon and greefiness that is intriguing ☺️ The taste is also very tangy gas with about the same amount of schwachiri and the first sip of greefiness with a white sugar on top! The taste is also very delicious 😋🤤😋.
The lees gradually mixes in as you drink it, and the creamy yogurt is a great addition 🐴🐴🐴🐴.
