Aromas of plum syrup, pear, malted rice, and chocolate.
Slightly smooth mouthfeel.
Sweet and sour and juicy. Deep sweetness and firm umami. Sourness and bitterness that lighten the aftertaste.
Serve with fresh onion salad, hot tofu, sashimi of squid, kawahagi sashimi, and roast beef.
I came across a Koei Chrysanthemum that I have been wanting to drink for a while. Gentle sweetness ➕ slight bitterness. There is a sense of caramel.
Youthfulness spreads the moment it enters the mouth. The lingering aftertaste lasts for a long time. Delicious.
Today, we are drinking while watching Mr. Otani, Ms. Yamamoto, Mr. Imanaga, and Mr. Suzuki. Everyone, I am cheering for you, so please do your best~.
Light and juicy type. You can enjoy minty, hackberry-like flavor and sweetness, apple-like aroma and acidity.

At New Reba Restaurant in Ebisu, where I took two of my junior colleagues from work last week.
The unit price has gone up a bit, but the quality of the yakitori and sake is high.
Beer -> Kuheiji -> Koei Kiku -> Kangiku -> Tedorigawa -> Gangi -> Tenmei -> I forgot.
Good morning, Duke Shibusawa 😃.
New Levaya! I want to go back 🥹.
In this day and age, it's no wonder the prices have gone up a bit 🥲I'll have to savor and drink slowly for that 😌 I know I'm forgetting 🤣.

Good morning, Jay & Nobby.
I often go to Ebisu restaurant because it is close to my office and the food is reasonable and tasty.
This time I paid 6,000 yen for the yakitori course plus all-you-can-drink.
I totally forgot to post this😅
I bought and drank a bottle of Saga's Koei Kiku!
There are many good sake from Saga, and this one was also delicious, with a slight effervescence, good flavor and a clean aftertaste!
Saga is another place I'd like to visit once 😄.
Place of purchase: Yajima Sake Shop

Sake that gave a very different impression after opening the bottle
After opening the bottle, I was confused by the bitter aftertaste, which was different from what I had heard, but after a few days, the taste changed considerably!
The taste like ripe banana came to the forefront and it became a very sweet sake.
We received our sixth bottle of Snow Crescent in total.
Despite the variations in rice, Snow Crescent probably tops the list in terms of the number of bottles of the same sake.
It was followed by Sanndo and Sengoku Kabutomushi, which I drank like an obsessive last summer.
Snow Crescent was again incredibly grapefruity.
A superb grapefruit squash made from rice and water. It is a light, shwashy, slightly cloudy wine with fresh sweetness and acidity. The bitter taste and the astringent nuance of Kouei Chrysanthemum are added to complete the unique grapefruit flavor.
Last year, we had the Sagabiyori and Yuyamanishiki versions, but we still think the Yamadanishiki is the most delicious. Snow Crescent will no longer be available after the summer, so I will buy some more of the Yamadanishiki version to keep in stock.
😀😀😀😀
Not like the Koei Chrysanthemum I've had in the past.
It's a little different from the Kouei Chrysanthemum I've had.
Less acidity, more sweetness?
This one is good too!
