Very tasty.
Notes of muscat, pear, tangerine, whey and chalk.
Strongly effervescent, orizzled, matte mouthfeel. Slightly sweet, rich flavor, clear acidity, clean minerality, and a citrusy bitter finish.
Serve with hot tofu, seared red squid sashimi, grilled bean sprouts and Kokufu Chinese cabbage, or vermicelli salad.

It's been a while since we had a 3 family drinking party.
Kouei Chrysanthemum has a wide variety,
Sunburst becomes an option about once a year.
The store staff told me to be careful not to blow out the bottle when opening it, so I carefully opened the bottle...
Somehow, it worked...
Now, the Snow Crescent that I was looking forward to!
More acidity than sweetness.
The balance of acidity is refreshing and easy to drink. The juicy taste of the oli (cucumber) mixed with the acidity makes it easy to drink and finish the bottle in rapid succession.
We look forward to enjoying it again next year at the end of the year!

My favorite Koei Kiku snoclet!
I have the impression that this year's new sake nigori is generally of a high level, and Snokure was very tasty as well.
On the first day of drinking, the flavor and sweetness were relatively restrained, and the sharpness of the new sake was emphasized. On the second day, the pear-like sweetness increases, and I personally prefer the second day because it is easier to drink.
So far this year's new sake has not been a disappointment, and I look forward to more in the future.
Thanks for the treat!
It's been a long time since I've had an honored chrysanthemum.
And this Seikai is really amazing!
It crushes everything I don't like about sake and I would recommend it to anyone.
The water is really tasty because of its low degree of alcohol content!
I was scared to open the bottle. It made a loud popping sound like sparkling wine.
The aroma is very gorgeous and fruity. It was very sweet and very tasty.
It's sweet and very tasty, but I don't feel like I'm drinking sake when it's this awash 💧.
I was able to get this sake again this year.
It seemed to be more tender and flavorful than last year. The flavor is gorgeous and the best part is that it spreads out as soon as you put it in your mouth. I thought to myself, "I knew this was the one," and put it back in the refrigerator. I know from past experience that it tastes the best after a few days of storage.
It is crisp yet sweet, with a slight sourness and bitterness in the aftertaste, and has so many different flavors that the word "umami" doesn't do it justice! Delicious!
New from Kouei Chrysanthemum✨
You can't help but drink it 😋.
A good combination of Anastasia green and twilight orange 🎶.
Great balance of sweet and sour and just the right amount of citrus 👍 as you said.
The other day, I went to buy a bottle of Snoqualmie.
I was informed that a limited edition Christmas sake called "Merry Crescent" was going to be released!
Of course, I immediately pre-ordered it: ✌️
Alcohol content 14
Ingredients rice, rice malt
Sake rice used: Yamadanishiki
Recently, I have noticed that I can't seem to be a big fan of nigori sake. However, I have come to realize that I like light nigori sake. This time, I would like to introduce a representative of such light nigori, Koei-Kiku Snow Crescent! How does it taste? Let's go!
What a gorgeous fruity aroma like a pear! Pitchy and gassy! A little hard brewing water, like the Wind Forest! Juicy, rich sweetness like a banana! Refreshing sourness like sudachi! It quietly disappears along with the astringent taste. Maybe I like the amount of nigori, which is about the same as light nigori. I haven't tried the three major nigori sakes, so I don't know yet. Will I be able to get it this season? Thanks again for the sake tonight!
Meh, it's refreshing and easy to drink.
It has a slight trace of the early days, but this is still the same.
It's like a cider and you can drink it in large gulps!
