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!
This year we compared it with Aizan's unfiltered unpasteurized sake!
Pork stew is also delicious 😋!

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 🐴🐴🐴🐴.
This is a winter-only product, with tailings falling down in the bottle like snow. It has a sweet taste like yogurt or Kamishinko, a good acidity, and almost no bitterness. It goes well with cheese and hot pot.
Polishing ratio: undisclosed Alcohol content: 13% Omachi
It would be better to open it at Christmas time, but it was postponed to the beginning of the new year. The bottle was opened with a bang, but not to the point of spilling, and the acidity and bitterness were combined with a sense of swishyness, making it delicious!
