June 3, 2023 At Japanese Sake Satou in Matsuyama, Japan. I took a new employee to my favorite restaurant to drinking sake. The last and seventh drink of the day was Koei Kiku Tsukishita Muyori. It is a mellow, sweet and delicious sake, easy to drink easy to drink without feeling the alcohol content. It is easy to drink without feeling alcohol content. It was delicious with grilled sea eel and I enjoyed it with grilled sea eel and tanzaku yam.

I worked hard, so I opened a bottle of Snoclet followed by this one. Sweet, good, a little sourness, bitterness, and a bit of gusto there. Awesome ‼️ I like it better than Snoclet. I'm honored Chrysanthemum, I'll keep chasing it, even if it costs more for shipping: ‼️

When the bottle is opened, bam! As expected...it's a fresh and fruity aroma...and the mouthfeel is fresh, sweet, and bitter...with a hint of sourness. I'm sipping it with seared sea bream, sea bream, and seared Spanish mackerel as snacks...a little...sweet...but delicious...(^^)

I still had some Shinshu Kamerei left over from last night's opening, but decided to open a slightly fatter bottle of Kouei Kiku Merry Crescent for refrigerator convenience 😋. Delicious ‼️ It was less schwarzy than the Snow Crescent we drank the other day 😚. The sound when opening the bottle was also subdued 🍾.

Koei Chrysanthemum is quite modern, but this is quite classical. I believe it was a year-round product, so I wonder if that is why they made it easy to drink on a daily basis and match it with meals. This is the image I had in mind. It tastes good, but if you drink it with the expectation of an ordinary Kouei Kiku, it may not be what you are looking for.

We received Noon Crescent from Koei Kiku. This is the last summer sake in stock before December. Noon Crescent was so delicious that we purchased three bottles in total. This is the last bottle. Just as I opened the bottle, the cork popped with a loud pop. The bubbles are so effervescent that it takes a few minutes for the bubbles to subside. When I poured it into a glass, it was sparkling and shiny. It is fresh, fruity, sweet, but light and refreshing. There is plenty of umami in the softness of the light nigori. I think Noon Crescent may be the best hit of the year for me personally.

Good morning, Hori 😃 This is a perfect place to start the summer sake! We had it too and it's really good 😃‼️ We can see why you bought 3 bottles 🤗.

Thanks for your comments, Jay & Nobby 😊. You can enjoy your favorite honored chrysanthemum all year round with Noon in the summer and Snow in the winter 🌙. I see you also got the Christmas label Merry Crescents this year🎄.
