Gassy and tingling on the tongue, a sign of a favorite drink. Sweet, melon fruity taste.
At 13% alcohol by volume, it is easy to drink.

Before I get to the Golden Week post, I'm going to poke around for the ones I've been skipping.
I had Sky 2024 from Koei Kiku in January, so there you go.
As the name suggests, it was a refreshing sake!
Fresh citrusy aroma.
The freshness, which could be described as sour grapes, spread on the palate, and the taste was smart and well-balanced, with a good dryness.
It was exquisitely balanced and delicious. ❤️

ジェイ&ノビィ
It's finally here🙌One of the three summer liquors we never miss drinking every year! First up, here's the Dusk Orange 🍊‼️ Here's a look back at the past three J&N ratings 🤗
2022 MAJ taught us and we drank it for the first time in March "Zuppa umaimai" Two married couples twilight in delicious sake!
2023 "Uu~u~a~umai 😊" in August when I was about to give up on it
2024 Bought it in May, aiming for "mmmmmmayyyy😊".
This year, I'm excited and ready to try the Riedel glass....
I'll make love to you!
The aroma is sweet and fruity 😚.
What's that? But was it like this 🍊Bayarese orange ❓It seemed to have a bit more bitterness 🤔.
I've heard that if you drink it in a glass like this, you can smell the aroma more strongly and it tastes sweeter 🧐 so I tried to compare it with my usual sake glass 🤗.
I felt that the gugumebi tasted more bitter and sour afterwards, making it more flavorful and tasty 🤗☺️
I think the wide-mouth glass is better for those who want more orange 🍊 and sweetness 😅J&N's subjective opinion 😅
Japanese>English

Good morning, J &N. ☀️
I haven't had Koei Kiku for a long time, so I had to run out and buy some after seeing your review 🚙.
I didn't realize that the sake cup makes such a difference, that's helpful 📝.

Hi Jay & Nobby 😃Twilight Orange is one of the Bayalys 🍊 and Koei Chrysanthemums that I haven't had yet, so that's helpful ✨The different flavors of the sake cups are interesting too ‼️ I'll have to present that one as well to our stockist!
Japanese>English

Hi Jay & Nobby 😊Hello 😊You went to twilight for the third year in a row 🥳Oh, by the way, the sake cup certainly changed my impression of bitterness 🍶I drank it at a cherry blossom viewing and it was so sweet in a plastic cup 🤤Surely an international J&N standard✨.
Japanese>English

Hi Jay & Nobby!
Twilight Orange I was drinking it yesterday too 🎵
It's a really delicious drink 😋.
I see that you can change the flavor even more by changing the drinking vessel 😲.
I bet you two will love it 😊.

Riedel glass 🥂.

Kouei chrysanthemum is more acidic than sweet 🤔
I have to drink different kinds of chrysanthemums until I can talk about it 😍🥂.

Hi Jay & Nobby 🐦.
My first drink was in a wine glass, so it was very orangey and honored chrysanthemum? I'll try again with a gulping glass 💦😊.
I was so relieved when I imagined Nobby taking a picture of you holding it in both hands 😆.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌃😀
I've had about 6 different kinds of Honorary Chrysanthemum, but I haven't had this Dusk Orange 🍊😭I must drink it, especially if it's nominated for the J&N award every year 😁.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😃.
The twilight orange looks delicious 🍊.
My preference is for a wide mouth glass 😙.
In fact, I change my drinking vessel on a daily basis because it changes my eyes, nose and mouth on the same drink 😄.
Japanese>English
ヤスベェ
Good morning, Jay & Nobby 😀
It's true that the way you perceive the aroma changes depending on the glass, so sometimes your sense of taste is pulled by your sense of smell 🤣.
But that's only because it's inherently delicious😇.
Hope to see you at twilight again this year 🤣.

I didn't eat lunch today because I thought I would be able to go up for work in the afternoon, but it turned out to be late in the evening. I didn't eat lunch thinking that I would be able to come home after lunch, but it turned out to be late in the evening, so I had a late lunch after I got home.
Here's what I had for such a late lunch!
Kouei-Kiku by Kouei-Kiku Sake Brewery!
This time it was Dusk Orange 2025!
I got this at Takimoto on my way back from a day trip to Miyama Kayabuki-no-Sato with my parents.
I was looking forward to drinking this sake, as it had been reviewed as delicious by many people in Sakegawa!
So, let's have a saké right away!
First, the aroma. It has a refreshing and clean aroma.
In the mouth, it is very fruity.
You can definitely feel the orange flavor.
And the refreshing sweetness is irresistible!
So far, there is no bitterness or pungency, but it is very refreshing and sharp.
The lingering bitterness is even more refreshing.
Delicious~!
As other reviewers have said, it is a wonder how such a flavor can be created with sake ingredients!
The low alcohol content makes it very easy to drink, but it is also juicy and satisfying, making for a very satisfying drinking experience!

First time I opened a bottle of ‼️ Koei Kiku 🎉.
Found it at the first liquor store I happened to walk into 🙌
I've been wanting to try Koeikiku for a while 😍.
The fresh light blue 🩵 label of this Seikai was beautiful and attracted me so I bought it ❣️
I'll have a glass right away 🥂.
Not much of an aroma.
When you put it in your mouth, you will feel a gorgeous sweetness.
It is not gassy and the second half is very sharp.
The aftertaste is crisp and clean.
The water is clean and clear, with no harsh taste.
Oh~... 😳This is also delicious ❑! 😳this is also delicious😋😋😋.
It's kind of like a roller coaster🎢!
Just when you think your mouth is full of sweet and deliciousness, it goes off at breakneck speed, as if it's going to plummet all at once. ‼️
And the aftertaste is clean and crisp.
There is no unpleasant spiciness or bitterness, no strange alcohol taste, and it is easy to drink with low alcohol content. ✌️
I finished it in no time at all😆.
My husband was very excited and said he wanted to drink more!
It's not too sweet and the sharpness is perfect for oily food👌.
It's an excellent food wine that goes well with both fish and meat 🍶.
Wow, Koei Chrysanthemum has a very high level 🥰.
My husband seems to like it a lot.
I have one more favorite 🤩.
I recommend Koeikiku💕
