Kihoturu基峰鹤 紬（TSUMUGI)
ヤスベェ
I still had some money left over for this year's hometown tax payment, so I decided to go all the way to Saga Prefecture, where I worked for a year during my last job 😀.
Then I remembered that Maru-san, who has always been a good friend of mine, was offering a comparison of Kibotsu Tsuru from Saga, and when I looked at the Kiyama-cho page, there it was 😇.
I immediately got a bottle of this Kihotsuru 😀.
We decided to open the first bottle of Kibotsuru that came to our house for the first time 😀.
As Maru-san said, it is a fruity and delicious sake 😀.
We paired it with Saga Beef Steak that we received as a return gift from Kiyama Town 😇.
Delicious 😇
The Saga Beef Steak had a strong sweet taste, but the Saga's Kihotsuru Sake matched it perfectly 😀 It was a great marriage 😀.
It was the best marriage 😀.

Good evening, Yasbay 😃.
The Saga Terroir Pairing Luxury Dinner 🥩🍶 that you took advantage of your hometown tax payment looks delicious 🤤.
Saga also has a lot of my favorite sake, so I'm sure I could drink a lot of it if I stayed here for a year, it's intoxicating 😊.

Good evening, Yasubeyesan 😁.
I've never seen Kiho Tsuru like this😍 I've never had Kiho Tsuru either 😍 I've never had Kiho Tsuru 😰 Sake from my hometown, my former place of work, meat and memories, looks delicious 😁.
I see you brought back some sweet potato kenpis 🙏😰🙏🙏😰.

Good evening, Yasubey🦉.
I see it's in Furusato 😳I really want it so I'll have to try and see it 😆 Saga beef is also a gorgeous steak: ❣️
I realized how important it is to have a pairing at the year-end party 😊.

Hi Aladdin, good evening 😀
Unfortunately, I drank only shochu back then and no sake at all😅.
When I returned to Kansai from Saga, my subordinate at the time brought me sake to commemorate Saga, but I don't remember the brand 🤣.

Ao, good evening 😀
Actually, I was in Saga for a year and I don't remember Ki Mine Tsuru's at all, which is a shame now that I think about it 😅.
By the way, Kaorin liked the sweet potato kempi so much that she took all the leftovers home 🤣.

Good evening, Pon-chan 😀
It seems that some sites have different tax benefits for the same hometown 😅.
I just found it on the Kiyama-cho page on the site I looked at, so I applied for it as soon as I could 😇.

Good evening, Maru-san 😀
I enjoyed it very much right after opening the bottle, but after hearing your story, I'm looking forward to this evening even more 😀.
It was a set of two bottles, so I am looking forward to when I will drink the other one 😀.

Anyway, it is sweet.
A little bitter at the end
I read a post that it is good if you let it sit for a while.
I'll wait and see how it goes for a while.

After a slight sweetness, spiciness follows. It is dry, but has a strong umami taste.
It was quite tasty.

I've tasted it before, but again.
It has a more robust umami than Yokoyama, which I prefer.
Basically, it's dry, but there's a little bit of sweetness and umami.
Surprised to see the sake strength of +10 😳
I thought it would be around +7.

Hi bouken 🐦.
I mentioned at Nisshimura's tasting that their Autumn Sake was delicious and they said this one might be a better match 😳 Sounds delicious! I had to stop because it was a bottle and I regretted avoiding it because it was super spicy💦.

Good evening, Pon-chan.
I'm not a fan of dry sake with strong umami, but this one was delicious dry sake with a lot of umami 😋.
I can understand why you would avoid it if you drink it at home😅.

Sweet aroma per se.
Good flavor, creeping up from the mid-palate, and integration.

I bought a batch of Motomine Tsuru and this is an extra pongee.
It is elegant, which is hard to believe that the rice is polished to 78%.
I wonder if it's because it's flat polished rice?
Well, there is no way my palate can tell the difference in rice polishing method😅.
Sweetness and acidity like a dry white wine, refreshing and quite good.
It's very refreshing and quite good.

Good morning, Maru 😃.
You are a master of your craft 🤗.
I like the unadorned label here! Dry white wine style is what we like 😍and J&N if we talk about elegant🌹😆All right 😄.

Hi Jay & Nobby 😊.
I can only find kefengtsuru in stores that I can't get to very often, so when I do, I buy the bomb 💸.
I think Kifengkaku, the dry type is more refined than the sweet and tasty type 🧐.

Hi Mal, good morning 🐥.
I saw this the other day and didn't buy it due to the fact that it was low milled... but it's ants 😭 really no hassle 😳‼️
If you buy in bulk you might be able to get a recommendation at the store 😊👍

Hi Pon 😊
The low milled rice these days tastes so clear that you can't tell unless you are told. This Kiho is no exception 🙌
You might think I'm an odd customer who buys in bulk even if it was made a year ago 🤣.

Ikema Sake Shop October Tasting (2)
Japan Famous Sake Association Limited Version
The rice is different from the regular version.
I thought it was sweeter than the Hiyoroshi for the distributors.
Like a light banana?
I wonder if it's the version for distributors that tastes like Motominekuru?
I also drank Kihotsuru Tsumugi San and Rairaku Yamadanishiki Nama-nishiki Nama-nihonshu, but I've already reviewed Kihotsuru and purchased Rairaku, so I'll skip those...
Rairaku was by far the most delicious sake at this tasting.

Purchased at Icoma Sake Shop. It was ras1😳
Fresh sweetness and slight effervescence. A little bitterness at the end. Very easy to drink hiyaoroshi. I think it will be delicious whether you are a sweet or dry drinker.
I wonder if the refreshing green apple and muscat-like nuance that I felt when I drank Tsumugi is characteristic of Motomine Tsuru.
When it is freshly opened, it is sweet and spicy enough to be drunk by itself, but after about 3 days, it turns into a fruity dry sake that is good during meals.

Good evening, bouken🌕.
Hiyayogoshi here looks delicious too 😋.
Thank you for the valuable information 🙇.
I am grateful that more and more stores are increasing where I can buy it.

Good evening, Mr. Maru.
I liked the fact that when it was freshly opened, it was slightly effervescent and you could enjoy the change in taste 😋The Meimon Shukai version was also drunk, so please try this one as well 🤗.

Kiho Tsuru bulk purchase, here comes the real deal.
The expectations are exploding with your posts on Sake-no-Wa.
However, the one I was able to buy was from the Japan Meimon Sake Kai 😆.
Like the summer sake, the Japan Meimon Sake Kai version of Kibotsuru is delicious from the first sip 😋.
The balance of sweetness, sourness and bitterness is like grapes🍇? Pear🍐? like a pear 🍐.
The second day is naturally tastier.
I still like it 😍Ki Feng Tsuru.

Hi Maru, good evening 😃.
Motomine Tsuru, the classic label is awesome ☺️ maybe the classic label is rather fitting for hiyaoroshi 😊.
Is the sake inside not too classic but moderately modern? I'd like to try this one too 🤤.

Good evening, Aladdin 🌕.
Kifotsuru is more impressive with the classic label👍.
I would love for Aladdin-san to try Kifotsuru. I would like to see an objective and accurate review of Kifotsuru by Aladdin-san: ‼️

Maru, good evening 🌛😋I was disappointed when I bought a new sake from the Meimon Shukai before because they said they didn't have it this time 😓It's more modern than it looks, so I'm moeing the gap 😁.

Good morning, Maru-san 😃.
Finally the real winner has arrived 🤗Kibotsuru who was our autumn sake champion last year😊Our sake rice was "Sagabiyori", but it is different from "Saganohana" 🤔I would like to try it 😙.

Hi Maru 😀
Well done on your big purchase of Ki Mine Tsuru 😀.
I heard that there was a case that you were disappointed because too much time had passed, but I have a good impression that the last one is very tasty 😀.
I haven't tried Kibotsuru yet, so I'd like to try it 😇.

Hi Maru 🐦.
The classic label is a true winner, isn't it? Still, it's amazing how good all the labels are ✨It's relatively easy to go buy them here, so I'll get them next time 😊👍.

Good evening, Nemuchi🌕.
I wonder what the prestigious sake association edition is for? Nowadays, there are some distributors' special orders 🧐.
I thought the hiyaoroshi from Motomine Tsuru was a well-balanced sake. May Nemuchi-san have a chance to meet you too 🙏.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌕.

Good evening, Yasubeyesan 🌕.
I got this hiyaoroshi from that famous store in the same hanpukai 🙌

Good evening, Pon-chan 🌕.
Ki Mine Tsuru, the Meimon Sake Kai is open to all tastes from the first day ‼️, but other than the Meimon Sake Kai, I recommend the second day onwards ☝️
Either way, it gets sweeter and darker as the days go by, which I think Pon-chan would like👍.
