Pre-farewell party! The number of sake friends will decrease from the company. After 5 is more painful than work. So this is Nigori. Isn't it one of the best Nigori? Is it because I'm drunk? It tasted just like the next one I drank.

Junmai🍶 new sake✨Yumeshizuku🌾. A momentary grass, quickly disappearing and refreshing sweet and spicy 😆. Pleasant acidity. The strength to take on spicy avocado🥑chanja too. Maybe it's rather versatile 🤔 Sea and @ Takadanobaba 20240131

I was attracted by the naming and label. It is a liqueur containing sake and plum wine. It is very sweet, like syrup for oyster ice. 1705 yen.

☀️ It has a clean, light taste. It has a slight sourness and a little carbonation🫧. The umami flavor comes through in the aftertaste. You can't see the face of the sake, but the umami seems to have a smug look on its face🥴. I took the liberty of thinking 😏.

January 14 is the first full moon of the year and the first full moon of January [Wolf Moon] 🐺🌕️ The day before, when my family and I gathered at my parents' house for dinner, we saw the almost full moon 🌝 that had begun to rise, so let's have a good tsukimi-zake (sake at the beginning) for another year of delicious tsukimi-zake 😁, so let's have a drink with the sake we chose 🍶. Kibotsuru Shinshu Junmai New Sake from "Kibotsuru" that Maru-san, bouken-san and many others have been raving about ✨. I tried it, but my local liquor store had it in stock and I couldn't resist getting it along with the other sakes 🥰. This time I'll be having it with the Tsuki no Oubai 😋. The aroma is full and slightly melon-like with a sweet rice aroma, a slight gasiness that you can't detect unless you focus on the tip of your tongue, a fresh and penetrating sweet umami, a crisp citrusy acidity, and a gentle sweet aftertaste at the end. Is this junmai sake? I'm sure I'll have to repeat this 🤩and I'd like to pursue other specs as well ✨. Awesome...no wonder Maru-san is so enthusiastic 😋. The third one is one that I found the moon starting to climb 📸. The fourth one is at the Fukui Gokoku Shrine, where I got a red seal and a good luck charm during my lunch break, which are only given on full and new moon days 😁 This time, I got the "watchful moon version". This year, too, I'm going to have a moon-viewing party at 🌕️🍶.

Hi Gyve 🐦. I was thinking last night while looking at the beautiful moon 😁. I couldn't get it because it wasn't in stock, but it's so sweet and delicious that I want to repeat 😻I have to go buy it even if it's far away💦.

Hi Jive, ☀️ I see you've started tsukimi sake again this year ☺️ but the third one is amazing, the moon is so bright 😳🌕🌕. I've never had Ki Mine Tsuru, but every time I see your review I want to try it 😝✨.

Good evening, Mr. Jive. It's the start of another year of moonshine 🎵. Your photos are beautiful ⤴️ and I like the clouds too 🌕️ I've been wondering about Kifotsuru ✨. It looks delicious in your review 🤤. I want to drink this sake😊

Good evening, Jive 😃. The amulet and red seal, awarded only on full and new moon days, is intoxicating 🍶. I feel romance in the collaboration between the classic label of Kiho Tsuru and the design of the amulet & red seal showing the changing moon age 🌒🌓🌔🌕🌖🌗🌘🌑.

Good morning, Jive 😃. First tsukimi sake at Hatsuki Mine Tsuru! That's a good start 🤗Kochira is one we would like to drink too 😋. I was looking at the sky, I like the red shimmering Mars near the beautiful white shining moon again 🥹.

Hi Pon-chan ☀☀☀☀. We were lucky to see the moon the day before as rain was forecast for the day of the full moon 😁. It was so good that I kept thinking [I want to drink another bottle of this] while drinking it, so I will try to follow it in the future✨.

Hello, Kotaro! I'll be chasing the real moon again this year and looking for [sake named after the moon] 😁. It was a very beautiful moon because it was winter, the air was clean and there were no clouds 🌝. If you find "Kibotsu Tsuru", please do ✨

Hello, ma-ki-chan! I'm off to a good start with this year's amulet and red seal, essential for a successful "tsukimi-shu-hajime" (beginning of tsukimi-shu) 🍶🌕️ I've heard rumors about Kibotsuru, but this was just the right taste for my taste buds ✨.

Second of a set of two 🎂As it's the eve of the festival, we chose 🍾-like drinks 😁. Second fermentation in bottle. Thin and cloudy with lots of microbubbles. A little dry and full of rice flavor. The slight bitterness at the end gives it a very good impression. Tomorrow is a non-drinking day, so I guess I'll have an after party on Saturday 🤔. I plan to open another bubbly on Saturday 🍾. Oh, my 30s are ending 😿!

This is a set of two bottles, one fire-brewed and one unpasteurized. I bought this for New Year's but missed the timing and opened it on a random day💦. I bought it at Icoma Sake Shop. I had always said I would buy it at the end of the year and wondered if they were sold out, but they had it 🙇. It's a junmai ginjo, but with a 50% milled rice ratio, it's a daiginjo spec. Fruity, muscat and citrus sweetness. It's 500ml and will be consumed in no time at all😇. I felt the unique flavor common to fire-aged Motomine Tsuru 🤔. I felt it was similar to Tsumugi -2024 参- though the specs are different. I'll have another bottle 🎂 at the eve of the festival😁.

Kibotsuru from Kiyama-cho, Saga Prefecture, the retro label is festive and appropriate for the New Year. The sake rice is Jinriki, and the freshness of the new sake is impressive with sweetness and a hint of acidity. The freshness is enhanced by the gas that can be felt on the tongue. It has a moderate sake-like taste, and is a delicious sake that will keep you coming back for more.

I had never had this Kibotsu Tsuru, so I tried to drink it, but I had already had it last year 😂. And for some reason I drank it a week after opening the bottle. It was a bit gassy and sweet. I thought I would probably prefer it right after opening the bottle after reading my post from last year 🤣. I felt my memory was deteriorating and I was getting old at the beginning of the year 😂.

Happy New Year 🎍. I wish you all the best this year 🙇. I'm spending New Year's Day relaxing with my daughter and her family, eating Osechi. New Year's sake is a new sake from Kibotsuru! I chose this one because the label looks like New Year's! First time drinking it. Slightly carbonated and a little shwashy! A little sweetness, freshness! Delicious chilled 😋. Dangerous at this pace, feels fattening 🤣.

Happy New Year! Last year I met a lot of sake😌. I hope to continue this year as well as the previous year. So I will post the two bottles I drank yesterday, December 31. The first bottle was Kibotsuru. It is an easy to drink sake with a slight gassy taste and moderate sweetness. 🙆‍♂️ I had heard the name Kifotsuru a lot recently, so I wanted to try this brand, but I wanted to try other sake as well: ☺️

I wasn't sure if I'd open it this week since I'm not feeling well, but I need to make sure I have an open space😅. I bought this at Ikoma too. Not too sweet, but sweet enough to feel it, and a little bit of gas. It has a fresh and light taste with a unique aftertaste that is typical of Kibotsu. It is extremely tasty!

Kihotsuru's special junmai. This brand seems to be popular these days. The color is slightly yellow. The initial aroma is sweet with a hint of fruity flavor. The overt aroma is more fruity, like pineapple or muscat. The mouthfeel is light and effervescent. The taste has a strong acidity and bitterness, but there is no lingering aftertaste and the impression is that it is not tiring to drink.
