I opened this one, too, and I'll tell you what it tastes like in plain English.
"sour cemedine."
In general, I'd say it's angular: ⁉️
It's completely different from yellow lemon doo 🍋.
The alcohol content is 5 degrees, so I have to worry about storing it...
But I can't drink it as it is...
I'll leave it at room temperature for now 🍶-

Pasta with garlic, anchovies and tomatoes at dawn.
I paired it with a glass of wine and cold sake.
Cemedine goes well with my anchovy habit👍✨.
It's been 6 months and the cemedine still hasn't faded 🤣𐤔
It was a substitute for white wine 💕
⬇addendum (2025.08.22)
I drank it cold (room temperature) in a wine glass.
The cemedine feeling is diminished, but the acidity increases. w
It's like a certain expedition.
I'm not sure if it's because of the low alcohol content... 😱

Next is Kumezakura-san wolf 😁.
This label was so interesting I had to order it 😆.
It has a nice graininess that makes you feel warm 😁.
It's delicious 😊.
Kano, thank you for everything👍Congratulations on your 500 check-ins, even though you are late 🎊Congratulations on the impact of your label, I'm glad you enjoyed it 😋.
Masaaki Sapporo, thank you very much😊Thank you too 😊I was warming up at a restaurant specializing in hot sake this day 😁I miss hot sake this time of year 😆.
Different from recent Kume-zakura, H28by.
It is colored with wild golden yellow.
The aroma of maturity is strong.
Mushrooms, bananas, black tea, and maybe pineapple. Something like that.
It is firmly astringent at room temperature. The sweetness is at the bottom, but the astringency is all over the place. It has a flavor that makes you want to warm it up. It's a heated sake!
I'm going to heat it up.
I knew I had to warm it up.
It has sweetness and richness, but it's dry. I'd like to drink this at a higher temperature. It's interesting because it has a beautiful sharpness once it's warmed up.
It might have been even better in the summer. It is interesting to see how Kume-Zakura has evolved from here to what it is today.
Room temperature. It is cold, though, so it is quite cold. It is full of acidity and richness, easy to drink and yet robust. Well, it's good, isn't it?
Cluster amaryllis seems to be a higanbana.
The aroma is a bit peculiar. It has a strange taste, a mixture of sourness, astringency, and softness. Not bad.
I ordered it because it was on the hot water in my eyes as soda with sake.
Hmm! It's a normal tasty lemon sour! Though it has a cloudy sake-like harshness and a faint aroma.
At any rate, it is delicious.
Polishing ratio 50%. Is it actually a stiff sake?
My first calcis.
I saw that the name is a combination of calpis and catharsis, but I wonder if it's true.
I've never had fresh and this is my first calcis.
It has a light color of golden yellow.
The aroma is vinegar. I have smelled it before, but I can't remember. What is it? Sweet and sour aroma. Also, there is a graininess.
At room temperature, it's delicious. It is not sake. It has a pleasant sweet and sour taste, and the alcohol content is low, so you can drink it smoothly. It looks good with ice, and it would be interesting to drink it with milk.
Warm it up.
The sweetness and sourness make it a normal tasting sake. It also feels good for your health.
I'd rather drink it with food from a hot place than from a cold place. I think it would go well with meat carpaccio with pak choi.
It's interesting. I think this sake tastes better than the usual sweet sake, so I guess it is good as a regular sake.
Extremely sour!
The second sip is just as sour as the first... but as you continue drinking, you can also taste the sweetness and richness.
By the time you finish it, you might be addicted to it!
Acidity 18.8
*Repeat venting while sticking an ice pick or a wood pick through the top of the crown.
Cautionary note: This is a bad drink 😅If you look on the internet, you will see pictures of it exploding when you open the bottle.
If the acidity of rice vinegar is 4.3, I don't think it's even 18, but it's very sour.
It's like a sour French dressing if you eat it with chilled tomatoes.
