(🍶🍶🍶🍶🍶+ Sake cups purchased on my trip #4 This is my first time with Kenrishi ✨. The aroma is full of umami 🤔. On the palate, it has a caramel-like aroma, sweetness and depth of flavor, yet it's clean, crisp and easy to drink 🥰It's a delicious sake 🥳.

This time we changed things up a bit and bought a bottle of Kuromatsu Kenrishi❣️, which we fell in love with at first sight because of the shape of the bottle and the coolness of the label. I had it lukewarm with my homemade oden🍢🙏. It's also good that you can heat up the whole bottle in a ding-dong! It has a bit of an alcoholic aroma, but I don't mind it too much. It's just as spicy and easy to drink 😮❗️ It's like an evolution of the classic type of sake? and I enjoyed it with food 😚. The bottle is stylish and I'd like to keep a bottle in stock for when I want a little heated sake 👍 Thanks for the food!

My wife drank it at a party and said it was very tasty, so I was curious to know how it differed from regular Kenrishi. My wife wanted to drink it again, so I bought it. It tastes richer than regular Kembishi, and has a mellowness and thickening (atmosphere) like brown sugar, honey, or brandy. Kenrishi itself has a long history, so it is a sake with a flavor that is focused on aging, and Gokujo Kuromatsu Kenrishi is a sake with a long history that is deeply rooted in the flavor that people loved in the past. To put it another way, it is a good old traditional taste, so I don't think it will be popular in the modern age, but I can easily imagine that it has a strong fan base. I can imagine that there must be a strong fan base for this. But I respect it.

5th day of opening. The brewer's alcohol is very hot and spicy. It's 1000 yen for a 5-pack, so it might be very cost-effective.

Fourth day after opening the bottle. It's still bearable if it's cold sake, but it's so sharp and dry that I can't stop drinking it!

Second day of opening. The spiciness (is this aging?) is addictive. It's very addictive. However, I personally think it is better to drink it cold because the alcohol taste is too strong when it is warmed up to lukewarm or hot.

I bought it two days ago, but I didn't look closely at the date of manufacture and it was more than six months ago. I have no choice but to open it as soon as possible. It is full-bodied and has a nice firm spiciness!　This is good!

I bought it immediately when I saw it on sale at Direx for 2,000 yen per bottle! I've always preferred Kenrishi as a heated sake, but it's quite tasty chilled as well. It has just the right amount of maturity and sweetness, and the tanginess of the aluzoe is irresistible!

Drink it hot. The aroma is of koji mold, and the color is dark. Taste: koji sweetness and strong umami, a little bitterness at the end. Definitely a mellow type that goes well with heated sake.

Happy birthday 🎂, Ninomiya-kun and Kumiko Aso 🎉. And Minoru Suzuki, who was born on the same day, still do your best and stand in the ring. I'll keep standing too 😉. On such a day, I decided to have a hamo suki with a glass of Kenrishi, my father's favorite. It is truly rich and mature. I would call it the espresso of sake 👍. It's a celebratory sake for a young man who has yet to catch up with his father....

Today's pairing? I'm going to Paulaner for an Oktoberfest and then Kenrishi for a hot sake. For entrée, I'll have stir-fried lebanila and fried squid. After that, I'd like to finish it off with my favorite shellfish.

I wanted a single bottle. What the heck, I got it at Yodobashi.com at a fixed price with free shipping. I wondered if they make any money on free shipping. I immediately heated it up in the microwave. It was easy to drink, with a nice aged aroma, and I finished it in no time, but it was 17 degrees, so the drunkenness followed. Kenrishi can be found in all supermarkets, probably because it is in constant demand. It is a good sake. Tax included 380 (180ml)
