The owner served it to me after I told him I like the habit. It was delicious. I want to drink it again because I was too drunk to remember much.

Sushi Ikko First visit after moving to Ginza 🍣The bachiko and this are the best I've ever had. I feel like they have improved since Sapporo! ✨
I really started drinking sake and the sashimi and sushi tastes twice as good! Sake is the best! ❤️🔥❤️🔥

I had a little drink at a restaurant where I sometimes go for lunch hamo-tendon when hamo is in season.
It was hot outside, but not sunny 🍶, so I heated it up.
The first aroma is sweet with a hint of rice straw and grain.
In the mouth, mild acidity is followed by mild rice flavor and sweetness with a hint of mirin and caramel.
It is a completely different sake from the current trend, but this kind of sake is also good.
When I was sipping it, it reminded me of the Asahi Kiku brewery surrounded by rice paddies and fields 😌.
I have a lot of bias for memories 😂.
It's also very cosy, about 2500 yen for a bottle.
Maybe I'll buy a bottle when it gets cooler 🤔.
It was delicious ✨🍶.

I enjoyed only the sound of the Yodogawa fireworks the day before 😅.
I used to be able to see them from my house 🎆.
The first half of the wine has a strong rice-like sweetness, but the second half is spicy with a short aftertaste. It's not sweet, but I like this type of sweetness.
I think it is a strong sake that can be aged for a long time.
On the third day, the sweetness becomes more pronounced, and it is my favorite type of sake.

Good evening bouken🍶.
That's the same Ayahana I was drinking in Nishinakasu 😊 Isn't it delicious 😋.
The brewer seems to keep the sake at room temperature and is very confident about the strength of the sake 😆.

Hello, Matsuchiyo-san ☀☀☀☀
It was delicious 😋.
I wonder what is the difference between hiragana and kanji 🤔
Not many stores seem to stock hiragana...
I felt this is a strong sake the moment I drank it 💪.

I asked the distributor of Asahi Kiku in Fukuoka about it and he said it was a limited time only label, but I didn't ask him more about it😅.
It's also good warmed up 🍶.

Strange taste. It's delicious, but it's not like any sake I've ever had (although it is sake). I guess my limited vocabulary comes out at times like this.

Rich flavor with a hint of milkyness.
When you drink it, you can feel the aroma of grains.
The alcohol gives a sharp taste at the end of drinking.
Perfect for warming up.

This is a comment from an amateur sake lover. The other day, I was recommended this sake at my favorite soba restaurant. It was exactly my kind of sake. It was masculine, strong, and dry. Although it was fire-aged, I could feel the strength of the alcohol. It is rare for me to drink sake from Kyushu, so I enjoyed it very much. It went well with the tempura at the soba restaurant, and the flavor was not overpowered! I am thankful that I was able to encounter such wonderful sake this evening as well! I was kind of a straight guy, despite the fact that I am a manly type of drinker.
I am thankful that I can drink good sake.

This is Asahi Kiku Arahashiri, a Fukuoka souvenir 🍶.
It's in a nice looking bottle, but it seems that during the new sake season, Fukuoka's sake is often served in these stoppered bottles.
I thought it was nice because it can be corked tightly so it is easy to reuse.
The initial aroma is slightly sweet, like cooked rice.
In the mouth, it has a mild sweet flavor with a slight astringency.
It finishes with a slight bitterness.
The astringency was a bit strong, but the sake was delicious with a calm and full flavor typical of Asahi Kiku ✨.

♥♥♥♥ As expected of a rough runner, it is super mellow, super thick, and if you drink it without knowing it, you won't recognize it as Asahi Kiku. It is tasty but thick!
