Katsuma Junmai-shu
Katsikoma, a well-known hard-to-find sake, was purchased at Kimishimaya using points.
The nose has a slight muscat aroma.
In the mouth, the banana aroma, alcohol smell, gentle sweetness, richness, and umami of rice can be fully felt, and although the aftertaste is bitter, the overall balance is good, making it suitable as a food sake.
I tried drinking it at different temperatures, cold, room temperature, and warmed, but I think it is best served at room temperature.
However, while it is certainly delicious, I personally feel that it may be too much for its popularity to soar to that level.
The second bottle today is Katsuma. This is a sake that I had not been able to encounter for a long time. I was finally able to drink it at a kappo restaurant serving Toyama cuisine. It was as delicious as I expected. The taste is elegant and non-habitual, and I would like to drink this sake again.

Kiyoto
Kachikoma Kiyoto is a very small brewery, producing only a few hundred koku per year. The brewery is a "handmade" brewery where the brewer himself is involved in all processes.
The text on the label is by Mitsuo Ikeda, an artist who is a fan of Katsuma.
The origin of the name "Katsikoma" comes from Keisuke Seito, the first brewery owner, who returned from the Russo-Japanese War in 1906 (the year after the war ended) and opened a sake brewery in his hometown, Takaoka City, and named it "Katsikoma" to commemorate his victory in the war.
The intent of the piece is not known.
