I could only drink the last post I did on New Year's Day, so I'll bring home some sake for New Year's and enjoy it at home 😅.
First of all, here it is 💁.
Kamo Nishiki high brand ✨.
It's always exciting when you buy sake that comes with a box 😍.
I opened the bottle with high expectations 🍾.
The bottle seems to have been fire-aged, but it opens with a lively popping sound✨.
The aroma is hard to describe, but it's a fruity mix of various fruit aromas, green apple if I had to list them.
When you take a sip, you will feel a pleasantly energetic gasiness, followed by a sweetness and acidity reminiscent of a cider!
The nose has a strong apple aroma with a hint of pineapple and muscat.
The sweetness is not sticky, but smooth and elegant, and the umami spreads slowly with time.
The flavor spreads slowly over time. At the end, there is no bitterness or other unpleasant taste, and it fades out like water....
It's so good!
I'm convinced that the price is right 👍
The alcohol content is also low at 13%, so you won't get tired of drinking it at all 😋.
I was going to drink it slowly over time, but I almost finished it in one day😅.
Good evening, Mr. Chirsta!
Kamonishiki's high brand is a great way to make up for not being able to drink since New Year's 😍.
I'd like to try it someday too 😋.
Good morning, Chirsta 😃.
I am relieved to hear that you are feeling better: 😮💨
Kamo Nishiki's high brand ✨boxed is so luxurious, you can only buy it on special occasions 🥰The taste is worthy of it, it is indeed Kamo Nishiki: ❣️
Hi ma-ki 😃
I was going to take my time and drink it at home, but it was so good that I drank too much of it and ended up running out quickly😅.
It's quite pricey but it's definitely worth it👍
Hi HinaHanaMama 😃
It's a very special and extraordinary sake, I had to drink it slowly and carefully, but I couldn't resist and realized I had almost 1 gou left 😅... 😅
It's a great sake and deserves to be at the top in Niigata ✨.
Memorandum.
This one, the rightmost one in the photo, is Dewa Sanzan, a packaged sake with a definite taste.
I have forgotten the details because so much time has passed, but I remember it was a delicious sake with a fruity, gorgeous aroma and a sweet, straight taste. I wonder why I haven't seen this brand recently.
Freshly Shiboritate Nama-shu from 🏷️.
Koji: Yamadanishiki🌾Kake: Gohyakumangoku🌾 Sake🍶.
The top aroma is slightly sweet.
In the mouth, there is a hint of refreshing acidity and a clear sweetness typical of Ihyakumangoku.
It finishes with a slight astringency.
It is delicious with a great mouthfeel that is typical of Gohyakumangoku.
Next, I thought, "I haven't had a bottle of kafuda-zake lately," so here it is!
It is a light and dry sake with a sake strength of +8, which is different from the image of a package of sake. There is no sweetness at all!
Well, I don't think I'll choose this one if it tastes like this.
I think I'll just stick with Hakkaisan😅.
The bottle was opened on the three days of the week! Packed Sake Lipi from Niigata!
A bottle of trustworthy freshness and drinkability!
Transparent and medium-bodied! The aroma is rather light on the nose.
Cute 🍒 soda on the palate! (Is it because Dewa Tsanzan is Yamagata's sake rice?)
The sweet and sour taste is refreshing and fresh, and the finish is light and clean!
(Dewa Sanzan is made from Yamagata rice, so it's a good thing.) It's sweet, acidic, fresh, and finishes with a light, refreshing finish! It is still delicious!
I drank a chilled bottle of Akaban Omachi, a cargo tag sake from Kamo Nishiki Shuzo. I had never heard of this sake before. I asked the owner of the liquor store, "I like Saku, Hououmida, and Kido, so which sake has a similar taste?" He told me that he recommended this sake made with rice from Okayama, so I bought it.
This sake is delicious.
It is a sake with a crisp sensation in the mouth and a gorgeous daiginjo aroma. I would like to thank the owner of the liquor store. I recommend it to everyone.

🍶🤓.
The aroma is gorgeously fruity😊.
When I drank it, I could hardly taste the sweetness and as I continued drinking, the bitterness started to show its face.
The taste impression didn't change even with a meal 😊.
Beautiful ✨sake, light and dry.
I took a sip and found it dry and hard. At first I thought it might be hard to drink for me, as I prefer sweet sake, but it was refreshing and went well with Japanese food and other strong-flavored dishes during the year-end and New Year's holidays. The sake is very dry, with a sake strength of +8. It is dry, but when it hits your tongue, you can taste the umami and it is delicious with a nice finish ✨.
