Smooth on the palate. and a firm sweetness. The freshness that only unpasteurized sake can provide. As the label says, "sparkle degree MAX". It is a perfect taste for summer. It is made from Omachi rice grown in Okayama and polished to 50%. The alcohol content is 17 degrees.

This is the "3000" Sanzen Aroma Special Junmai Sake Omachi Hi-ire, which I received from SakeShop Kairindo through their Twitter sweepstakes. It is a delicious sake with a mild but gorgeous aroma and a robust flavor 🍶😋.

“小さな酒蔵”から“強い組織”へ――六代目蔵元が挑む攻めの経営 - 岡山県・菊池酒造 | SAKE Street | プロも愛読の日本酒メディア

「燦然（さんぜん）」「木村式 奇跡のお酒」で知られる岡山県・菊池酒造はこれまで、五代目蔵元の菊池東（とう）さんが蔵元杜氏として酒造りをけん引。大吟醸、吟醸クラスの商品を中心に根強いファンを獲得してきました。 東さんの長男・大輔さんは、蔵に帰った2010（平成22）年から国内外の市場に販路を拡大するなど営業面の強化に奔走。蔵内の設備や体制面の整備にも力を入れ、売り上げの拡大に貢献するとともにブランド力の強化にも尽くしています。 そして2023（令和5）年9月には大輔さんが代表取締役に就任。東さんは会長に就くとともに、引き続き杜氏を兼任する形で今酒造年度を迎えました。今後の動向が注目される中、大輔さんは六代目としてどんな蔵の未来像を描き、経営していくのでしょうか。これまでの軌跡とともに紹介します。SAKE Street | プロも愛読の日本酒メディア

Kyoto Takashimaya Sake Festival ㉒ Booth of Kikuchi Sake Brewery of Sanzen, Okayama Prefecture. I had previously tasted the "Kimura-style Miracle Sake" draft, which was delicious, so I tasted the Sanzen brand. ◉Shune Yamahai Junmai Omachi Ichikatsuhara Sake The first time I tasted the Yamahai, I was told "You went for the Omachi Yamahai out of the blue, didn't you? I tasted it while being told that it had been stored fresh for one summer and then left to mature for a year. It's a bit like a "hiyaoroshi" sake, but with less of a yamahai feel. It has less Yamahai, but combined with the richness of Omachi, it has a unique and peculiar taste. ◉Tsanzen Junmai Omachi Unfiltered Nama-shu Freshly opened and ready to drink. It is clear and slightly mellow, with a slight gasiness, and has a standard Omachi character. The alcohol content is 18%. ◉Tsanzen Junmai Daiginjo Yamadanishiki 50 Nama-nihon At 17.5% alc. it has a nice mouthfeel. The body is rich and clean and deliciously umami. It has a full-bodied taste with a beautiful umami flavor. Okayama Prefecture is the second largest producer of Yamada-Nishiki. It is difficult to polish rice to 35% Omachi, so Yamada-Nishiki is used. The price of sake rice itself is set to rise, and in Niigata and other prefectures, the price of Gohyakumangoku is low, making it difficult to secure the sake rice itself as more and more farmers are producing rice. Sake production is 700-800 koku.

Home drinking. I bought it as a souvenir for myself when I went back home. It's a soft and fluffy drink. It's good with bonito tataki! I want to support the Kimura method of agrichemical-free farming!

Next is the "Miracle Sake" in the center. It is clear and light, a complete change from the previous one. It is tangy and dry with a slight accent of sweetness. The astringent taste finishes with a sharp end. Because it is so pure and fresh, you can also taste the deliciousness of the rice, making it a great all-around wine!

First issue Try a different liquor store. Buy a brand you've never bought before! It's like buying a CD jacket. As for the smell, it's fruity. It's not as heavy as Takachiyo. When you put it in your mouth It has a tangy taste on the tongue, and When you drink it, it has a slight sweetness. The feeling that lingers in the back of your throat more bitter than spicy? How mild will it be on the second day?
