Monochrome and drink comparison😋 is your first Kenaiyama: ✨️
This one has a rich and calm aroma 😊.
Unlike Monochrome's lightness, this one gives the impression of a more robust rice flavor!
It has a stately atmosphere that makes me want to sit back and drink it on a weekend night. 🤔 It's getting cold today, so it's a relief to be surrounded by such a robust aroma 😌.
In the mouth, as expected, the dark umami spreads out with a bang and leaves a firm taste on the tongue that is unbearable to drink!
Compared to the Monochrome, which I drank at the same time, it has a full-bodied, deep sweetness that is more profound and powerful.
I am more of a smooth drinker, so I guess I prefer Monochrome.
This one was somehow richer 😊.
We opened a bottle of Monochrom, which I can only remember from last year. I opened a bottle of Monochrom that I can only remember: ‼️
The gorgeous fruity aroma reminds me of pears and muscats 😌.
I had this brand last year as well, and it seems clear and delicate. As the name "Monochrome" suggests, there is no extra color, and the appearance is somewhat sharp and serene. I am very pleased with the quality of this brand.
The piquant, light gaseous sensation quickly dissipates, followed by a refreshing sweetness and a clear, transparent umami flavor!
Compared to the "Kenaiyama" that we compared together, this one has a lighter, drier mouthfeel, with no cloying taste and excellent sharpness.
This clarity may be perfect for early autumn, when the lingering effects of summer are still lingering 🍁 I have not had this flavor again in a while, but it is still right in the middle of my tastes. It was too easy to drink and I ended up drinking too much 😂.
9.6
Fresh grapes on the nose.
In the mouth, it has a pleasantly sweet aroma with hints of rich sweetness, grapes, and rice. It finishes quickly with a slight acidity.
It has a slightly cloudy, alcoholic taste.
The muddy one was juicier and more to my liking, but this one has a high degree of perfection as well.
Kangiku and identity were opened 🎉.
My favorite Chrysanthemum 💕!
And the Discovery Series that hasn't ended yet😅!
The third bottle is now available in 💛label identity ❣️
The 💛label is So no Mai🌾.
Chiba So no Mai seems to be very common in supermarkets 🤔.
So let's have it now 🥂.
First, open the bottle.
Oops! Oops!
The cork suddenly blew out and hit the ceiling 💥.
Thank goodness nothing was on top...
The 💛label is very healthy! So be careful opening the bottle: ⚠️
The aroma is a little subdued, with a hint of chrysanthemum.
The sweetness on the palate is sweet, but rather refreshing and reserved.
The gasiness is strong, and the astringency starts to accentuate in the second half.
The finish is crisp and refreshing.
No pungency or bitterness.
This is also brilliant 😋😋😋😋.
Very easy to drink😍.
Maybe So no Mai 🌾 is just the taste of common people ☝️
Just the right amount of sweetness and umami, with a strong astringency, but the strong gasiness keeps it all together nicely, and it's delicious with a strange, refreshing feeling 🤩.
You've done it well again 🙌!
As expected from Kangiku 😘.
So far
🩵→💚→💛.
Only one more to go: ☝️
I guess it's a long way to come... 🤣
It's been a long time since I was a cold chrysanthemum mama 💖.
Hi Hina Hana Mama 😃.
I've forgotten about the Discovery series 🥰 I didn't know you hit the ceiling 😳 That's great! I guess it wasn't enough for HinaHanaMama if it was clear 🤔.
This is my first Denshogiku 😍.
I was lucky enough to get both the ogara-mi and the sumi-shu (that's what the sake shop said) this time 😭
This is said to be the most popular sake from Kangiku, and since I started my sake boom this year, I have been longing for this sake since I heard the name of it 😊.
Now, let's open the bottle 🎉.
It has a light spooniness to it.
Fruity, easily recognizable when you put your nose close to it ❤️
I felt pineapple✨.
First, I will take it without lees mixing.
When I take a sip, I feel light gas, fruity sweetness, and the aftertaste is bitter.
Hoh, is this the electric chrysanthemum?
Yeah, it's delicious😊.
For the second sip, turn it upside down and mix the lees.
Maybe it's my imagination, but the gas and taste seems to have become stronger.
I'm too excited to see the difference from the clear sake: ❤️
Good morning, Rurun!
Oh, you got both kinds of Denshogiku ⤴️ I'm jealous 😋!
I had a bottle of Sumi-shu last year and I remember it was very delicious 😋.
I hope you will enjoy comparing the two 🤗.
Hello ma-ki- sir 😊
Luckily I was able to get both bottles: ❤️
I'm so glad you enjoyed the clear sake so much ✨.
I'm looking forward to it even more 😊.
I will definitely enjoy this luxurious drinking comparison!
This year, I drank Hoshikai and then Aomi... I heard that there was another sake that imitated the sea, so I will definitely try that next year.
Conclusion! It is very easy to understand and delicious! The sweet and sour taste of sweet and sour that makes it easy to understand why Kangiku is so popular. I like it too!
The apple acidity is very well expressed and very tasty! I recently found out that I actually love it, even though I thought I didn't like applesauce. Thanks to the Amezure I drank before, I was able to clearly identify what is malic acid, and the complexity of sake made it clear that I had mixed up my perception of what was what. I will actively drink sake with malic acid from now on lol.
It is mainly sweet and sour with some umami. And it tastes very clear and delicious with little bitterness.
What is it about the taste that is as beautiful as the crystal clear sea, yet so easy to understand... Speaking of the sea in Chiba is Kujukuri, but I have never been there, so I am sorry that Okinawa came to mind from the taste lol!
Monochrome.
In early autumn, after the passing of midsummer, it colors the monochrome images that flow through your brain when you think of summer scenes.
The calm and gorgeous aroma and the indulgent, extremely rich sweetness and juiciness of the flavor will also color the drinker's mind 🍶.
The exterior is a silvery green crystal that is nearly transparent.
Fine bubbles of gas slightly stick to the glass.
The aroma is mildly refreshing.
Apricots, unripe bananas, white grape skins.
A faint volatile aroma adds to the freshness.
There is also a rich rice aroma, like freshly milled rice.
The texture is smooth and smooth.
Slight stimulation of gas.
The extremely rich sweetness overflows with a sense of indulgence.
It is just like a monochromatic landscape filled with rich colors.
The gentle and smooth acidity is very juicy, combined with the deep sweetness.
The chili sensation of the gas accents the balance just right.
There is also a delicious taste of rice in the tangy sweetness.
The bitter taste with a nice tightness peeks out at the end of the bottle and finishes off the palate.
The lingering aftertaste is long, leaving a slight bitterness and a very faint astringency on the tongue.
I drank a six-month ice-aged Monochrome this past March, and it was a bit sweeter and fresher than the Monochrome, and had an impression of having more color inside.
But I like both very much. ☺️
Hi Aladdin!
The other day I finally found a store in Kanazawa, Ishikawa prefecture, next door, that carries "Sono Kangiku".
I would like to try "Monochrome", but it seems difficult to get it this time, so I will try to get another spec: ✨️
Congratulations, Gyve 😁㊗️😁
Kangiku is one of my sake recommendations as I love sweet and tasty sake, so I'm glad you'll be able to drink it: ☺️
As for the future, I recommend "Seijitsu", which will be released around March, with its full flavor!
Let's try this new muddy sake
Kangiku's OCEAN99 -Shiroginoumi Snow Sea- Nigori unfiltered unpasteurized sake
This is the third time I've had this sake.
It's a seasonal tradition, isn't it?
Tomorrow, a similar new cloudy sake will be available again, so I made a reservation!
I've reserved a bottle to go with pineapple and this crispy shuwashu!
It's great!
This sake comparison was a showdown of Gohyakumangoku!
Freshly baked shellfish as usual. Shin-ko (pickled vegetables) for chopstick rest!
Let's drink a little more 🍶.
