Nagayama Honke Brewery
Ki Junmai Honkaku Sparkling
Opened the bottle after opening and closing the lid several times 🍶.
Just the feeling of gas makes me excited😍.
Citrusy aroma with a hint of sourness
The gassy feeling adds to the freshness. The first sip is sweet and sour, light and dry. The bitterness comes a step later.
It is very smooth and the drink goes on and on.
Yamadanishiki produced in Ube, Yamaguchi Prefecture
Polishing ratio 50%.
Alcohol content 15
This is what I stopped posting.
I'm posting as I recall my notes😅
I found Ki at Sumino Sake Shop and bought it! This is my first bottle of Ki myself: ✨️
It tastes like a refined sweetness of rice, but without any strong pungency or bitterness.
I served it with a side dish that had a strong flavor, but I thought it would go better with a lighter side dish.
At any rate, I remember it was delicious 😋.
Thank you for the meal: ✨️
Elegant sweetness and acidity.
The umami of the rice is gentle and gradually becomes one.
Fresh and easy to drink from start to finish.

There are several stores that offer sake from all 47 prefectures in Japan (Okinawa's only Reimei is currently inactive in production), but I think I might like this Sake Yume, which has a pretty good selection.
Now, among such sake, Yamaguchi Prefecture.
Ki Special Junmai 60
It seems to be a standard sake, but the quality of Ki is still there. Pleasant acidity and rice flavor. It is a delicious sake with a pleasant mouthfeel.
Rice used: Yamadanishiki (Koji rice), Hachitanishiki (Kake rice)
Polishing ratio 60
