8 points (Wife: 8 points)
Ingredients : Yamadanishiki
Rice Polishing Ratio : Undisclosed
Alcohol content : 14
Purchased from: One of the bottles prepared by my wife's brother
Yogurt-like top with a hint of grapefruit
The same gentle aroma as on the top, the modest sweetness and soft rice flavor spread with a lactic acid-like acidity and a gaseous sensation, and it quickly finishes with a slight bitterness that rises from the mid-palate.
It has a crisp impression that goes well with meals and is also refreshingly delicious on its own.
It went well with fried chicken and surimi at Taguchi Tempura, a long-established restaurant in Motegi, which we had after New Year's Eve Soba Noodles.
Good evening Masaaki Sapporo-san!
I'd like to try Fukkai, but I don't see it very often, but it looks delicious...and nigori...I'll have to look for it 💪.
I hope to see you again next year ✨.

It's the end of the year, so we thought we'd have a blessed drink.
I'll have a glass of Fukkai-san.
Actually, this is the first time for me to drink at home.
And yet, it's an adventure to start with nigori...
Bon appétit!
The opening of the bottle is a nice and vigorous shupo. ☺️
The mouthfeel is like lemon 🍋. This is lemon squash with a hint of nigori.
Next comes the rice🌾 flavor! At the end it has a nice sharpness. The bitterness is also a bit like lemon squash. It's perfect for today's fried food.
Good morning, Kosuke 😃.
Looking for good fortune😊Congratulations on Fukkai's first house drink ㊗️ 🎉.
Nigorin squash and fried food is perfect👍Good start of the year 🤗
Thank you, Dr. Jay & Nobby 😊The Fukkai nigori is too good, and the shugou bottle was emptied faster than the standard work 1.5h. We will open the Kangiku series at the beginning of the year for a gathering of relatives♪
Drinking at home 🎵🎵🎶
A series of drinks I've never had before 😆.
Fukkai is a new brand at the liquor store I often go to!
What's the first dry brand you've ever had? I don't know if you can taste the true flavor😅.
The bottle was opened with a little pop 🍾.
The aroma smells like alcohol.
The aroma smells of alcohol 🍾 The dryness is moderate, dry and sweet.
It tastes like pear and rice, which are not yet ready to be eaten 🍈.
After a little time in the glass, you can drink it like water. Be careful not to drink too much: ⚠️
I'll try it with fried chicken (Kentucky on 28th 🐓 day) tomorrow!
Aochan, good evening 😃I have never seen Fukkai, this dry one! I drank the blue label Yamadanishiki before, but this one is dry and drinkable like water, I'm curious 😆Mr. Nishimura, (right?) I'll try to show up if I get a chance 🤔.
Good evening, Mr. Wakata. ♪
I actually went to buy the blue label but it was sold out 😭 I had a tasting flea so I tasted the blue label and it was delicious.
Maybe the water 🟰 taste is 🈚️ 😆.
If you come to Kyoto, please visit Takimoto and Nishimura 😊.
Hi Ao 😃
I like the series I've never had 🤗Fukkai's dry! I've been curious about this one since it came up on social media: ‼️ I'd like to try it with fried chicken 😋.
Hi Ao 🐦!
Congratulations on getting Fukkai 🎉But it's so popular 😳I can't believe they didn't have the blue label anymore💦I see more stores are carrying it! I'll try to drink it when I find it too 😊.
Good evening, Ponchan 🦉.
I'm glad you can now buy Fukkai ‼️
But there are more brands that you can't buy anymore because Yamamoto-san is gone 😭.
Please try it 😊 with fried chicken 🍗😊.
Second drink at the standing Koriki
Fukkai UMINARI
It's been a long time since I've had Fukkai!
The label on the back said it was dry, but I didn't feel it was too spicy with a strong umami flavor 😊.
It was really good with oysters in oil 🥰.
It also went well with fried chicken 😋.
The manager of Koriki and RIKI was running the restaurant as a one-man operation, which was something new for me 😁.
The staff came to help out during the meal, but it was the manager's younger brother 😳.
