You know this is your favorite drink when you take a sip⤴️
20% alcohol by volume, but you can't stop drinking it 😄.
Very easy to drink and a must have for nigori sake lovers ✨.
This is a definite repeat 👍
Sake I drank on a trip to Oita.
Sorry, it didn't leave much of an impression (sweat).
Maybe I was more into the food.
But maybe it was a taste that complemented the food, not a taste that got in the way of it.
Oita, Nagano, Shizuoka, and Akita were selected for comparison.
KUNCHO NEXT Junmai Ginjo Omachi Hi-ire
I would like to drink it with chicken sashimi.
Mizuo Junmai Ginjo
Easy to drink, but with a strong mineral taste, it goes well after a meal.
Shitaizumi Junmai Ginjo Ikumoto Radio Masamune
It is easy to drink like water, and recommended for beginners.
Junmai Ginjo Mansaku no Hana Summer Snowman
It has a slight bitterness, and is a seafood drinker's choice.
Souvenir from mother

Slightly sparkling light nigori sake 🍶.
The tanginess and sharpness like champagne is unbearable.
It is a sake that is easy to drink for women.
Purchased at Kunchou Sake Brewery on a one-day trip to Oita Prefecture.

Freshness spreads first in the mouth.
It is a dry sake, but a classy sake that quickly loses its aftertaste.
It is a beautiful tasting sake 🍶.
We will have it with Nakatsu Karaage 🐓.
Purchased at Kuncho Sake Brewery in Hita

It's just like amazake!
It has a little bit of a classic taste.
It's also gorgeous.
There is a warning about spurting, but it's just a tingling on the tongue, not to the point of shrieking.
Thickness is quite strong
The sake I wanted to try was at a restaurant I happened to walk into!
The refreshing slight effervescence matches the slight sweetness of the cloudy taste, making it a summer sake that I would like to drink chilled after taking a bath.

Oita ③.
Kuncho Sake Brewery in Hita City
I've bought Pink Nigori at Aeon in the past.
Pink nigori is sold at Yamaya and many other places.
Polishing ratio 60%, Kame-no-o 14%, Sake degree ±0, 1760 yen
The NEXT series seems to be raw sake.
Slightly sweet and crisp.
This is really delicious, but where can I buy it?
Is there a special distributor? Or is it distributed by a wholesaler?
bouken-san, excuse me here as well. I have not seen Kaorucho in Fukuoka either. It takes a little over an hour to get to the brewery from Fukuoka, so I haven't seen it except when I bought it at the brewery... 🍶 It is a historical brewery, but it is also a little modern and tasty.
The one I bought at the brewery on a trip to Hita and laid in the fridge.
Sake temperature 12 degrees Celsius
Slight aroma of banana.
The mouthfeel is refreshing.
It has a clean aftertaste without leaving much residue.
Very easy to drink
The label on the bottle looks like a souvenir from the old days - I wanted to warm it up, so I warmed it up to lukewarm.
Sourness comes out and lingers on the finish, but it's still refreshing - not too sweet, but not too dry - this is good!
Perfect for an evening drink!
And then, heated to 30 degrees Hyuga
Very smooth and easy to drink!
This is good, but it's lukewarm, so it will cool down if you don't drink it fast - but it was still good 😃.
