Drinking after a long time. This is the fourth time I've had Snow Crescent.
The last time I drank it was Yuyamanishiki, but this time it's Yamada Nishiki.
I see from past posts that this is the 3rd time I've had Yamadanishiki 😅.
It's freshly opened so it's really shwashy!
Sweet, tasty, bitter, acidic, a bit apple-like.
It tastes like Koueikiku!
Superior clarity...Slightly acidic and sweet tastes dance in the mouth.
Mixed...Perhaps because the alcohol content is slightly low at 13°...the sweetness is more pronounced with an increased sense of clarity.
Merry Christmas 🎄 a little bit early!
We will open today because it is a weekday this year 🎉.
Speaking of Christmas, I remember my parents used to say "Merry suffering", which is a self-deprecating gag nowadays.
Now that I'm a parent, I think I understand this in a financial sense😅.
Well, that's enough for now, let's get down to business!

Unlike the usual acidity, the sweetness is much gentler.
I have an impression that the word ''dusty'' is perfect for the taste.
May happiness reach people all over the world😄.
It was delicious 😋😋😋😋.
Thanks for the food🎶🎶.
Good morning, sake-loving land surveyor 😃.
Our kids have flown the nest 🪽 and Christmas 🎄 has transformed into a normal day for drinking 🍶😆.
Kochira Kouei Kouko's new one! I'd love to have a drink and get a hot drink. ☺️
In the mouth with a gaseous sensation that seems to be about to blow out, it's popping with intensity.
It has a clean acidity and a sweet and sour taste like a fresh apple.
This is delicious in its own right, but the sweetness becomes more pronounced and banana-like as the gas is released.
We received a Merry Crescent from Koei Chrysanthemum.
This is my favorite Koei Kiku Christmas label.
It's a new product released for the first time this year.
The label depicts Santa Claus riding in a sleigh with a bottle of sake.
My stockpile has grown so large that I am chronically late in drinking seasonal sake, but I try to be on time for these events.
This Merry Crescent was opened 17 days after purchase, which is unusually early for me.
I was scared to open the bottle because of the warning tag, so the bottle did not pop, but I could feel the gas pressure in the bottle.
When poured into a glass, a pleasant bubbly foam appeared.
The taste has juicy apple nuances.
It has a good degree of ooziness and a rich flavor.
Although not as sparkling as a sparkling wine, it has a slightly carbonated gasiness, making it easy to pair with Western-style meals such as carpaccio and roast beef.
This is a perfect bottle for a Christmas party.
Good morning, Hori 😃.
Timely Hori Chrysanthemum's new 🎄‼️
I haven't bought it because I thought it might be too sweet 😅. I haven't bought it 😅I guess it's not that sweet? Looks delicious 😋.
The aroma is somewhat mild, but reminiscent of apples.
The gaseous mouthfeel is followed by a soft nigori derived rice flavor and sweetness. The acidity at the end, typical of Kouei-Kiku, is moderate, with a lingering bitterness, and the low alcohol content and gasiness make for a light and refreshing finish.
I still prefer Haro's Oumachi the best in Koei Kiku.
However, I found the 2024 to be not that much to my liking.
I was a little concerned about the bitterness, which is always the best balance.
I am looking forward to the 2025.
Sunburst for the second month in a row.
I drank a lot this year. Thank you, Kouei Kiku.
I'm sure I'll be drinking during the New Year's holidays, too, lol.
I'm going to buy 5 bottles for the 30th to the 3rd, but what should I drink?
Daimine, Yukino Kayasha, Koei-Kiku, Kunchou...after all, it's the same as usual...
🍶🤓.
I haven't had snocre since last spring✨
As soon as I weakened my hold on the cork a bit, it popped 😅.
Took a sip before the oli went up.
Light alcohol, apple-like aroma, and a shwashy, clean taste 👌.
Mix it up, beautiful haze and a little fluffy rice 😊.
Perfect balance with the acidity lurking in the back 🤤.
Quart bottle, gone in 2 hours😳
Delicious sake to drink with excitement🤗🤗
The concept of Saga's sake brewery is easy to understand: the first sip is clear and tasty.
The first sip is clear and tasty, but it has a distinct sake smell, which can be detected when drinking it in the hiya. The instructions say to drink it cold, at no more than 5 degrees Celsius. That's right!
This sake brewery is one to keep an eye on for the time being!
