.
The pluminess that is typical of Koueikiku (personal review) is evident.
With a rice polishing ratio of 80%, it gives the impression of being heavier than Koumochi.
It has a body, but with an aftertaste that is not unpleasant. It is a sake that well expresses the merits of low rice polishing ratio!
Kouei Kiku: I love this sake so much.
Gekko is my favorite, but I also like Mikumo.
Now, Sky and others...
The ginjo aroma is nice.
Sweet and heavy, with acidity chasing after it.
This, this, this...
I can match my favorite sake with anything.
Nabe, oden, snacks, salads...
It went well with all of them!
I have to pace myself so that I can keep it for tomorrow and onwards!
Good evening, Mr. Yoshii 😃.
Koei Kiku is delicious 😋Kochira we had it over the weekend 🤗It's one of those delicious ones that's hard to leave for the next day😙.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌛.
I see you already drank it 😊 It was a balanced drink that I liked very much. I did my best to keep it to see how the taste changed...
🌙We rely on Sake Crocodile for new information.
Now that I got the information about the new brand of Kouei Kiku released, I have to go buy it 🚙💨

Citrus fruits like grapefruit and tangerine 🍊.
Grapes🍇 are also somewhat
Not much scent.
Minimal acidity and bitterness to make you feel refreshed.
No acidity that makes it burn💥.
Quite mature impression.
Ah, but I guess it's designed to be drunk every day.
I think it's designed so that you don't get tired of drinking it.
Perfectly stable
It was delicious 😋😋😋
Thanks for the food 🎶🎶.
This new genre of sake tastes like grape juice and is different from both sake and wine. It is recommended as an entry point for those who do not drink sake.
Sake snacks include seared barracuda, ankimo, and shigureni simmered bonito.
Friday was a business trip to Kobe: ‼️
But... a day trip 😫.
I left home at 6:30am🌅 and took the Shinkansen 🚅 from Tohoku to Tokaido and arrived at Sumiyoshi station before 12pm! I didn't have much time, so I went to Kyushu Ramen in front of the station to fill up on ramen and then headed to my destination, Rokko Island 🚕 On the way, a cab driver told me there were Hakutsuru and Kikumasamune sake breweries 🤩 I passed them on my way back 🥲.
After that I worked for about 4 hours 😅I went home before I could stop by a liquor store 😅(I wanted to buy Senzuke 😢) I was also working 💻 on the bullet train on the way home, so I didn't drink ☹️
It was after 9pm when I got home 🌃I was tired so I decided to have a light drink😮💨 and opened this one‼️ for the first time in a week since the prefectural meeting 😅I met you for the first time 🤗Harumi from Kohyeikiku.
I'll make love to you
The aroma is something citrus 🤔.
I had originally planned to accompany Nobby on this trip to Kobe for a night or two 😄, but due to a variety of conflicting circumstances, we had to postpone it 🥲.
But I felt that Kansai is very close, so I would like to visit again next time 😊.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😃.
Thanks for your one-day business trip to Kobe: 🙇♂️
I'd consider a set of business trip = stopover at a liquor store or brewery too, but I feel like I'm missing out without it 😅.
Koei Kiku looks delicious too 😋.
The umami type 14 degrees seems easy to drink👍
Good evening Jay & Nobby😊.
Thank you for everything!
Thanks for your business trip.
Senzuke is a symbol of the recovery from the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake, we recommend it ✨.
If you have a chance 😊.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌙
Kobe day trip is not fun 😩.
I also remember a day trip to Osaka, hectic and tiring 😁.
Business trip = liquor store, bar, I'll be searching too 🔍.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😄Thanks for your hard work on the bullet business trip🙇♀️I'm sure the honored chrysanthemum must have soaked into your body after coming home exhausted ⁇ You worked hard, so you can work hard for the sake you can drink🍶 and the delicious drinks you can enjoy❣️
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😀
I see you were in Kansai 😀.
We would have loved to have had a drink with you, but it's a pity that it was a day trip 😅.
Koei Kiku is also a delicious sake, so we'd love to share it with you the next time we have the chance 😀.
Jay & Nobby, thank you for your business trip to Kobe! The Shinkansen is an easy way to travel, but it is very tiring, isn't it? And even more so if it's a day trip! I've never seen this one before!
I've never seen this Koei Chrysanthemum before! I'm very curious...! 👀💓
Good evening, Jay & Nobby.
I see you were in Kobe on a business trip 🚆.
It sounds like you had a very busy business trip, so Osaka was a no-brainer for you 😁✨✨.
Koueikiku, I haven't tried this one, but I'm intrigued by the refreshing taste 😊.
Jay & Nobby Good evening! It was a tough day trip to Kobe on business (tears) 😊.
Kouei Chrysanthemum Harumi! There are many kinds of Koei Chrysanthemum, but you can't go wrong!
Jay & Nobby, good evening😄I often tag along with my husband when he goes on business trips...because the travel expenses are only for one person... 😚 There are many delicious looking sake in Kansai too!
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😃.
I see you were in Kobe 😳.
Too bad, if you had told us, we would have delivered just Senzuke's Orikarami Unfiltered Nama Sake to Shin-Kobe station 😌🍶.
Kansai is far and near, please come again 🚅😊.
Mr. Jay & Mrs. Nobby
Good evening...
It was a near miss in Kansai 🤣.
I didn't have time for a liquor store night either😅
This Koei Kiku! I have it in the fridge ready to go 😘I can only hope after reading the repo that it will be instant deliciousness 😁.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😃.
That was a tough day trip from Tochigi to Kobe 💦.
The exhilarating part of Koei chrysanthemum certainly has an impact, doesn't it?
There are many good places to visit in western Japan as well, I hope you can take your time this time ✨.
Jay & Nobby, good evening 🌃
Thank you for your one-day business trip 🙇.
Please let us know if you would like to order Senzuke or any other Hyogo sake 🤗.
Good morning, Jay & Nobby 😃 Hey, welcome to Kansai! Thanks for the one-day business trip 💦 I haven't tasted the Koei Chrysanthemum here, I'd like to meet the blink-and-you'll-miss-it taste too 😆 Please come back slowly this time 😊.
Hi Manachie 😃
I used Ibaraki airport ✈️ last year on my trip from Hiroshima to Osaka! Free parking is great 👍I hope you guys 👋 use Ibaraki airport 🤗.
I hope this is ok 😆.
Hi shinsaku3😃!
Yes 😩I went all the way there and couldn't even buy a bottle of local sake 😓Suruji at 14 degrees was perfect to take away the fatigue of traveling 🤗.
Hi HinaHanaMama 😃
Thank you so much 😊I lined up with Nobby about not being able to drink even on the bullet train and we'll have a drink when I get home! I was shaken to my core 🥹.
Hi soumacho 😃
I hadn't been to Kansai since my J&N sake drinking trip last October 🤔I hope to visit you again next time 🤗 refreshing Koei Kiku! It was too good 😙.
Hi Wakata 😃
I wish we could have spent more time in Kansai instead of taking a day trip 😢 We also saw Koei chrysanthemum for the first time! It's delicious 😋We will visit again 🤗
Jay and Nobby, good evening 😁.
You are leaving at 6:30am for a day trip 😭Thanks for your time 👌.
I haven't had a drink in a long time 😅
I can't make it to Kobe but please let me know if you're ever in Kyoto on business 😁.
Even if it's not alcohol 🍜😁.
Good evening, Ao-chan 😃.
I think it's hard to make a day trip after all 😓I'd like to go on another Kansai tour again 🤗.
I recommend Kochira's Koei Chrysanthemum for a refreshing treat 😋.
Dear SAKE Mastes
Thank you for your one-day business trip. I once took a one-day business trip to Gunma, but I was made to work until the regular time, so I think it is a good place to work if you only need 4 hours.
I was the mouth of Sensuke.
Good morning, Mr. Shirowama 😃.
It's true that my current company is a good place to work 👍but it's tiring 😅I'd like to have a drink so that I can be Senzuke's mouth 😙.
Hi Jay & Nobby 🐦.
I see you made a day trip to Kobe 😳 must have been a long way to take the bullet train 💦 thanks for your time 😊.
Your new honored chrysanthemum looks delicious!
We'd love to hear from you and Nobby when you come to stay with us 😉.
Gorgeous aroma reminiscent of golden osmanthus
Characterized by mild sweetness, umami and acidity
Although acidity can be felt, it is not overpowering and easy to drink.
A slight bitterness finishes it off.
It goes well with soupy stews such as mizutaki and motsu nabe.
Surprisingly, it may also be served with gratin and stew.
After Tasake, I opened a bottle of Koei Kiku! I could feel the acidity and it was delicious! Koei-Kiku is delicious no matter what you drink!
We finished drinking at home, feeling pretty good and drunk!
(I was a little heavy this morning.)
