My first calcis.
I saw that the name is a combination of calpis and catharsis, but I wonder if it's true.
I've never had fresh and this is my first calcis.
It has a light color of golden yellow.
The aroma is vinegar. I have smelled it before, but I can't remember. What is it? Sweet and sour aroma. Also, there is a graininess.
At room temperature, it's delicious. It is not sake. It has a pleasant sweet and sour taste, and the alcohol content is low, so you can drink it smoothly. It looks good with ice, and it would be interesting to drink it with milk.
Warm it up.
The sweetness and sourness make it a normal tasting sake. It also feels good for your health.
I'd rather drink it with food from a hot place than from a cold place. I think it would go well with meat carpaccio with pak choi.
It's interesting. I think this sake tastes better than the usual sweet sake, so I guess it is good as a regular sake.
Extremely sour!
The second sip is just as sour as the first... but as you continue drinking, you can also taste the sweetness and richness.
By the time you finish it, you might be addicted to it!
Acidity 18.8
*Repeat venting while sticking an ice pick or a wood pick through the top of the crown.
Cautionary note: This is a bad drink 😅If you look on the internet, you will see pictures of it exploding when you open the bottle.
If the acidity of rice vinegar is 4.3, I don't think it's even 18, but it's very sour.
It's like a sour French dressing if you eat it with chilled tomatoes.
Although it is not on the label, it is a sake yeast yeast yeast.
Slightly colored.
The nose is complex. Lactic acid, black tea, banana, and massilium.
Rich sweetness and flavor even at room temperature. Sourness, minerality and bitterness on the back palate. Delicious. It has a gentle flavor like a warmed, watered-down sake.
Warmed up.
Umamayumayumayumayumayumayum. The umami and richness of the flavor spread out more, and the dashi (Japanese soup stock) taste was great.
This is delicious! It could be watered down a bit more, but the balance is good!
6/10
I think this is the first time I've had sake from the Kumezakura Brewery.
I found out that they are a sake brewery in Tottori Prefecture, and that they are particular about their ingredients and also make beer and other beers.
The brand name "Tsuki ga Kirei desu" (The moon is beautiful) is also interesting.
The rice seems to be made in-house, and this one is made from Gohyakumangoku rice.
This sake has a rather rough rice taste.
It has a little bit of a peculiar taste, but it was soft and tasty as a sake.
This is a sake that should probably be heated up.
I would like to savor this sake at home.
R4BY was served warm. I forgot to take a picture, but the color is a light yellow. 70% polished, powerful, but with high acidity. I guess it is a sake made from sake yeast, though it is not stated.
Heated. The color is a little yellow. It has a mild nigori rice flavor, but the acidity from the sake yeast makes it crisp and clean, so it doesn't linger.
It says R4BY, to be bottled in June 2022, but isn't that impossible?
