Cankerina blue sapphire, Seigyoke Sweet and fruity taste with a hint of pineapple and le le leche. I bought only this one because I couldn't fit all 4 kinds. Mr. Yanagishita, the master brewer, originally worked as an aircraft mechanic for JAL at Narita Airport, but his attachment to his hometown of Chiba and his desire to "do something only I can do" led him to sake brewing. After joining Kangiku Meikozo in the beer brewing department, he was selected to be the toji (master brewer), despite his lack of experience, when the previous master brewer retired. He initially trained under his predecessor and is now in charge of sake brewing as a toji. The name "Kangiku" is said to have come from the appearance of Kangiku (chrysanthemums that bloom in winter), which bloom strongly and beautifully even in the coldest season.

Thank you Masaaki Sapporo-san. I learned a lot about Kangiku from the person who was drinking next to me before and became interested in it, so I started to look into it myself. I feel closer to the brewery when I know the toji-san.
