Saga Prefecture Koueikiku Sake Brewery
Koueikiku Kibo
Unfiltered unpasteurized sake
Alcohol content 16%.
Nearly colorless yellow with a sense of transparency.
The first impression of the aroma is elegant rice, the type of aroma I like lately!
Banana, muscat, black tea, white dumpling, chocolate, and a hint of caramel.
First impression of the taste is light and firm.
Mild sweetness, moderate acidity with a light effervescence, moderate bitterness.
Smooth balance with a good sense of maturity and a good lingering finish.
According to the brewer's information, it is "brewed with natural lactic acid bacteria," "pressed in spring, bottled, and then stored in ice for about six months" (information from the brewery), which is different from "hiyaoroshi," a sake made from "sake yeast with a natural yeast yeast base.
I heard that "幾望" means "almost full moon.
It is very enjoyable to drink it while thinking about whether it is related to that or not.
My personal image of Koueikiku is that there are a lot of sharp sake and the range to match with food is limited, but I think "Ikumochi" is an easy sake to match with food. It also looks delicious warmed up.
Today, I really enjoyed drinking it while biting into a "chikama".

Good morning, Mura909 😃.
Kouei Kiku Ikou and Cheikama 🤤I'm sure you'll be drinking a lot of alcohol after a lazy day: ☺️
Koei Kiku has released their first year-round product, Seikai (Sky), so I'm interested in that as well!
