金猫魔
University of Tsukuba's sake, Kiri no Hana Junmai Ginjo.
In 2009, Professor Hiroo Uchiyama's laboratory at the Graduate School of Life and Environmental Sciences collected sake yeast isolated from paulownia flowers, which led to the production of the university-branded sake in cooperation with Raifuku Sake Brewery.
Paulownia is also used as the University of Tsukuba's emblem, "53 paulownia trees. I didn't know they could get sake yeast. That's amazing!
The color is slightly golden,
The aroma is fresh, apple-like, and floral,
It has sweetness, astringency, and acidity like white wine,
It is dry, crisp and refreshing without being harsh,
Delicious.
I went to the University of Tsukuba's school festival and had the world's best coffee jelly at a café not far from the huge grounds (it was indeed delicious!). ), and when I looked at souvenirs at the supermarket next door, I found this sake. I didn't have time to stop by a liquor store, so it was a nice souvenir.
