It's been a long time since we had a stand-up drinking session at Chuin-san.
The third and last sake was Jikkai's Sake Mirai, which happened to be open on the day of the event.
It is a junmai ginjo sake.
I haven't had a chance to drink Jikin recently, so I feel like it's been a long time since I've had it.
I am afraid I only know people in the Kansai region, but I heard that Kadoya Sake Shop in Ibaraki, Osaka, had recently sold this sake at a point of sale, or that the point of sale for the same Jikin is different depending on the raw rice used? I had a lot of conversations with the owner, Mr. Kawada, about such things.
The appearance is pale yellow-green crystal.
The aroma is modest, fruity, and rich in rice aroma.
Apples, pears, berries.
Powdery rice aroma.
The mouthfeel is smooth and silky.
The sweetness is moderate.
A little assertive acidity.
Umami with a sense of rice.
The umami finishes with the acidity.
The lingering aftertaste after swallowing is long and slow.
It is surprisingly smooth!
There is a slight koji flavor, and more koji flavor comes out in the returning aroma.
Personally, I felt the finish was unexpected.
It might have been especially hard on the day of opening 🤔.
I would like to follow the opening changes for a few days, but that is the fate of outside drinking.
I thought I'd like to try aging the Jikin Sake Mirai in ice temperature for a while, but it didn't matter because I couldn't afford it anyway 😁.

Hi Aladdin 🐦.
I feel like I'm getting a great deal from Chuin's standing drinking because I can see multiple detailed reviews 😆🙏🙏.
Kadoya-san, I drink at home once or twice a year, so I am far away from drinking at home now 🤣.

Good evening, Pon 😃.
Checking in on Chuin is an abridged version, so I'm kind of dreading you saying so 😅.
Kadoya Sake Shop, I love it too, but I can't visit the store often because I'm strictly in the area and only look at your instagram 😌.
