I came home from night shift and had a drink in the middle of the night. I bought this one in October because I had more sake in the cellar that I wanted to save, and I was patient and let it sit undrinkable. Originally, Kouei Kiku's Ikubou was a one or two year old sake. I know that Koueikiku's Ikubou tastes best when it has been aged for a year or two! The aroma is acidic and woody. The aroma is acidic and woody, but when you put it in your mouth, it has a thick brown sugar-like sweetness and umami with a touch of acidity. A bit gassy. And there is a feeling of wood vat and brandy. This is one of my personal top class Kouei Chrysanthemum lovers (but you have to let it sleep) ❤️ Don't drink it in one day, savor it slowly over a few days 😌. Third day after opening the bottle. It's getting nuttier and deeper 😊I know it's just my personal opinion from a stupid tongue, but this is what makes this sake worth growing ✨. On the 6th day of opening the bottle, the flavor has become even richer and more delicious: ❗️
