コジコジ
I met this bottle at a liquor store where I sometimes drop by.
I was excited even before opening the bottle, because it was a "surefire Kangiku" and distributed only in Chiba. The concept of using local rice and water to make sake that Matsuo and Chiba can be proud of is wonderful.
The sake was right in the middle of my favorite.
The aroma is gently fruity like a pear.
The mouthfeel is sharp and smooth, with a moderate sweetness and a pleasant gasiness.
The medium-bodied palate has a well-balanced harmony of acidity, bitterness, and spiciness.
The aftertaste is refreshing, with a dry bitterness that quickly breaks off.
The price is also very reasonable at around 1,500 yen for a four-pack bottle. The only drawback is that it is rare and hard to find.
The best accompaniment is sashimi and sushi purchased at the supermarket, and it goes great with them.
My favorite score: 9.5/10
Aroma: 2.0｜Mouthfeel: 1.5｜Medium: 2.0｜Final taste: 2.0｜Price: 2.0
→ Full marks if the mouthfeel is a little less sweet!
