Kikusuiしぼりたて生原酒 限定樽酒

Here we go again this year, the first in a series of trophies from the Niigata Sake Festival. It's...Kikusui!
Just like last year, Kikusui's booth was crowded this year. Funaguchi seemed to be the most popular, but I decided to buy this one immediately after tasting it, as I thought it was as good as the others.
It is sharp and edgy rather than fresh at the entrance, followed by umami and then dryness. I remember the lady at the booth told me to be careful because of its high alcohol content (19%) (I was already drunk at that time). It is a dangerous drink because it is easy to drink.
I bought 6 bottles this time. I will update this page as needed.
