We had two Fukui sake that Jive gave us the other day 🍶.
The first one is Kansai Kasen.
Who said, "If you want to know the brewery, drink the regular sake." I was so glad to hear that.
This is the perfect sake for me, as it is the first time I have had "Kansai" in Kansai. ☺️
The appearance is silver crystal.
The aroma is mild, sweet and refreshing.
After the flat rice sweetness with a graininess comes on strong and smooth, the acidity spreads and comes on quickly, leaving a stimulating alcohol taste at the back of the throat and finishing with a sharp finish.
The lingering aroma is short, with grain and malted rice flavors.
When heated, the aroma of cooked rice is gently fragrant, with a hint of acidity.
The mouthfeel is more smooth, and the taste is distinctly sweet, with a koji-like flavor that is quite intoxicating.
Next up was the Wakaka Bambi cup 🦌.
Slightly pale yellow-green in color, the aroma is typical of sake with a koji-like sourness and sweetness.
The smooth, subtle sweetness and refreshing acidity spread with a sense of grain and slight bitterness.
There is a lingering alcohol taste and a strong sense of having drunk sake.
When lightly warmed in the microwave and served lukewarm, the acidity comes to the fore and a sharp stimulation can be felt from the back of the throat, giving a stronger sense that one has drunk sake!
Thank you, Gyve 🍶😊.

Hi Aladdin 😃
I see 🧐I see that it is a Toyama sake called Kanzai 😄By the way, Wakaka and Akirika 🦌 are sometimes sold together, is this a relative sake 🍶 or something else?

Hi Jay & Nobby 😃
It was named Kansai in the Meiji era, meaning "Echizen's famous brewery" in honor of the famous breweries in Kansai, Nada and Fushimi 🤔.
I only know Wakaka and Aki-shika from the Bambi Cup connection, but I'm curious about Harushika too 😅.

Good evening Aladdin 🌛.
Thank you for your review 🙇.
I never really understood the meaning of "Kansai" until I started enjoying sake myself💦.
Drinking heated sake at the end of the year makes me feel like I'm closing out the year!

Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌛.
We are afraid that there is no relationship between the warehouses, but the designers of the one-cup cups are probably the same 🤔.

Good evening, Aladdin 😃.
I'm from Kansai and the name alone makes me want to try this sake 😁.
There was a sake from Katayama Sake Brewery at the antenna store in KITE, but they didn't have it in Kansai 😥.

Thanks for the food, Jive 😃.
Thank you so much 🍶.
It's so interesting that one of Fukui's most famous brands is "Kansai", yet I don't think "Kansai" is well known in Kansai 🤔.
After all, local sake is drunk too: ☺️

Hello bouken 😃
The antenna store on the 2nd floor of KITTE in Osaka has some interesting sake 😄.
The Hokuriku store is my first choice, but I'm afraid I'll lose my love for Niigata as it was quite well stocked too 😌.
