新舘幸樹
This time, as before, it is one of the fun bags.
It has been a long time since I have had a bottle of Koei Kiku. I have not picked it up recently because of the wide range of taste and aroma. Moreover, this sake is priced at nearly 3,000 yen for a four-pack, so it is not a sake I would choose for myself.
The bottle had a warning against opening, so I opened it carefully, but it cleared without any trouble.
Now, what does it taste like? The aroma is rich, melon-like and tropical, but not very strong.
When I put it in my mouth, I can smell other fruits instead of melon, but I can't describe it well.
Oh, I am late, but the sake rice used is my favorite Hachitan-Nishiki.
At first, it is sourness with a little bit of a slight effervescence, followed by sweetness. Almost at the same time it is close. The end of the bottle is marked by a slight bitterness and spiciness. The alcohol content is low at 14%, so it is easy to drink, but for me, it lacked a bit of sharpness, which was disappointing. Well, this happens sometimes.
