くま吉
Purchased at a chain liquor store near Nishitetsu Kashii station.
Surprised to find a good selection of Kikuhime.
I bought it immediately because it's my favorite brand.
(Just after opening the bottle)
Drink it cold.
Clearly yellow in color.
Strong aroma of maturity.
When you put it in your mouth, you cannot believe it is sake.
Afterward, there is a dryness and acidity.
Surprisingly short aftertaste
It is difficult to match it with other dishes because it is quite peculiar.
I can't figure out what kind of food to pair it with.
You will be surprised at the completely different taste of this brand even though it is aged the same.
Warmed to lukewarm
There is no change in the aroma, but the acidity and other flavors seem to be more noticeable.
Same impression when heated.
I wonder how much the old production date (2022.10) affects the taste.
(2 days after opening the bottle)
Much easier to drink at a lower temperature
It goes well with beef stew with a strong flavor.
