Comparison of nigori sake (Wakayama's favorite nigori sake)
Following Minakata, Chokyu ✌️
This is the fire-brewed version of the nigori sake we drank in February.
I buy every bottle of Chokyu I see that I have never had before 😆.
The first thing that surprised me when I drank it was that there was no fizziness at all 😲.
The aroma is somewhat almond-like, and it's cloudy with a lot of orioles, so it's like diluted almond milk.
But it also has a sourness to it, so I felt a bit unbalanced 🤔.
I prefer nigori sake with a fizzy taste 😄.

Nigori Sake (Japanese rice wine)
First time drinking Chokyu's nigori 😊.
I always buy Chokyu when I see the new label ✌.
The ori is quite a bit more and has a strong fizzy feel to it.
It has a lot of umami and a hint of sweetness that is typical of Chokyu, and yet it has a clean dryness that makes it a dangerous sake that you can drink with gusto 🤭.
The impression is quite similar to Hirotogawa's nigori👍
It goes well with western food, and the omelette was a nice match 😋.

[Summer sake is also berry good😂]
The most memorable brand I drank last year, super kyu🥰.
Don't miss out on getting a bottle of summer raw sake that's also bright!
This one is a bit different from the matured Omachi sake I had last year, and I have the impression that it swings in a very sweet and juicy direction.
The aroma is tropical 🥭 and the flavor is perfect, with a long, sharp finish and a hint of bitterness.
The umami flavor is firm, so it is easy to match with Japanese fried food 👍.
Chokyu seems to have a different direction for each label, but each one has its own characteristics and they are all delicious and addictive 😍.
