Suigei特別純米　しぼりたて生酒2022、2023、他
Suigei ShuzoKochi

よしよしThe main culprit that drew me into the sake swamp on New Year's Day, 2023. I had always pursued whiskey and beer, and thought that sake was just not that good, but Drunken Whale opened my eyes to a whole new world. At first, I thought it was just like sake, but after a few days, the taste changed, the bitterness unique to sake disappeared, and a subtle sweetness spread. The more I drank, the more I wanted another sip! The more I drank, the more I wanted another sip! Since then, I have had almost every version of Drunken Whale, and I have drunk a lot of sake to learn more about sake, but the impression of the first bottle will forever be supreme for me. I have nothing but gratitude for this sake.

Shinshu Kirei山田錦　純米吟醸

よしよしIt has a sweet aroma when you open it, and when you put it in your mouth, you feel sweetness and alcohol at the same time. There is almost no sourness or bitterness, but the alcohol feeling remains a little. The sweetness is not fruit, but rice sweetness! It is not like fruit, but rather the sweetness of rice! It is more like rice sweetness. It is different from the fruity sweetness of Hana-yosu. It is freshly opened, so I think it will become a very good sake after tomorrow when the alcohol spikes are removed. I like this sake because it has a sake-like taste. On the second day, the spikiness of the alcohol is gone, and the taste is as expected! This was one that made me want to drink other Shinshu Kamerei as well.

Ubusuna　2023山田錦　二農醸

よしよしAs you say, when you open the bottle, it makes a nice sound! It has a nice sound when you open the bottle. Just before I put it in my mouth, there was a slight sweet aroma, and the moment it hit my tongue, I thought the sweetness was stronger than the aroma, but it was gone quickly and crisply. It is a very interesting sensation. I think it is good for sake beginners.

よしよしFirst sip immediately after opening the bottle. It has a refreshing sweetness, with a slight bitterness that follows the aftertaste without being persistent. The bitterness is also very sharp. I am looking forward to seeing how it will taste different after another day or two. Three days later, the bitterness is gone and I am eating sweet grapefruit? Drinking it? I feel like I'm eating or drinking sweet grapefruit. But the aftertaste is refreshing, so I can guzzle it without any aperitifs.

よしよしIt was a gift, but for me, I think it tastes as good as fruity liquors such as Hana-yoku! I had the impression that the sweetness became stronger as time passed after opening the bottle, and it was a bottle I would like to purchase again!

よしよしI was impressed by the balance of acidity, sweetness, and sharpness. When I drank it the next day, I thought, "What was it like yesterday? What about yesterday's impression? I wondered if the temperature in the refrigerator was too low.

よしよしThe crispness after the sweetness, the umami, everything is well-balanced. As expected of Erima! I drank it for the first time, but I think everyone will like it.
