Mix of tropical fruit-like sweet aroma and some cemedine-like aroma.
The mouthfeel is refreshingly sweet, followed by the impression of rice minerality, making it a good mid-meal sake.
One I purchased on a trip to Boso.
It has a citrus-like aroma and a slight cemedine-like flavor.
It has a flavor of rice and minerality, and I felt it would go well as a mealtime sake, especially with fish.
A friend brought me a bottle. Sparkling sake with secondary fermentation in the bottle.
The bottle was opened with a sound like sparkling wine. The mouthfeel is very light with a strong sense of effervescence, as if you were drinking sparkling wine. When the lees were mixed, the flavor of rice was added and the impression changed to a fruity sake.
This local sake is recommended by an inn in Chiba Prefecture as a sake that goes well with fish.
The initial taste is slightly fruity and easy to drink, followed by the impression of a strong rice flavor. It certainly goes well with fish.
A limited edition sake from a liquor store that was a hanpukai sake.
When the screw stopper is opened, it bubbles with a sizzling sound and a little lees dance on the surface.
The aroma is apple-like. The (almost) supernatant first. At first, it has a sweetness like apples and pears, and it seems to disappear.
When the lees are mixed, the sweetness of rice is added.
Aromas of fresh pears and apples. Fruity sweetness at first, followed by a refreshing minerality and a slight bitterness.
The day after drinking, I found the aftertaste to be a bit heavy.
This year we got one of our favorites from the different rice series of the crop.
Fruity aroma. After the juicy sweetness is firmly felt, you can feel the clean rice flavor.
The bottle was opened with a sizzling sound of gas escaping.
The aroma is like muscat and pear. There is a juicy sweetness that is typical of Kangiku, but also a clear impression of rice minerality.
This is the third installment of Eiko Fuji's "STARS" summer sake. SHOOTING STAR from the same series was delicious, so we got this one too.
Fruity aroma. The fresh fruity sweetness is followed by a clean rice flavor.
Opened the bottle on the occasion of my son's birthday.
The lid came off with a dry pop when I opened the bottle.
The aroma is moderately fruity. There is a chili chili gas feeling, a gentle peach and apple-like sweetness, and the umami of rice, giving the impression of disappearing nicely without being sticky.
Compared to the previous lot, the acidity and astringency seem to be lessened.
It was very tasty!
Good morning, b.bridge!
Happy birthday to your son 🎉.
Your child's birthday is very special ✨The birthdate you receive on such a special day must be very special 🎵.
Nabeshima after a long time. Opened a bottle that had been stored in the refrigerator.
Pineapple-like sweetness followed by rice minerality and a slight astringency at the end.
Slightly different from my notes immediately after purchase, but is this a change in taste or a discrepancy in taste perception...?
In any case, I still prefer Nabeshima.
The bottle was opened with a sizzling sound of gas escaping.
The aroma is like apples and pears. The first taste is fresh sweetness, followed by the umami of the rice, and finally some acidity and astringency. The acidity seems mild for Kouei Kiku (← personal impression).
Silent when opened.
Sweet pear-like aroma. The mouthfeel is fresh and fruity, followed by the umami of the rice, and then a refreshing grapefruit-like acidity and astringency.
It gives the impression of a sake that goes well with meals.
I drank White the year before last and Red last year and liked both series. The liquor store said that only White was sold this year.
The bottle was opened with a gasp sound. The aroma was pear-like. There is a slight gassy feeling when you drink it. It has a fruity sweetness like a peach that is not too ripe, and the sweetness is not sticky and turns into the umami of the rice. Very much to my liking.
Aroma like apple and muscat.
On the first day after opening, the impression was of a somewhat refreshing sweetness, but as the days passed after opening, the impression of peach and pineapple-like sweetness became more intense. The aftertaste is clean and easy to drink.
Daimine, which has been available for a long time.
Start with the top clear.
The aroma is clean and fruity. The sweetness is typical of Aizan, and there is a refreshing acidity in the aftertaste.
When mixed with ori, the sweetness subsides slightly and the umami of the rice is enhanced.
Omine is delicious after all.
