KoeigikuSnow crystal原酒生酒無濾過
20
Geko13°. Mmm, it is delicious after all. Koueikiku is very delicious. Snow crystal has a beautiful acidity, but the sweetness of the rice spreads in the mouth afterwards. After a few days after opening the bottle, the acidity subsides a little, but I prefer the taste of this sake as soon as it is opened.

GekoPlenty of rice fluffiness. Just the right amount of sweetness. It goes well with stewed dishes with a strong flavor. I warmed it up as I was told that warming it up was recommended, but the sweetness went away and it was refreshing.

GekoYamadanishiki 22% Saga no Hana 78%. Rice polishing rate 60%. 16° Sake meter -4 Acidity 1.7 Sourness is crisp and clear. Then it is finished with bitterness. The acidity is very high. The acidity is almost like a refreshing white wine. We didn't catch the sweetness. After two days of challenge, the sweetness of the rice came a little bit. The swelling of the rice also increased. I wonder if the acidity was reduced a little.

GekoYamadanishiki 100% Rice polishing ratio 55%, Sake meter value +3.0 Acidity 1.6 Alcohol 15°. Day 1 Crisp sourness is followed by a sweet melon scent that spreads in a blur, but the aftertaste is short. The sourness and sweetness are both subdued, and you can drink it without getting tired of it. On the second day, the sourness is reduced and the sweetness seems to be stronger. Day 3 The sweetness is moderate and the acidity is high. .... Is this change due to the condition of my body?

GekoAishan 100% Rice polishing rate 65%. 16°. Tingling as soon as it was opened, the sweetness wasn't too strong, and it was very crisp. Two days after opening the bottle, the tingling is gone and the full-bodied sweetness and beautiful acidity appear. The sweetness spreads in the mouth for a moment after drinking, but the crispness is good. Oh, so this is the Aisan we've heard so much about.

GekoRice polishing ratio 58% 17 Although it is a pure rice sake, it is polished to less than 60%, which is on par with a ginjo. Therefore, it has no bitterness. It has a strong flavor and the sweetness of the rice, so it will go well with simmered dishes and other strong flavors.

GekoRice polishing ratio 50% 15 A crisp and clean sake. The crispness is good. Doesn't interfere with your meal. The price is quite reasonable. No loss on your own. This is a sake that is planned to do its best not to be beaten by Corona. I'm sure the sake breweries of Japan must have taken a hit from Corona. We'll drink it with gratitude.

Koeigikusunburst原酒生酒無濾過

GekoI tried the sake sunburst that is rumored to have a burst of acidity. The acidity is definitely noticeable. But the acidity was too strong and not enough.... I thought it was too much acidity, but the richness of the drink gets richer and richer as the days go by after opening the bottle. On the other hand, the acidity is gradually suppressed. On the other hand, the acidity is gradually reduced.

GekoRice polishing rate 65%. 13° alcohol 100% Yamadanishiki from Hyogo Prefecture It is made from white koji, which is used for shochu liqueur. It looks interesting from the label. When you drink it... The acidity is obvious. It has a strong sweet taste. It's like pineapple juice...? I'm sure it's juicy. On the second day, the acidity flies off a bit and the sweetness is more pronounced. For me personally, I preferred the first day.

GekoAll ingredients are from Yamagata. Rice polishing rate 50%, 13% alcohol. We finally got to meet Mr. Mitsuo Yamakawa. I couldn't catch the rodeo feeling on the label, but it was a delicious sake that never betrayed my expectations. In the mouth, the aroma is high like Muscat and the taste is juicy. The taste was juicy, but surprisingly crisp. Therefore, it can be drunk very easily. I want to meet Mr. Yamakawa again.

GekoGohyakumangoku Koshitanrei 55%. 16°. Does it smell like melon? Anyway, it's sweet. In fact, in the mouth, the sweetness is strong, but the fresh acidity is impressive. Finally, it has a bitter taste. After a few days, the acidity was more pronounced. The acidity is reminiscent of white wine. Is this acidity from the English description on the label and the awareness of overseas expansion?

GekoAt 13 degrees alcohol, with its lightness, grapefruitiness and crispiness, this is already a juice. It's dangerous to drink it because you may end up drinking it all the time. But you can feel the rice in the end. It is Japanese sake.
