<Swishy, sweet melon, refreshing sake>. A bottle brewed with the three meanings of "sake, Ibaraki Prefecture, and bicycle" in "cycle! What is the cycle? 1、"Cycle of microorganisms" brewed by the traditional Kimoto brewing process with no added yeast. 2. The "Cycle of Local Production for Local Consumption," using only locally grown ingredients from Ibaraki Prefecture. 3, "Cycling," a popular activity in Ibaraki Prefecture. The "cycle of microorganisms" is brewed using yeast-free, additive-free kimoto brewing. The mouthfeel is a refreshing carbonation. The sweetness of the melon is refreshing! The natural earthy flavor that wafts through the air is also refreshing. Yum! It's a little low al at 14 degrees, which is also refreshing and easy to drink. It was so delicious! If I were to use a Ghibli analogy, it would be the scene in "Ears to the Sky" where they are riding up the hill on their bicycles. If you say "refreshing, sweet, and bicycle", this would be the one!

<A slight tanginess, rich and gorgeous, sweet and juicy. Fresh melon and a hint of herbs. When you put it in your mouth, it is slightly tangy and sweet. Wow, it's so gorgeous! The slightly mysterious umami flavor in the middle of it leaves a rich taste and makes you happy. This gorgeousness is not found in Ghibli, so I liken it to Scarlett O'Hara, the main character in "Gone with the Wind".

<Gentleness and refined beauty. The aroma is rich in rice flavor and beautiful alcohol. And fruity grapes. Ahhh, this is a good sake. When you put it in your mouth, you can feel the beautiful sweetness and acidity. While the sweetness and acidity swell, the umami and bitterness gradually appear. The sweetness is not too assertive, but withdraws, and the acidity remains and finishes off nicely. It is a very high quality sake. There is absolutely no bitterness. It is calm and gentle, yet has a well-honed beauty. It's wonderful right off the bat. The deliciousness sinks in. If I were to compare it to the music in Ghibli's "Princess Mononoke," it would be "Ashitaka Sekki," the music from the scene where Ashitaka sets off on his journey. This is the first half of the song. Before the grand climax. The sharpened atmosphere of early morning. The taste is full, yet calm and gentle.

This is a project to have a stiff competition with our rival, Shochiku Ume Pleiades. I wrote the details in Subaru, so here is just an excerpt from Gimpac for the record. The top aroma is a ginjo aroma of pears and apples. The strength of the aroma is about the same as that of Subaru, but GINPAK has a gentler aroma. In the mouth, there is a gentle sweetness and moderate acidity. It is gentle, yet very fruity. The aroma is more sweet than the actual taste. Therefore, it is not sticky with sweetness. The slight bitterness coming out from the back is also gentle. Yeah, this is still delicious. It is easy to recommend, especially to those who are not accustomed to drinking sake. It is also easy to obtain. Gimpac is a double winner at this year's IWC (International Wine Challenge), winning both the trophy (first place) in the ordinary sake category and the Great Value Sake, which is selected from sake with a retail price of 1,200 yen or less. (The highest award, the Champion Sake and Great Value Award, will be announced on July 4.)

Gachi Showdown! Shochiku Ume Subaru vs. Kikumasamune Gin Pack A head-to-head drinking comparison of the newly released Kiku-Masamune Subaru 300mL bottle and its rival Ginpak. Let's start with Subaru. The aroma is clear with cemedine and sweet alcohol. The aroma has a hint of melon ginjo aroma. The cemedine flavor gives it a freshness. But it is a bit strong, so there are different tastes. In the mouth, fresh fruit sweet, sour and bitter. Lychee, melon, and menthol. It is filled with a hint of bitter alcohol. The aftertaste is also sweet and bitter alcohol. It has a headache feeling with alcohol. 14 degrees, but it's clearly alcohol. Well, I'm sorry. This was not for me. Gimpak on the other hand. The top aroma, a ginjo aroma of pears and apples. The strength of the aroma is about the same as that of Subaru, but Gimpac has a gentler aroma. On the palate, it has a gentle sweetness and moderate acidity. It is gentle, yet very fruity. The aroma is even sweeter than the actual taste. Yes, this is really delicious. Degree of liking Shochiku Ume Subaru : ★★★ Kiku Masamune Gin Pack: ★★★★ As a result, Kiku-Masamune Gimpac won hands down.

<Wild, tasty, carnivorous. The aroma is a robust taste of grain nuts. The sweetness of banana and sugarcane is also soft. When you put it in your mouth, you are suddenly hit with a powerful thump. The taste is mainly grain, but also lactic acid, banana, bamboo grass, and syrup. Various tastes rush into the mouth at once. The aroma is also strong from the moment you put it in your mouth. And the strong alcohol taste is also a big whiff. The aftertaste has a delicious flavor like the smell of gunpowder left after a blast. The beautiful label is deceptive, but this baby is a carnivore. This is no zoo animal. He is ferocious and wild. He has the presence of a champion, but if you show him an opening, he will knock you down with his strong strength. If we compare him to the boar god from "Princess Mononoke" in Ghibli. He is a household member of Okkotonushi-sama. He is a wild boar, and his wildness is unmistakable.

<"The mildly sweet bitterness of the mildly ripe. The aroma is a candy sweet ho-hum. When you put it in your mouth, the syrupy sweetness melts in your mouth. From there, the sweetness swells to a slightly ripe, bitter sweetness. In the back, there is a soft rice flavor. Yum! The aftertaste is a gentle sweet and bitter sweetness. It has a gentle, matured feeling that is not unpleasant at all. Although it was produced in April, I felt a pleasant hint of ripeness, as if it had been laid down for a while. The acidity is very mild until the temperature reaches around 10℃, but it becomes a little sour around 15℃, which is also very nice. If I were to use a Ghibli analogy, I would compare it to Yasuya Tsukishima's father in "Ears to the Past". He is the father of the main character, Shizuku. He is a little bit matured, but his fairness and kindness are very nice. He is one of my ideal father figures.

<Aged sake, mild, with a splash at the end. Manufactured in December 2021. The temperature should be room temperature. The aroma is of course matured. Lactic acidity and caramelized bitter honey. The mouthfeel is mildly acidic and bitter. It has not aged too long. It's a relief. But it is not as sweet as I expected, and it is milder than I expected. Even if you leave it in your mouth for a while, the bitterness only gets slightly bigger and remains mild. But the moment it comes into contact with air in the mouth, the matured acid bitterness is suddenly and unexpectedly released! There is also a little sweetness from the honey. The sweetness of the honey is also present, but it is hidden behind the acid bitterness. The aroma is full of acidity. At the end, it seems to cut off at once like an arugula, but a little bit of umami remains in the air. It has a sense of maturity, but seems to go surprisingly well with meals. If I were to use a Ghibli analogy, it would be Makurokurosuke from "My Neighbor Totoro". When you expect it to be quiet, it suddenly comes out in a flash, followed by a little fluffiness.

<Sour Sour Sururi Ultra Dry - KARIZUBACHI! >Sour suri Long time no see, Amabuki. This time it is an ultra dry summer sake. It's a cool design, isn't it? But "hiya-ga-den" in a cold garden is a pun, isn't it! Well, I don't dislike this sense of combining the cool design, the goofy and cool "Ryuoh" and the subtle "Reiwa". Let's drink it right away. The aroma is clean and tasty, with a hint of acidity. You can tell just from the aroma. This is a beautiful dry sake. When you put it in your mouth, you can feel the slight acidity. The acidity is pungent, and the umami flavor is also slightly present, but it is just as clean and dry as it should be! Ultra dry. It has a wonderful sharpness. If we were to use a Ghibli analogy, it would be the sword of Master Yupa in "Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind". It is carved out of the shell of a king bug, and has a sharpness that can pierce ceramic armor. Hmm? I thought the shape of this chart looked familiar, but it is exactly the same shape as the Chokai mountain I mentioned three posts ago.

<Refreshing, soft lemon, sour and spicy sake. The aroma is clear lemon. When you put it in your mouth, it is slightly acidic, slightly sweet, and soft. The acidity is lemon-like and clear, but it is soft and fluffy, not acidic and pungent like a real lemon. From there, a refined umami flavor gradually emerges. The aroma is full of that mellow umami. The aftertaste, however, is slightly sweet and lingers for a long time. The acidity is sharp and cool. However, although the acidity is strong, the umami sweetness softens the whole flavor and is not harsh. Delicious! If I had to classify it as classic/modern, I would say it is modern. But I think it is modern in the classic sense. It's like a refreshingly modern wine with a solid acid classic base. If I were to use a Ghibli analogy, I would say Jiro's mother in "The Wind Rises. The environment around her is classic countryside, and she is very beautiful and somewhat modern, even though she wears a kimono, and she is a beautiful woman. But I feel some tension in her relationship with Jiro.

<I thought you'd be quiet, but... The aroma is of apple and rice. Slightly tangy and fruity on the palate. It is like adding kiwi acidity to apple. There is also a hint of citrus acidity. Yes, it is delicious. When I thought it was such a quiet fruity wine, the flavor and the rich aroma came out all at once! Plenty yet elegant. Elegant and yet glossy. The aftertaste is a gentle sweet, umami, bitter acidity for a moment. But it disappears quickly and cleanly. I can't think of any other sake that has a similar taste. It is interesting! If I were to use a Ghibli analogy, it would be Monica from "Red Pig". She is one of Fio's cousins. She only appears for a moment, she doesn't stand out, and she doesn't play an active role. But she is the kind of girl you remember later, saying, "Oh, by the way, that girl was cute too.

<It says, "Manma Soukai Dry Sake. The aroma is slightly rice flavor with a hint of sweetness. When you put it in your mouth, it has a gentle but clear acidity. The acidity spreads further, and the umami and alcohol gradually increase. It was just as the label depicted, a refreshing, dry sake. Refreshingly sour, dry, and umami. There is almost no sweetness. The dish was sea bream sashimi served with ponzu (Japanese citrus juice). The refreshing acidity of the ponzu and the umami of the sea bream were combined with the refreshing umami of the sake. It is very good. If I were to use a Ghibli analogy, I would compare it to Satsuki from "My Neighbor Totoro". A fresh summer girl living in the countryside. She is not sexy yet.

<Fresh pears of excellent quality. Junmai Daiginjos of different rice released in four consecutive months. The first one is Akaban Omachi, the top batter. When the bottle is opened, there is just a puff of air. But at that moment, a fine fruity and deliciously sweet aroma wafts through the air. Ahhh, this is it. Not only have I not drunk it, I haven't even poured it, but it's already delicious. It's not as wild as Momoten's, but it's still fresh even though it's fire-aged. When you put it in your mouth, it has a fine sweet, bitter and sour taste. Along with the fruity pear flavor, there is a hint of piri refreshing microcarbonation. From there, the elegant sweetness spreads, while the complex flavor comes through. Finally, the bitter alcohol flavor is also present, and the aroma is pleasant. Aaahhh, it's delicious!

<Lactic acid and honey sweetness classic This sake was awarded the number one prize for 12 consecutive years from 2006 to 2017 in the "Professional's Choice of Sake to Go with Eel," an annual competition held by the Japan Famous Sake Association! It was even inducted into the Hall of Fame. Amazing! The aroma at room temperature is powwow honey-sweet, fluffy alcohol. Yes, this and this. When you put it in your mouth, it's like a sweet and sour taste. There is no fruity taste at all, but lactic acid acidity and honey sweetness. There is a good sense of maturity. There is not much bitterness, but there is a pleasant astringent taste. Of course, the umami taste also comes out. The individual flavors are not that strong, but as a whole they are quite robust. The aftertaste, however, is a nice sweetness. It is very good. This firmness is definitely something I would like to pair with eel. If we compare it to Ghibli's "From Up On Poppy Hill", it is like Chancellor Tokumaru in the movie "From Up On Poppy Hill". He is the chancellor of Konan Academy, where the main characters attend, and the president of Tokumaru Bookstore, which is headquartered in Tokyo.

It was delicious! The entrée was grilled thick shiitake mushrooms. Simple, flavorful dishes go well with refreshing dry sake. If I were to use a Ghibli analogy, I would say Ferrarin from "Red Pig".
