A friend of mine recommended Kunigon to me. I had only ever drunk Tobiroki from Fukushima, so I was excited to try it. It has a refreshing aroma, a little acidity, and a light and elegant feeling.
The first sake in Toyama. This is Haneya that I was interested in at Toyama antenna shop in Nihonbashi. It has a mellow taste that only unpasteurized sake can have. The richness is irresistible. The aroma is not too strong and elegant.
The bottle is so cool! The midnight blue label.
The midnight blue label is cool! I like the glowing blue color! The taste is sweet, but with time you can also taste a little acidity. ...... Yamamoto is delicious!
The "ori" dances around in the bottle, and when you sip it with excitement, the refreshing fruity taste spreads out, and unlike its cloudy appearance, it tastes clean and refreshing!
After having delicious motsunoyaki, we had Kido
Haginotsuru, and finally Kitayuki. It was the first time for me to drink a sake from Sado Island in Niigata. The light and dry taste is good for those who like motsuyaki.
This is my first Gangi. I've been drinking sake from Yamaguchi for a while now. Gangi has a good aroma, a deep (dark) taste, and is a little sweet.
For me, I think it's Kaki > Gangi.
When I ordered Kido at a bar, I was served Jikin. I was so surprised at the unexpected turn of events, and it tasted so good, I couldn't stop drinking.
(The bar was out of Kido, so they said, "If you don't mind, we have today's daily special sake.)
