I had to work in the morning.
I started drinking slowly in the afternoon while watching the J2 game.
It's crisp and refreshing. But with a rich flavor.

I couldn't wait until the weekend to get to Kido's for a safe price.
It was just the right amount of stable goodness to end February.

Koeigiku月下無頼 GEKKA BRAI
にこちゃん
100% Omachi, 17% alcohol by volume.
Unlike the fruity Koei-Kiku sake we have had in the past, this is THE sake with a delicious rice flavor.

Yamatoshizuku純米吟醸 ユキノヤマト
にこちゃん
Akita sake. We like Kayasha, but this one is also our family's favorite.
It is lightly cloudy and you can enjoy the sweetness of the sake to the fullest.
Oysters, Kabosu yellowtail, red sea cucumber, and Sekisaba mackerel were 250 yen, so we had them as snacks.
Cheese, pasta, and other western style snacks would also go well with it.

Koeigikuスノウ・クリスタル
にこちゃん
Recently, I chose Snow Crystal, which I have not had yet, because I am addicted to the goodness of Koei Kiku.
The sound when the bottle is opened is irresistible. The gentle "pop" sound.
The freshness and the sweetness that leaves your nose.
It's the best.
You can also enjoy the aroma with a glass of wine.

Kuncho純米 赤色酵母仕込み
にこちゃん
The second bottle today was from Kaorucho Sake Brewery in Hita City, Oita Prefecture.
I have been enjoying a bottle of this sake every year with my sister-in-law.
It is 6% alcohol and sweet! This is a strange sake that changes its alcohol content every year.

My sister-in-law bought my favorite Koei Chrysanthemum ♥
It's super tasty, more effervescent than yesterday's Miun, with a smooth acidity. It's expensive though.
Thanks to Maruda Shuho in Oita.

Kido is the place to go today, as we have Koei Kiku waiting for us tomorrow.
I got three oysters for 250 yen, so I picked some up. Oysters from Oita Prefecture are huge.

A gift from someone who went to the brewery opening.
It is a mild and delicious new sake. The label is also dated and limited to the brewery opening, so it is very special.
I am thinking of going to the Nasika Festival at Yatsuka Brewery in April.

I found this sake at an izakaya when I visited Kitakyushu.
I ordered this sake because it was unusual because it was labeled "Franck Muller".
It was 1,500 yen per sake bottle, but it was delicious.

Happy New Year!
The first bottle of the new year is from Koei Kiku, which we pioneered last year.
It is fruity and can be drunk with a glass of wine.
This year, I would like to conquer all Koeihiku varieties (I probably will).

Fukushima Okunomatsu, a gift from my brother's work.
It's different from the fruity one I usually drink, it's more like a sake-like wine.
