Kankiku Ocean Ninety-Nine Toumi Pineapple-like aroma and sweetness typical of Kankiku. Delicious without much sourness and bitterness. Mr. Yanagishita, the master brewer, originally worked as an aircraft mechanic for JAL at Narita Airport, but his attachment to his hometown of Chiba and his desire to "do work that only I can do" led him to the path of sake brewing. After joining Kangiku Meikozo in the beer brewing department, he was selected to be the toji (master brewer), despite his lack of experience, when the previous master brewer retired. He initially trained under his predecessor and is now in charge of sake brewing as a toji. The name "Kangiku" is said to have come from the appearance of Kangiku (chrysanthemum blooming in winter), which blooms strongly and beautifully even in the coldest season.

Melayu Natsumikan The concept is "warmed sake for a stomach tired from cold drinks, etc." in the latter half of summer. Of course, we had it cold at Uoso. Spartan style. It was different from the usual Murayu, but it tasted better when heated. The label is also good for easy identification of the taste. The brand name is derived from the brewer's surname "Murayama" and "Yu" means "to help and bring happiness. The brand also incorporates the German wine concept of ranking wines based on their sweetness (the sweeter the wine, the higher the rank).

I didn't like the combination of colors and letters, nor the color alone, nor the material that absorbs water.
