ことりKAWABU - Chill
Kawabu Brewery is well known for its "Hokosugi" brand.
The brewery plans to launch the high-class brand "Shiki" in 2021, and in 2022, "KAWABU" will be born, bearing the brewery's name.
The elegant aroma with gorgeous fruitiness is mellow and sweet, with hints of white peach, lychee, and grape. The lees of the ogara-mushi (strained lees) are small, but there is the tangy stimulation of the raw sake. The taste eventually changes to sweet and sour like apples. It is so delicious that it is hard to believe it is sake.
Rice: Gohyakumangoku
Alcohol 15%.
Rice polishing ratio 65
Yeast: Mie Prefecture yeast MK-3 ことりSweet and floral, with a citrusy, tangy and gentle bitterness. Fresh and easy to drink, mellow on the second day and maybe a bit alcoholic on the third day. I thought it was easy to drink and delicious. ☺️ I would drink it again.

Alcohol content 16 ことりI was curious to see what kind of sake brewed with local ultra-soft water was like, so I stopped by a liquor store and found this one.
We had it while learning about the history of the Oke-sale.
The style of the sake is soft, but the bitterness cuts through it.
The top-tasting aroma is a gentle melon-like ginjo aroma. The mouthfeel is slightly smooth, sweet, and thick with a lingering bitterness and a slight mushroom-like taste.

Sake meter degree +2

Water used for brewing: Home-brewed spring water (ultra-soft water) at the foot of the plateau ことりLight nigori, which I like. Fine gas sensation on the tip of the tongue. Gorgeous aroma, with a hint of seme smell that is more melon. Thick and sweet, with a volume of umami. Slightly bitter and citrus-like acidity, it is delicious and nicely integrated. ☺️
Alcohol content 17%.
Sake meter degree +1 to +3 りっちーVery refreshing. Easy to drink! It has a citrus aroma and is easy to drink. It has an aroma and is easy to drink without too much bitterness, leaving a delicious taste in the mouth! Goes with everything from sashimi to meat dishes! りっちーRich taste. Maybe because it's 17 degrees alcohol?
Very tasty! We paired it with a Umezurahagi sashimi (with liver). RecommendedContentsSectionView.title
