Asahi Hawk from December is a once-fired sake? The Asahi Taka from December is a fresh-stored sake.
Since the rice used for this sake is different from that used for cold-stored sake, the fruity taste was understated. The flavor can be enjoyed gradually after opening the bottle.
Alcohol content: 15
Rice: Undisclosed, Brewer's alcohol
Rice polishing ratio: 55
This is the second Asahitaka registered.
The color is slightly yellowish.
There is not much sweetness, and bitterness and acidity predominate.
It is dry but fruity and delicious.
As always, Asahitaka overturns the image one has of honjozo sake.
Asahi Hawk changes to cold storage sake in June.
On the first day of opening the bottle, the impression was "? but it changed drastically on the second day. It tastes like eating Delaware.
This is the first time for me to try Asahitaka sake.
Unlike cold-stored or fresh-stored sake, this sake has a sweeter and thicker texture.
It has acidity at the end and does not make you tired of drinking.
The lid is closed very tightly.
Appreciate the same price as last year!
Sake made by Takagi Sake Brewery.
It is sold only in Yamagata Prefecture.
Honjozo, but with a rice polishing ratio of 55
It is mellow, but easy to drink.
But it is easy to drink.
Honjozo, huh? I thought, "This sake will knock your socks off! He recommended it to me.
The taste overturns the common sense of Honjozo.
You can taste the umami of the rice and smell the aroma on the nose.
I was astonished by this addictive gem.
I want to drink it whenever I encounter it.
The depth of the honjozo. I will study it again.

The 444th Kiriban was brewed by Asahitaka.
The aroma is reminiscent of peaches, with little sweetness and a predominance of acidity.
It is a special honjozo sake, but the sense of alcohol is weak.
The taste is generally dry, but it is a delicious sake with a fruity flavor that is not too refreshing.
Good evening, um!
Congratulations on your 444 check-in 🎉!
I have never actually seen Asahitaka, but I have the impression that it is special because it is made by Takagi Sake Brewery, the brewer of Jyushiyo 😍.
Kagura-san is the place to go for a drink in October!
This time, instead of the all-you-can-drink standing drink, we decided to sit on chairs and order rare sake at our seats 😊.
We got it from Asahitaka, a sake distributed in Yamagata Prefecture by the Takagi Brewery of Jyushiyo 😃.
The aroma was faint but I couldn't tell. It has a beautiful mouthfeel with a clean sweet flavor and just a hint of alcohol. The acidity is also very slight, so it is very easy to drink and has a beautiful umami flavor.
The rare sake menu is also attached.
There was also a 90ml rare sake of Jyushiyo for 27500 yen 🤔 I wonder what kind of people will drink it 🤔.
Hello ichiro18 😌.
I'm jealous because I've always wanted to try Asahitaka 🥳.
I wonder if it's like a pretty refreshing and tasty sake 😋.
90ml for 27,000 yen is amazing 😳
Only the wealthy would drink it 🤣.
Hi, Afio 😃.
I was wondering if I should go to Yamagata to look for it, but I decided to have it here 😊Yes! I think it's close to a refreshing sake... I can't afford expensive sake, but Asahitaka was delicious too!
Hello ichiro18 😃.
Eh? Eh? Eh 😱!
27500 yen for 90ml! 💸.
Not a single 0 misses. ⁉️ that's not happening 😫 I'd like to ask for a cool, quick order 😅The price of sake is a mystery to me... 💦.
Hi HinaHanaMama 😃
If you get drunk, you might get worked up and misplace the order button too 😁 I'm not sure about the list price of Jyushidai, and the price is indeed a mystery 😅.
 It's a three-digit sake for the average person 😃.
Good morning, ichiro18!
Kagura-san's sake lineup is just too good 😍.
I have an image of Jyushiyo as sweet and tasty, but Asahitaka is a refreshingly tasty sake 😲.
I'm sure it's a very rare sake 🤗.
- It's been a while since I've had an Asahi Hawk ❣️ Slight ginjo aroma when you open the bottle ❗️ Sweetness and acidity spread in the mouth in good balance, and it goes down smoothly ‼️ It's easy to drink and very tasty 😊👍
At a sake bar in Yamagata.
Apparently it is not easy to drink outside of the prefecture😲.
It has a fruity and refreshing taste like Jyushiyo, but it is also soft and calm.
I felt it was easy to match with meals.
Of all the sake we drank in Yamagata
My husband especially liked this sake 🍶.
Asahi Hawk New Sake Nama-Shu" by Takagi Shuzo
This locally distributed sake is brewed by the Takagi Shuzo brewery in Murayama City, Yamagata Prefecture, known for its "Jyushiyo" brand. While "Jyushiyo," which has become synonymous with hard-to-find sake, is not available in the local area, "Asahitaka" is almost exclusively available in the brewery's home town. It has long been a popular local evening drink, but some say that the quality of sake has improved with the advent of "Jyushidai. Founded in 1615 in the early Edo period (1603-1868), the brewery has been in business for more than 400 years. The current owner is the 15th generation, Akitsuna Takagi, who graduated from the brewing department of Tokyo University of Agriculture and worked in the distribution industry in Tokyo before returning to his hometown at his father's request in 1993 to take over the brewery. He eventually introduced "Jyushiyo" to the world, which is said to have been named in honor of his father. Asahitaka" has a slightly sweet aroma and a smooth taste, and some say it reminds them of "Jyushidai." It is a special honjozo made with natural spring water from 25 meters underground, and is highly valued for its soft taste with a ginjo aroma, fresh texture, and high cost performance.
