The brewer of "Tazake" offers a supreme daiginjo once a year.
The best sake rice "Yamada-Nishiki" is used, and only the luxury portion of 40% polished rice is used. Because only the "heart white" portion of this superb sake rice is used to brew this sake, the quality and taste are exceptional.
No artificial power is used in the pressing process, and only the best part, the "Nakadori" by the sake bag, is lavishly bottled. Every drop of this gem is the pride of the brewery.
Taste it and you will find a dry yet rich mouthfeel. The refined ginjo aroma is reminiscent of peaches and melons, and the deep lingering taste dances on the tongue. It is special in its own right as an infinitely rare daiginjo-shu from Nishida Shuzo that further enhances the name of "Tasyu" (rice wine).
The name "Zenchidori" (Utou) is inspired by the precious bird that represents the city of Aomori and symbolizes the rarity and nobility of this sake.

A strange sake.
Another version of the famous Tasake sake brewery.
It has the same great umami and sweetness as Tasake, but there is something different about it. It has a strong sense of refreshingness and is more delicate than Tasake.
I wonder if they are thinking about the marriage with a snack rather than the perfection as a stand-alone sake.
It is just delicious.
Pear or apple-like aroma.
Very little bitterness or acidity, gentle sweetness and rich flavor in a watery clarity.
I was surprised at how delicious it was.
I didn't expect such an impression yet..,
New Year's house drinking starts here 🎍.
Green apple, pear, grape...elegant ginjo aroma 🍏.
Smooth flow, sharp taste, and a gentle aftertaste...
But it's not a clear, gorgeous (lacking in character) daiginjo, it has a solid umami and sweetness in the middle, which is the very flavor of tasake 🌾.
Very clean, refined, and rich ✨.
It is a sake that is both modern and classic 😋.
Good evening, Jurian!
I actually bought the same bottle, but I didn't open it yet because I felt like it was a waste. After reading your post, I made up my mind to open it.
