Shiga Prefecture, Konan City. Takeuchi Sake Brewery Co.
Tadaiyuki Junmai Daiginjo (Hi-iri)
Takeuchi Shuzo has been going through a lot of problems within the company, and although the website exists, the online store and the directly managed restaurant are closed at the moment. I wonder if they don't make sake anymore... Too bad I couldn't visit them at the only joint brewery opening in Shiga Prefecture 😭.
I found it in a liquor store I visited after a long time, so I bought it even though it was more than a year old.
I'm going to drink it cold.
It is clear, but the yellow color is clearly recognizable.
The initial aroma is quite strong, with a sweet aroma like ripe fruit and a sweet, burnt aroma that spreads.
It has a viscous and viscous texture, with a sweetness that precedes the taste.
The nose has caramel-like overtones, with a fluffy acidity, and then when it passes through the nose, the caramel-like burnt aroma is released, followed by the concentrated, rich sweetness of overripe fruit on the tongue, and a slight acidity, which gives it a dried fruit-like quality.
Wow ❗️ it's completely aged, but it's so good 😋.
I don't know if I can drink it anymore 💦.

Good evening, Nemuchi-san 🍶.
The liquor store I go to often said something to the effect that they were asked to buy the last sake, so it looks like the one available now is probably the last one 😔It was delicious and my favorite brewery.
Takubon-san, good evening 🌛I heard at the liquor store that you said you were going to do other different business instead of working hard at sake 👂️ I was also working hard at the Japanese sake festival 💦 even though I enjoyed Tadaiya, Meitetsu, etc 😞...
Good evening, Nemuchi🦉.
It's too bad you can't drink it 🥺I've never had Meijutsu, so I'm looking at liquor stores in the prefecture to see if there are any still around💦.
Home drinking.
100% Yamadanishiki produced in Shiga Prefecture
The color is slightly whitish.
The mouthfeel is clean and mild.
The taste is sweet like green apple. The acidity is blended with sweet and sour.
Is it sweet? Is it sweet? But then the sourness appears and has a big impact 🤩.
The aftertaste has the umami of the rice, which is even more pronounced when combined with the acidity. I felt that the hint of aroma also penetrated through.
By not being too sweet, the acidity and fragrance were also well perceived, allowing me to enjoy a mellow and refreshing sake 😊.
Flavor somewhat reminiscent of morning dew green.
Slightly alcoholic, chemical melon-like.
The mouthfeel is refreshing.
The light, refreshing taste has a slight hint of rice flavor.
It is neither too strong nor too weak.
The limited item, omelette rice with crab (?), is quite good. is quite good.
It is a good accompaniment to sake.
