Contract grown rice Asahi rice from Akasaka, Akaban City
I drink it hot.
It's easy to drink, not too sweet, and perfect for the second glass of winter!
Sometimes local sake ❗️
I don't have Okayama love ❤️ for sake... 🤣
First sake in the "Taisho no Tsuru" series 🍶.
Again, my preconceived image is that Okayama sake is mostly classic ❗️
In fact...
The aroma is more mature, the taste is clean and not so much classic ⁉️ 💦, but as you drink it, the classic feeling gradually peeks out from the aftertaste 😅.
I left it out of the fridge to change the temperature range a bit, but the flavor didn't change that much and it was still a bit heavy 🤣.
Hi Jay & Nobby 😊I'm not sure about the Okayama love when it comes to sake as it's a bit different from my tastes 😅Other than that I'm full of Okayama love 🥰.

Taisho no Tsuru Junmai Ginjo Nakadori Nama
大正の鶴 純米吟醸 中取り生
Nakadori is a sake that uses only the middle part of the sake, the cleanest part, so I tried it. However, it was a bit boring because it was so clean that I felt like all of the flavor was cut out.
I had some business to attend to and went to Kawagoe again. It is a small Edo (small city) and is made of warehouses, but there was nothing emotional or emotional about it because it was located along the main street. It was just a normal walk around the city in the heat.
I had a light drink with a friend and headed home. It was our first time to visit this restaurant, but they had a good selection of sake.
My first Taisho no Tsuru is a rich food sake, the exact opposite of a summer sake. The opposite of a summer sake, it goes well with oden even in hot summer.
(The mustard container is cute).
The label design of the Rising series is said to represent the Chinese character for rising. It's cool.
We finished with a summery spring haze.
Good morning, Nochi 😃.
I would like to walk around Koedo when it's cool and free 😁I think I've never seen Taisho no Tsuru before 🧐The label looks delicious 😋Full-flavored food sake! I'd love to try it 😙.
Jay & Nobby Good evening. Good old Kawagoe is a little ahead of Omiya. Please come and see the sights with a light heart. If you do, please let me know.
Taisho cranes are not bad. Try it!
Slightly lighter in color.
The aroma is rich. Tropical aromas such as banana, maybe some tea and mushroom-like aromas. Kelp? Somewhat nourishing aroma.
Pleasant taste. It has a long aftertaste with a clean but deep flavor and a sharp but lingering aftertaste.
Warm it up.
YUMMY. The sweetness and umami are pleasant. Can be served at room temperature or warmed, but I'd have to say heated.
Taisho no Tsuru is great! It's mellow but has a nice astringent taste. It's like it fits into your body, or at least it's delicious!
