Timeline
TakatsuguYamekoto Hajime" we have been following after coming across it this year. We opened the third bottle, brewed with 100% Gin-no-sato from Fukuoka Prefecture with a low alcohol content (13%).
It has a well-defined acidity and a beautiful umami flavor. Considering the low alcohol content, we were a little surprised by the strong impression of umami. The label says it goes well with "squid sashimi (salt or Kyushu's sweet soy sauce)," and it is a great food sake type that goes well with the stickiness of squid sashimi.
The next release will be after the new year, so this is a bottle you will want to keep an eye on. Not many sake stores seem to carry it, so if you come across it, please give it a try. Delicious: ‼️ TakatsuguContinuing from yesterday, this is the second "Yamekoto Hajime" sake I'm interested in. We opened a bottle of "Polishinai, Gin-no-sato".
This is a low-pasteurized sake made by reducing "Gin-no-sato" by only 82%. I have tried low-polished sake before, but 82% is a new territory for me personally.
The taste is dry, with a hint of sweetness and a beautiful acidity. It is easy to drink, without feeling the habit of being low-polished. It would be a good match for sushi, sweet and sour pork, and other dishes with acidity.
This is a bottle that raises expectations for the third release. Delicious: ❗️ TakatsuguYamekoto Hajime was one of the freshest and most surprising sakes we encountered this year. I opened the second bottle after shifting the time a little.
The refreshing, clear acidity is impressive. It is a sake, but if it were tried blind, it tastes like it could be mistaken for a white wine.
I miss the chance to drink the same brand when I am dabbling in regular and seasonal sake, but this is one that I would like to drink again. Delicious ‼️ 
TakatsuguThis is the first sake I've seen at my usual liquor store. I had no choice but to give it a try! I opened the bottle with a light heart.
The label reads, "Reminiscent of a Sauvignon Blanc... (abbreviated below)," and I drink it in a round wine glass. The taste is a refreshing sake with a fresh fruity and bamboo-like aroma, well-balanced and clean, and the umami and acidity go down your throat easily. The label says that the rice polishing ratio is 70%. This is a surprise. ‼️
It is said that this sake was brewed using rice from "Shunyo" in order to get to know "Gin-no-sato". There will be a second batch of this sake, so I would like to follow up on this one. I hope both sake and white wine lovers will enjoy this bottle. Delicious ‼️ ma-ki-Good evening, Takatsugu.
Congratulations on your 300 check-ins 🎉.
I have never come across any sake from Kyushu, so I will refer to this one as I like both sake and white wine 🎵. TakatsuguGood morning, ma-ki-.
I didn't notice the 300 check-in... Thank you very much ❗️
If you like white wine too, please give it a try 😄. ポンちゃんCongratulations Takatsugu on your 300 check in 🎉🎉🎉!
I've never seen this label before 😳Gin no Satomo, but Shunyo is also a rare sake rice, so I'm curious about it along with the taste of white wine😊. TakatsuguHi Ponch, good evening.
