It is a rich, savory sake with plenty of rice flavor.
Personally, it tasted like Shaoxing wine.
It has a golden color due to slow aging in the brewery.

This sake is probably the last one.
This time we got many recommendations from the restaurant.
I wish I had left it to them earlier.
When I choose my own sake, I tend to choose only my favorites.
I also met some sake that I didn't know about, so it's fun to be a part of the fun 😆.
Hot, hot sake.
Aroma: Aroma of brown sugar.
When you drink it, it is almost not sweet at all.
The sourness is very clear,
The alcohol leaves a bit strongly.
The aroma of citrus fruits and earthy aroma continues.
It is different from dry, not sweet, but spicy and has a flavor profile.
It is light on the palate and can be drunk easily with food.
I enjoyed it with pickled cucumber on kelp. It goes very well with cucumber pickled in kelp.
Taste degree ☆ 3.5/5
Takezuru by Tatsuya Ishikawa brewed in 2008
Personally, I like this Omachi made from duck-farmed rice.
It is easy to drink and I often repeat it.
I'm having sukiyaki with it tonight!
