A drinking friend of mine wanted to drink a bottle of Takezuru by Toshi Ishikawa, who has moved to Tsuki no I. So I agreed to accompany him. We had it heated. The first aroma is like a matured Shaoxing sake. The first sip had a matured Shaoxing sake-like aroma, and the second had a mildly sweet taste with a Shaoxing sake-like acidity and umami. The sweetness is still there, but it's the kind of fully fermented sake that you can drink while eating snacks. It was delicious 🍶✨.

I've been saving it for over 2 years because it's my favorite brand, but I've decided to open it up. I'm going to enjoy changing the flavor slowly from here ✨. When you open the bottle and pour it in, the aroma is like sweet baked sweets like sponge cake or kawara senbei. The mouthfeel is round and robust. It is round and robust on the palate, with a punch of spiciness and a tangy sourness. It also has a rich, thick flavor and a sweetness that spreads gradually. The balance of sweet, sour, spicy, and bitter is exquisite, not just strong and heavy, and the taste has a wide range of deep flavors, including a confectionery, grain, and rice feel! This is the second brand that has really caught my attention after "Akagisan," and I am very happy with it. It is a bit pricey, but I would like to try the sake made from the original sake yeast if I see it 😌.

☆☆☆☆☆ I would love to drink the whisky Takezuru, but the sake Takezuru. This is probably my first time. Unlike the aroma, the taste is strong and robust. But it is surprisingly easy to drink. It smells a little like alcohol, but it is delicious.

The second glass was a Taketsuru. Last time I had a black one, which the proprietress had warmed up, but today it was nigori. Today's was nigori. It was the first nigori heated sake I've ever had. It's not sweet, but it's very mild and tasty.

This is a sake Hatsushibori-Takeshaku Junmai Ginjo Nama. It is a fresh sake with a delicious acidity and a strong flavor of rice. It is a delicious sake that does not interfere with a meal. It is available at Sake Ogawa.

Takekizuru, famous for its whiskey sake first. There are preconceived notions, but it is similar to whisky Interesting sake with astringency, spiciness and sweetness Best with Miso-soaked Cream Cheese

I had never been able to get my hands on a bottle of Takekutsuru because of the image of heated or aged sake, but I bought a bottle of draft. It's probably quite dry, but it's not sweet, and it has a melon-like flavor that makes it easier to drink than I expected. I felt that the flavor broadened as the temperature went up a bit. I'm going to try heating it up soon 🍶. I think it tastes better when it's heated up, the acidity is more pronounced, but the spiciness is also more pronounced. It's hard to say which is better 🤔. I thought it was spicy, but when I compare it to Issokusenzan, Issokusenzan tastes sweeter.

8 points (Wife: 8 points) Rice used: Hachitan-Nishiki Rice polishing ratio: 70 Alcohol: 16-17 degrees Sake degree: +8 Acidity: 1.8 Soft rice malt top-drinker The same aroma as the first saké, a slight sweetness spreads gradually with a slight acidity, and a slight bitterness and a rather strong alcohol spiciness. It is like a sweet sake with less sweetness, but the spiciness of the alcohol makes it easy to drink. It is easy to pair with both meat and fish, and is delicious on its own as well, with the richness of the rice.
