2008BY was served warm. I have had many kinds of Taketsuru, but the 2008BY is the oldest ever.
The color is a dark brown. It has a caramelized taste and a sharpness that can only come from long aging.
Second cup. (*^^*)
Hiroshima is a famous sake brewing area. (*^^*)
The first sip has a sour taste. Then the aroma of koji. And sweetness. The water is also good.
Takehara is near Yamaguchi prefecture.
It is a good sake.
I feel good when I drink at this restaurant. (*^^*) It is also thanks to sake. I can reset the fatigue of work. It is good sake.
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 😌.
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 was not a fan of the sake, but when heated up, I instantly liked it.
It's hard to explain the taste.
It's hard to describe the taste, but it's not tiring to drink. The snacks cover all the bases. If you're going to drink it, definitely warm it up!
