Slightly fruity and refreshing on the palate.
It is easy to drink with a strong umami taste afterwards.
I used to enjoy drinking Ding from the same brewery.
Takizawa is also very tasty!
I bought this sake at a liquor store in town during a trip to Nagano. It is a sake with the unique flavor of junmai sake and a touch of sweetness. It goes well with fatty dishes.

Takizawa's booth.
I asked him, "Which should I drink first? I asked, "Well, let's start from the end," and we drank all kinds of sake.
It seems that the brewery uses ultra soft water to brew their sake.
Kuroyoso.
It has a strong umami, mild, sweet, and full flavor. This is my favorite type. It is one of the Shuho Kikumori brands.
Takizawa Tokuso (Honjozo)
Not at all like a honjozo, but it has an unadorned taste. It has a good balance of umami and sweet richness.
Takizawa Junmai
The rich umami spreads from the slight acidity typical of junmai.
Takizawa Tokubetsu Junmai
In my opinion, it has an orthodox Junmai taste and has little impact.
Takizawa Junmai Ginjo
Fruity at the beginning, sweetness, umami, bitterness, and richness spread one after another, and the end is sharp and clean. This is my favorite type.
Takizawa Junmai Daiginjo
Less fruity and too refreshing.
I also asked about the Ding, and it seems that the production is small and only 12 stores in Japan carry it, and the brewery does not sell it, and there are 4 stores in Nagano. I guess the best way to buy it is online...

I found this one recommended by a good local sake lover who was my neighbor at an izakaya in Ueda when I went on my last shopping tour in Nagano 😊I found this one on this bullet tour 😊The young man said it was purple Takizawa, but... this is the one, right?
Well, here it is,
It has a strong sweet flavor reminiscent of pineapple, banana and dark cherries😊It has a spicy aftertaste with a bit of herbiness, and is very assertive, but it seems to go well with everything. It's the day of the Ox in Doyou, so I'm going to have it with eel stew... 😊.

As soon as the seal is opened, the fruity aroma spreads, and when you put it in your mouth, you can feel the soft sweetness with a slight effervescence.
It has a clear, dry taste without being sweet. It is a sake that makes me happy to know that it is made with really good water and produced by a serious brewer.
I had it cold.
When I asked the liquor store if they had a "fruity one", they recommended this one.
I asked the liquor store if they had any "fruity ones" and they recommended this one!
I don't really feel the aroma.
I don't know what it tastes like. I don't know how to describe it.
I can't describe it, but when it leaves my nose
I feel it is fruity.
It's very mysterious and tasty.
That's my impression.
I had it with yodarechicken, mozuku vinegar, and zucchini stewed in tomato sauce.
All of them are delicious.
A really mysterious and delicious one.
Thank you very much for the feast.
