4.1★★★★☆
This is a dessert sake with a mild sweetness and a nice aroma, perhaps because it is made with super soft water. It has a mild sweetness and a nice aroma. It is not too sweet, but it does have a slightly spicy aftertaste. Delicious!
I bought this sake to try a sake from Shinshu, a region I was not familiar with.
After purchasing it, I checked the label on the back to see what the specs were.
⁉️...no label.
It looks like it was removed 😅.
Takizawa is a mysterious sake.
It had a clear sweetness with a strong rice flavor and a nice aroma 😆.
I bought the same one before, but it had a label on the back, 55% polished rice ratio, 16% alcohol. It was delicious, with a nice aroma and a clean aftertaste.
A refreshing and pleasant sake.
I had it with soba noodles.
It has a strong aftertaste, but it's not unpleasant.
I drink it when I want to get drunk right away!
First time drinking Takizawa at home. Fruity apple aroma.
The supernatant is slightly fresh and has a deep, mild, grape-like juiciness.
Although it is called nigari, the ooze is not much and seems to be a light nigari. After the orikake is added, the mouthfeel becomes softer and lighter, with a petit-fresh, clear pineapple and melon-like mouthfeel, but later the heaviness of the 17% sake comes in.
The bitterness at the end may increase as the temperature rises.
It is labeled as soft water, but the mouthfeel is moderately bouncy.
The rice is plump, which is typical of junmai sake.
It has an umami taste and a sharp bitterness soon after. It has a slightly strong attack.
After the bitterness subsides, the taste becomes gradually sweeter.
There is a slight chemical aroma at the back of the throat.
