I've always been curious about it because I often see it at Takashimaya, but this is my first time to drink it.
The rice is Asahi rice and Yamadanishiki. It is fresh and has a strong sweet flavor, but the aroma and taste are a bit unique. I also feel a bit of hardness. I'll give it some more time and see how it goes.
Apple and honey-like sweetness with a sense of thickening.

Fruity with a gorgeous aroma. Sweet, juicy and a little bitter at the end. It's really tasty.
I drink Takebayashi more often at events than at home, but I never miss it.

It is heated to a high temperature.
It's what I call a good heated sake. It's just plain good.

What do you think of Okayama Prefecture's sake?
That's right, bamboo groves!
Okayama is famous for its Omachi sake rice, but this brewery seems to brew their sake with home-grown Yamada Nishiki. This time it will be a summer sake made with Asahi sake rice✨.
First of all, the label is too beautiful 😆 The starry sky looks great in the summer night sky 🌟, so we opened the bottle!
The first aroma is like a fresh green apple. When you put it in your mouth, you will feel the light citrus sweetness for a moment, and then the sourness and bitterness will spread in your mouth. It is just like a summer sake and goes down the throat very nicely! Well, it is really light!
Unfortunately, it is cloudy tonight and we can't see the stars, but I thought it would be nice to look at the summer night sky while drinking this sake 😆.
Thank you for the drink 😋.

おいしい！

Light on the palate, with good aroma and acidity.
It is not only light, but also has a core of umami from the rice.
and it seems to be easy to match with food as well.

OSAKA SAKE & FOOD EXPO 2024⑰.
This is the booth of Marumoto Sake Brewery, a sake brewery in Okayama.
The company cultivates its own rice through "San-Ou rice cultivation" (organic cultivation in which the rice is starved three times).
They also make a very sweet sake, which is my favorite, and I talked to them 3-4 times in total.
Takebayashi Junmai Ginjoshu Organic EARTH SCIENCE.
The moment I drank it, it had a sense of maturity, but it was full of sweetness and umami. When I asked him about it, he said it had been aged for about 2 years. It was still delicious 😋.
I couldn't talk much with the brewer this time, but I told him that they are promoting their products.

This Sake is sweet like syrup. It has a full and juicy mouth feel and a mild flavor of cherries. Maybe vanilla? 🤔 The finish is a little acidic which helps cleanse the pallet.

Gentle and mellow junmai sake. It was served cold. It goes well with sashimi, simmered dishes, and other gentle-flavored dishes.

OSAKA SAKE & FOOD EXPO 2024⑭
Marumoto Sake Brewery's booth.
The same people from Takashimaya and the Japanese Sake Festival were there, and when Nemuchi-san greeted them, the brewery staff seemed to remember him😊.
Sake made with organic Yamadanishiki.
It's delicious, but I can feel it's been aged for quite a while...
Did I mention it's aged for a year?
I looked up this sake and found very little information about it 🤔...
I left the booth with only this sake since I had already had many other sake at other events... 🤔...
〜Postscript
It was 2 years old! Sorry 💦.

It was recommended to me at the store😊.
Takebayashi has the image of a hiragana 4-letter brand, but it's a spring-only sake and the name "Hoshi-Oboro" is cool, so I chose to drink it w
It has a moderate umami taste with a touch of acidity and astringency, making it easy to drink overall!
I paired it with a smoked fish appetizer, and yes, it's good! 👍
I'll keep that in mind!

At a restaurant with the best fish in front of Okayama Station (No. 2).
It tastes like shochu. It is best when paired with strong-flavored fish.
It is said that it is not often sold outside Okayama.
