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.
Nice to meet you sake🍶.
The aroma is curious 😐 with a little peculiar aroma.
The taste is fruity but not refreshing and the umami of rice comes. The aftertaste leaves a sourness and an amino-type bitterness in the throat that is not alcoholic.
I'm not sure if I'm saying it myself😅.
Bottom line, I'd like to drink it after a couple of days because it feels too ready. If it were 100% sake of my choice... I would give it a 65 🙄.
This is my personal subjective opinion.

Wisteria/black
After a hard day's work, I took a break.
There is a wide variety of sake on the menu,
I'm excited 🥳.
It feels chilly today.
Let's order Chanko-nabe first 😆.
Here's the starter.
It was dry with a strong character with a tune.
It was a profound sensation.
You can drink from noon on New Year's break 😁.
Asaguchi, Okayama Prefecture. Marumoto Sake Brewery Co.
Takebayashi catharsis.
I met this brewery at a Japanese sake festival at Takashimaya and became a fan the moment I drank it.
If you like sweet and juicy, you will definitely like this 😊.
Recently, they have been holding a "Moromi Gazing Party" at the brewery, where you can just stare at the surface of the fermenting moromi.
It is served cold.
The color is a little yellowish, so I think it has matured a little 😅.
The top aroma is slightly sweet ginjo aroma.
The mouthfeel is smooth, and the rich honey-like sweetness is impressive, but a little different from what I had before.
The rich sweetness is mellowed and the aroma on the nose gives the impression of maturity.
The sweetness lingers on the palate for a long time, and even though it has a slightly matured taste, it is still a delicious dessert sake.
But from now on, I'll drink it earlier...
Ingredients:Rice(domestic),Rice malt(domestic)

Nemuchi, good evening 😃
Moromi mitsumemakukai, sounds interesting and kinky 🤣This is another one I missed out on 😭.
I went to Takashimaya but they don't sell it 🙄.
bouken, good evening 🌛I heard that you can empty your head like meditation or zazen and keep looking at the bubbles of moromi 😁I think you can buy all kinds of bamboo groves if you join the moromi staring group 🤣.
Good evening, Nemuchi-san, I'm anxious to close out the year with a review full of love for bamboo groves 😍Moromi Gazing Party. Are you going to attend after all? I look forward to seeing you again next year 🙏.
Hi Hirupeko, ☀Bamboo Forest is a sweet and juicy favorite 😋 You must be wondering about the meeting to stare at morsels and the mysterious brewery experience 😁 It's too far for me to join 😅 I hope to see you again this year 🙏.
Pure Organic
The aroma is reminiscent of fresh apples. From the clear mouthfeel, an elegant acidity spreads and gently finishes with umami and bitterness.
Both the rice and koji rice are organically grown. It is elegant but also umami and drinkable.
★★★★★
At a sake bar.
Is the rarity high?
At room temperature.
Very matured taste with a good weight. The aftertaste is normal.
I would like to try it hot next time.
Suitable for intermediate sake drinkers.
mature and mild
A soft aroma like cotton or steamed rice. After a mild, mellow mouthfeel, a refreshing, elegant sweetness spreads, and from there, the umami spreads with the same aroma and flavor as the top shelf. After a tangy, spicy taste, it finishes with a slight bitterness and a lingering spicy aftertaste.
This sake has been aged at low temperature for 8 months after pressing. I buy this sake when it is released to enjoy its unique mellowness. The impression is that the mildness and sweetness are balanced by the spiciness.

The 6th Japanese Sake Festival @ Osaka Bay Tower ⑤.
Marumoto Shuzo / "Takebayashi" Okayama Prefecture
Reunited with the brewery owner who I had promised at the Takashimaya Sake Festival.
I'm glad he remembered me as someone who complimented me a lot 🤣.
Since the last sake festival, Marumoto Sake Brewery has been hitting it out of the park with their rich, sweet and delicious sake.
At least I've had it before, but I reconfirmed its deliciousness.
Takebayashi Karoyaka Oshoro Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama-shu
I found on the Internet that it is an unfiltered, unpasteurized sake that has been aged at a low temperature for one year. This one has "Karoyaka" in the brand name, but it is the best with a rich sweet flavor.
Takebayashi Karoyaka
Junmai Daiginjo specs, not rich in sweetness and flavor. The aroma is gorgeous, but it is rather mild and refreshing just like the brand name.
Takebayashi catharsis
It's still delicious. I like it from the moment I read the aroma. The concentrated sweetness and richness is the best 😋.
Bubu Bubu Sake
With 5% alcohol content, you can enjoy it just like a juice. Even weak drinkers can enjoy it.
In my opinion, it was the best because I liked it no matter what I drank👍.
Hi, Nemuchi-san. It's great that you promised to meet again at Takashimaya and you really did 😆 It's the happiest thing for a sake drinker to be able to find a brewery that you like no matter what you drink💕.
Hi Hirupeko, ☀Hello ☀The kura was only open on the day I attended the festival, so they promised to remember me 😆 I took the liberty of promoting it to the owner of the restaurant I went to after the Japanese Sake Festival.
I also promoted it as a recommendation to the owner of the restaurant I went to after the Japanese Sake Festival 🤣.
Local sake from Okayama follows.
Yamada-Nishiki grown in-house is polished to 50%. The sake is left to mature slowly at low temperatures for about a year until it becomes mild and full-flavored before shipping.
It has a mellow mouthfeel, so is it Oshatoro?
It has a fresh taste and is delicious.

The 6th Japanese Sake Festival @ Osaka Bay Tower ⑤.
Takebayashi made a good impression at the Takashimaya Sake Festival.
The same staff was there.
We drank the following
Takebayashi Karoyaka Oshatoro Junmai Ginjo
It is fire-aged but has a gaseous taste and is very sweet and tasty.
I think everyone likes it.
Takebayashi catharsis Junmai Daiginjo (not pictured)
I regretted not buying it after drinking it at the Takashimaya Sake Festival. It was just as good this time, but I personally prefer the Daishatoro by a narrow margin.
Awasake Sake Stripe
I've seen this before at Aeon, but this is the first time I've had it.
It is a low-alcohol sparkling sake that is easy to drink.
I didn't buy Takebayashi this time either 😭
I'll have to buy it next time I see it 💦.
