We pray that the brewery will be able to resume sake production as soon as possible. It is a dry sake with a strong rice flavor and a crisp, dry taste.
Mr. Karp-kun. Nice to meet you & good evening! The news reports are all about Noto, but Himi City was also quite damaged, and I will look for Takazawa Sake Brewery and hope that they will resume sake production as soon as possible.
Temperature Estimated 5°C
Taste 70%.
Color Orangey yellow
Nose: Not really my favorite, as it feels a little old-fashioned.
Taste: Like the aroma, it tastes a little like old sake, and is a little bit bitter. The aftertaste is sweet and sour like apples, which reduces the harshness.
Overall impression: It is not a sake that goes well with sake alone, but it is a good sake to drink while eating yakitori or other dishes.
There are Braille characters on the back of the bottle, but what are they?

My colleague at work said he was going on a business trip to Toyama Prefecture, so I asked him cutely and jokingly 🙇 to buy "Katsuma" for me if he found it, and he really went to the liquor store and asked, but of course it is not sold normally😅.
He felt bad and bought me this one instead, saying it is a sake that is not sold outside of his hometown 🥰.
I looked up the price to thank him, but it seems that the sales channel is not very wide, and it is not always available, but the price is reasonable for a junmai sake 😊.
But why not label it as junmai ginjo even though it has a 55% rice polishing ratio 🥹?
Now drink it cold as usual.
Yeah, it's like water💦‼️
I said this is a sake to be drunk warmed or at room temperature...so I warmed it up to lukewarm and it bloomed a little 🌸.
Personally, I prefer sakes that have a more umami rice flavor, but sakes that go down smoothly like this are also good sometimes 🥰.
I give Nabe-sama back to my co-workers👌
3KAN4ON, good evening 🌇It's a quintessence that you don't break the map painting beautifully even if it's a gift 😆 On the contrary, I'm happy to drink these totally unknown drinks👍.
Good evening 3KAN4ON ((˶ᐢ∇ᐢ˶)ฅ👒🌱
I got some Katsuma in Tochigi, but I didn't know it was a rare sake until then😅.
I guess you can't buy it there either 💦.
It might be nice to have a unique local sake as a souvenir: ☺️
Good evening, Mr. Manachy 🌆.
Map painting is a decision to leave it for a few months if it's buried 🥹.
It's nice to be able to enjoy drinks you would never buy yourself if they were given to you 😍.
Good evening, 3KAN4ON!
I think 3KAN4ON is a good person for both your colleague who buys you sake that you can't buy except locally instead of buying it and 3KAN4ON who returned the nabe-sama 😊It's a wonderful relationship 👍✨.
Good evening, Pon-chan!
He is a skinhead 👩🦲 and always wears a black suit and looks like a yafatza, but he is a very kind coworker with a very gentle way of speaking and personality😍.
I was wondering if I could buy him some more rare sake 💦 if I sent him a potsherd.
Good morning, 3KAN4ON 😃.
Yesterday, we also had a sake that felt like water! We also tried to imitate it and heated it up 🍶 and it turned out to be very tasty 🤗.

Impression・・It was not my favorite at first with cold sake. Now I drink it cold and it's delicious.
Rare type with only 240 bottles produced.
It is sweet and has a refreshing muscat aroma.
It has a refreshing taste and a sweet and tasty sensation.
It has a crisp acidity and leaves a refreshing
It has a crisp acidity and leaves a refreshing white wine-like feeling after the sweet and tasty sensation.
It is a sake with a unique image.
It was delicious. I will repeat again.
As the name Akebono suggests, Toyama sake with a distinctive sunrise label.
This is a sake from Himi City, famous for its cold yellowtail,
It is a dry brand of sake from the sea, but the fruity taste of Junmai Daiginjo adds a nice salty flavor.
When it is cooled down to a crisp, the fruity flavor stands out and the spiciness comes later, and when it comes to room temperature, the spiciness becomes more noticeable.
I had it with hot tofu and spinach with sesame paste as a side dish✨.

The label is cute.
The aroma is modest and gradually sweet, and the finish is clean and refreshing with a touch of sourness. It tastes like it would go well with sashimi.

Today we had a farewell party for one of my seniors at work who came from Tokyo to support us 🥩🔥 and while we were eating, we got an earthquake alert😱 There were 7 of us and 14 company and personal cell phones started ringing at once😰 The shaking was not serious so it was a relief 😮💨 but.., Alerts always surprise me 😵.
I'm always surprised by alerts 🤵🤵 After coming home, today I had my first glass of Akebono sake from Himi, Toyama Prefecture😃The aroma is mild🤔It seems to have a little bit of gas 😊It has a good balance of rich flavor and firm acidity 😚👍The taste is robust and lingering, and you can really taste it 😘This is a delicious sake 😘. It is a delicious sake 🥳.
Good evening, Maechen.
I'm sure you'll be surprised and sober when you hear the alert 💦 but I'm really glad it wasn't a big quake 🙏.
I'm sure you'll have a nice drink at home 😊👍
Good morning, Ponchan 🌅😃.
Alerts are always a surprise to hear 👀I'm working in Pearl Island for about a week from today 😭Please don't have a big earthquake 🙏.
This is a 🏇 derby-watching companion.
The rice used is Gohyakumangoku from Toyama Prefecture
It has a slightly matured and astringent taste, and is crisp and clean.
The sweetness was subdued.
The design of the cup is also nice and wholesome.
This year's Derby was a tragedy.
It's a shame... Sincerely yours
98th cup of sake
Good morning, Mr. Pon-chan.
I was so impressed by the beauty of the scenery, even though I was watching it through a screen.
The taste of alcohol was also blown away.
It has a strong acidity and a unique taste.
The rice polishing ratio seems to be 70%, giving it a coarseness.
It gives the impression of being somewhat peculiar.
It is a brewery in Himi. The label design is good! I think it is an image of Akebono (dawn) from the Tateyama mountain range seen from Toyama Bay. It has a nice aroma and flavor. We will enjoy it slowly. The sake lees given to us at the brewery is delicious. It still has a good flavor and I use it for various dishes!
