Despite its cute name and appearance, it is quite unique. It has a sharp acidity and bitterness that hits you and leaves you with a crisp taste. Delicious!
This is the first time for you, Takejaku🐦️.
The first aroma is a sweet aroma of malted rice with a slightly matured aroma.
When you put it in your mouth, it has a moderate sweetness of rice and a strong umami.
It has a good umami.
The aroma is a bit peculiar, but it is quite delicious 🍶.

I bought it because the label looks just like a mahjong player's "Iso Houou-sama" (a phoenix), and I was curious about it. I was curious to buy it because of its resemblance to the "Ichiso Phoenix" of Mahjong.
It is dry with a slight fizziness.
It is dry, but has a richness and umami.
Hmmm, not bad. (Sorry for my bravado, but I'm not a big fan.)
I would like to try this local sake again.
I will buy it again when I see it.
Hello Mr. Sana D.
The master of the restaurant recommended Tagaji and Takejaku to me and I became a fan of both at first sight.
I drank Tagaji and Takejaku and became a fan of both at first sight.
I recommend Tagaji too!
Hi Uncle Jiang, Hello ❗️
Thank you for the information.
I had a good impression of Tagaji once before, too. I still don't know of any stores that take it up!

［We had a drink at the end of the first half of the 5+α category drinking comparison.
Takejaku": "Takejaku" is a pure rice sake with a clear rice aroma and a rich, full mouthfeel.
A clear rice aroma, a full mouthfeel, a firm soft umami, and a sharp and gentle aftertaste.
It's been about a year since the new road connecting Ikeda-cho, Ibigawa-gun, Gifu Prefecture, where Otsuka Shuzo, the brewer of Takejaku, is located, opened to traffic.
I'll give it a try next year 😁.
5th!
Another year of professional baseball leagues has come to an end: ⚾️
The Pacific League is still left though!
Our Swallows are on thin ice in 5th place😇.
We made the Central League exciting again this year until the last game 🤣.
I can't thank Chunichi enough 🙏.
Not swallows but bamboo chun🐦.
Not much sweetness, but acidity from the rich flavor,
And the second half is dry and dry!
A summer sake that is crisp and clean ✨.
I recommend Takejaku 😋.
