I visited a sake gathering event and was allowed to taste and purchase some sake.
It is a bit precious because there are no distributors in the area where I live 😆.
The aroma is mildly fruity.
The mouthfeel is slightly fruity to malty and mellow, followed by a light bitterness that tingles the tongue and leaves a firm lingering taste on the nose.
The description says it has a unique and addictive mellow flavor, and that is exactly what it tastes like.
It is the kind of sake that makes you want another and another.
I was told that the sake was purchased at the Niigata Sake-no-jin, so I will have it.
I have never seen it before.
I am not familiar with Takananishiki either.
It's nice in a classic way. When I was younger, I might have disliked it, but I seem to have developed a more mature palate 👅.

The sweet aroma of rice is followed by a refreshingly sour taste. It has a refreshingly sour taste and a thick, refreshing taste with a thick, refreshing finish.
A gift from someone at work.
It was a sake made from Takane-nishiki, a sake rice I had never heard of.
It seemed to have a refreshing acidity, but it disappeared later.
I paired it with Thai carpaccio, octopus, soy sauce, olive oil, and wasabi, and the sweetness and flavor increased!
It became very mellow and delicious!
I had a good impression of Yamada-Nishiki a long time ago, so I decided to buy it since I hadn't seen it for a while.
I've seen it, but it's often not a draft sake, but a stored sake 💦.
I searched for someone who had had this and found it was Nemuchi 😁.
It has a mild umami flavor. I can't put it into words but it's a strange taste. I think Yamadanishiki has more sweetness.

100% Takananishiki
The aroma is not strong, and the sweetness is firm. However, it is not too sweet, so it can be used as a food sake. You will not get tired of drinking it.
