Takasago Junmai Daiginjo
There are many kinds of sake called Takasago.
This is one of the Fuji-Takasago Sake Brewery's
One of a set of inexpensive daiginjos.
It is a dry sake that goes from dry to bitter.
Not enough.
Well, considering the price, it is reasonable.
Opened June 11, 2024
Purchased after tasting at the brewery
A hidden sake only available at the brewery.
The thick sweetness and complexity of the taste^ ^ ^The slight sourness and bitterness accentuate the taste!
It's hard to believe it's Yamahai. ❗️
Personally, I don't like Yamahai, but I can buy this regularly: 🙆♂️
Overwhelming body! But with softness and gentleness: ☺️
It's so good 😋.
I bought this bottle when I went camping in Shizuoka. It is a bottle of Takasago Yamahai Unfiltered Arabashiri.
When I was looking for a sake shop, I found that there was a brewery nearby, so I stopped by the Fuji-Takasago Sake Brewery and bought this bottle.
I was told that most of their sake is dry, but this Yamahai brewed unfiltered Arabashiri was one of the few sweet ones among them. The decisive factor was the "Pirit Juwatto Umamama" on the shoulder label.
It has a freshness and a sweet aroma like banana. The strong flavor and strong taste is probably a characteristic of arabashiri. It seems to be a type that gives a sense of sharpness through its acidity, and although it is not gassy, it leaves a chili chili aftertaste. To me, it was "juwatto, umami, piri piri".
This was probably the first time for me to drink Yamahai sake, but it had a complex and powerful flavor that was different from the sake I have been drinking recently, and I felt it had a strong individuality.
I guess you could say that this is a hearty and robust type of sake. I realized that there are many different types of sake even within the same sake.
I thought I had drunk many brands of sake in my life, but I realized that my knowledge of sake was still limited to a narrow range, perhaps due to my bias toward trends.
