It tastes more like sweet and refreshing fruit wine than sake.

Older sake-lovers may find it harsh, but I urge people who don't like sake to try it for themselves.
This is a great opportunity to expand the range of people who can drink sake, and I hope resellers will find it!
Katahune. Katahune?
Yes, I came across it 15 years ago, and I can't find it.
I came across it on Makomanai Nemoto Sake Shop's website by chance.
Do you have it in Susukino?
What? I can't find "Katafune" on the fridge!
I ask the waiter... What? What's this?
It's a 🖼️ label?
Eh, I can't catch up with my understanding!
And so, the comedy resumes, "Katafune"!
Bon appétit ☺️
I have a vivid memory of a long time ago, of somehow being at a sake discounter and being told that the sake was
I have a vivid memory of "delicious" at the sake counter.
This sake is also good, drunken, lingering.
I don't remember it like this. But it's good!
It's sooooo good!
There were still various "Katafune" in the shoe case.
This is a wolf's smoke of conquest!
This is the best sake I've had recently.
Organic wine-like yeastiness, pleasant on the palate, full flavor, and a nice balance with a bitterness that slowly develops over the finish.
Souzake. It was so good that I couldn't tell the difference between it and junmai or junmai ginjo sake! It has a slightly bitter taste, but is clean and easy to drink without any cloying taste!
Takeda Sake Brewery Joetsu City, Niigata Prefecture
The aroma is fruity, with a beautiful floral note derived from alcohol.
The taste is very intense. Sake lovers will love it.
It is a mellow sweet sake. Since it was produced in December, it also has a rich umami flavor, like a matured or a few-day-old sake.
It is considered to go well with salty snacks.
I bought some Fukaya leeks, so I'm having sukiyaki tonight. The leeks are the star of the show tonight, but the dry honjozo sake goes well with the sake "Katafune"...sukiyaki.
This is my first new Katafune sake.
It is fresh and punchy!
The black label one has a gentle flavor that you don't get tired of drinking, but as expected of new sake, it seems to have a stronger taste.
The alcohol content is just under 17%, so sipping a little is just right.

The aroma comes in clearly, pretending to be strong, but the aroma that lingers afterwards seems to be a well brewed aroma.
It may be the lightness on the palate, or it may be the gap between the aroma and the aftertaste.
It was fun to let it play with itself repeatedly, accompanied by a slightly peculiar sake snack.
I enjoyed it with pickled firefly squid.
