The wine is quite dark amber in color. Aromas of cherry and chocolate. The acidity is moderate and mild. Delicious taste.
Tamagawa Tokubetsu Junmai Gohyakumangoku
From umami to acidity
A robust sake with a good acidity.
Can drink well and sleep well.
My ideal sake!
I have some Omachi at home, but I'll drink it!
#Drinking at home
This is a hiyayagoroshi that I bought last year and let sit for a year.
It has a surprisingly dry aftertaste without the heavyweight flavor with sweetness that is typical of Tamagawa.
It is mellow and has a slightly matured taste.
It lacks the best characteristics of Tamagawa and gives the impression of drinking barley tea.
I like Tamagawa, but I don't want this one.
Postscript
I thought it might turn into a warm barley tea, but it turned out to be a warm barley tea.
It seems to be suitable for fin sake.

The mouthfeel has a unique aroma. It has a strong alcohol taste with a touch of umami and sweetness. It is quite unique and may be different for different tastes. Personally, I like it.
Aged at room temperature, it is interesting. That is why it is so unique.
First time at Tamagawa♪ Junmai brewed with Omachi, a favorite of mine! Aroma: Sweet aroma like syrup...mouthfeel 😅Thick and thick! The rich flavor and sweetness of Omachi is superb! The aftertaste is a nice sourness, which leaves a lingering aftertaste. Since I went to Yamanashi today, I enjoyed the taste of autumn with stewed sakura (horse), akebono soybeans (which are in season now), and simmered dishes....
Good evening, brother. I like sake with seasonal food. I have never seen Tamagawa at a liquor store, but I am curious about it because it is my favorite Omachi. I think the aftertaste of sake is a wonderful part of Japanese culture. I'm sure it's a wonderful part of Japanese culture 😊.
AAJI Good evening 😃Tamagawa was a first for me, but it was a delicious sake 🍶 with a mellow, umami taste... I'm also an omatist, so when I see the word omachi, I immediately reach for it (lol) I will enjoy it with delicious 😋 snacks and sake 😊 from here on out too.
It goes well with warmed sake!
This sake has a moderate spiciness and a richness that is not overpowered by the food, making it a good mid-meal sake.
★★★★
I opened a bottle of Tamagawa that I had purchased at the brewery in the summer and stored in the cellar. After talking to the brewer, I was told that it was recommended to be heated, so I heated it up without hesitation. As usual, I warmed it up to about 45°. The deep yellowish-brown color, deep mature aroma, and unique acidity make it a perfect match for fatty, grilled fish.
I think I'm going to get addicted to Tamagawa's acidity. I would like to try other sake as well.
