It's a New Year, so Kotobuki
It's not the year of the tiger.
After drinking a bottle of Tasake, it was even more refreshing and dry.
The master of this store is Torakichi, so there is always a tiger label.
Yamagata, Shiboritate, Nama-zake, Ootora, dry, and many other words are thrown around, but when I actually tasted it, I was surprised.
It's a bit floral, but it's mild and gentle.
It is not too raw and the pungency is very slight.
There is a slight acidity, and although it is moderate, it has a youthfulness that is different from the mild umami that we usually drink, and it makes us feel like we are drinking it slowly with young employees.
By the way, there is no Otora feeling at all.
This kind of taste is also nice.
No aroma.
It is said to be quite dry...but I don't feel it much because it tastes like rice.
It's refreshing and doesn't linger.
Very good as a food sake.
I would like to put it in my mouth in the order of side dishes, then rice, and finally pour it down with this....
The calories are too much...
Toraya was founded in the early 1700s by Onuma Sozaemon I. He took over the Ishiyama warehouse founded at the end of the Genroku era (1688-1704) and operated it as the Sagae factory. This Sagae warehouse was spun off into an independent branch in 1922 and became the current "Chiyozu Toraya Co.
