Ikusakaya Shinshu Secret Sake Hanpukai
Takaten First Strike typeD
Gentle aroma like white grapes.
It has a gentle sweetness and flavor, and is pleasant to drink. Slightly sweet and gentle taste. The lingering aftertaste is also moderately pleasant 😊.
changing for the better
Quite nice aroma, like fresh fruit. Sticky and alcohol-derived numbness on the tongue. A bit of bitterness stands out.
When ice is added, it transforms into a sweet, soft, and refreshing taste. A great sake that can be drunk endlessly when paired with a meal. Umeyesu. Perfect for summer.
Takaten recommends high alcohol content sakes, including this one, to be drunk on the rocks. The locals also serve regular sake on the rocks, though.
Purchased at a sake brewery. The urban area of Okaya.

Let's drink it. The green bottle is a beautiful Takaten.
I thought it was sweet, and when I put it in my mouth, I was surprised to find that it was rich and had strong bitterness and acidity. And while eating rice, it gradually became sweeter and sweeter.
When I drank it at a bar in Nagano, I thought it was sweet but it was bitter😅.
Well, Thursday I went to Hamasta🐯...
I had such good seats that I could see the cheerleaders' abs...
Good evening, Hanapin-san.
Can you dance or something? ✨
It seems like at home, in between times, everyone dances and gets pulled out by the camera to get a picture.
Meanwhile 🐯fans are either drinking beer or going to the bathroom😅.
Good evening, Mr. Manachy 🌉.
The 🐯 fans in front of me were waving to the cheerleaders.
The people nearby were buying from their favorite 🍺 vendor and fell asleep at the scene of the excitement🤣They didn't wake up even after the game was over.
Ane-san.
That was a disappointing loss 💦.
I guess you drank too much alcohol and didn't cheer enough. 🤣Drinking 🍺 while watching a baseball game is delicious...
Good evening, Ane-san, good seats at 3rd base ✨Nice play by Maki that day 😏I've never had Takaten, but it looks delicious. It's a nice name that sounds like it will fly off the shelves: ⚾️
Good morning, Koizo-san!
My colleague who lives in Kannai said "I heard you cheering in the top of the 9th inning" 😅
Even though we lost, the drinks after the game were delicious 🍺.
Good morning, missamisao 🌼
It was a day when Maki got me 💧The collaboration lunch box with Sakiyo-ken looks delicious but...
I'm seat K in infield A ✨Fun seat.
Takaten, I often see you in Nagano, so next time you come back home, please come 💚
Takaten Shuzo, Okaya City, Nagano Prefecture, Japan - Freshly Shiboritate Unfiltered Nama Sake
A fresh aroma with a good balance of acidity and sweetness.
Even though it is a pure sake, it is not heavy, and you can drink it smoothly and enjoyably.
Today's sake is from Takaten❗️ in Okaya City, Nagano Prefecture, and its jungin❗️ is also an unfiltered raw sake❗️❗️
The aroma is fresh and sweet with a hint of ginjo❗️ and the sip has a dense texture followed by a spicy raw tingling sensation❗️ and the ginjo aroma escapes through the nose❗️❗️ and is great as a food sake❤️
