Izakaya near Kyushu University Hospital Rare Hokkaido Sake Drink cold Clear and colorless Almost no aroma On the palate, it has a firm richness with a dryness. It leaves a sharp dry taste in the mouth, but it finishes quickly. When warmed, it has a full-bodied flavor, but the overall impression is light.

Purchased at the brewery on a recent trip to Hokkaido. Basically, it is only available in Otaru. (Mail order is available). The white label is regular junmai, and the red label is umakuchi junmai. When I tasted the white label at the brewery, I was under the impression that the taste was rather refreshing and calm, but... When I heated the sake I purchased, I got a very favorable impression of the flavor. Especially the red label is very good. It was a pleasant discovery.

We tasted a lot of sake at Kitaichi Glass Outlet, a nice local sake shop in Otaru. They had a wide variety of sake from Hokkaido, including Niagara (wine) from Otaru Brewery, plum wine, and mirin (sweet sake) made by a sake brewery. There were also a lot of sake from Otaru Brewery, Umeshu (Japanese plum wine), and Hon Mirin (Japanese sweet cooking rice wine) made by a sake brewery! Since I was in Otaru, I bought a bottle of Otaru's only sake brewery, Tanaka Shuzo's Takaragawa, and a bottle of Takasago Shuzo's Umeshu (plum wine), which makes Niagara and Kokushimusou. I was surprised to learn that ume (plum) wine is also made at a sake brewery. I didn't know that was possible. I would like to hear about it. I was impressed to see all the sake breweries in Hokkaido! Thank you Otaru! I bought a lot of sake. Update: 2024/09/08↓↓↓↓↓ After the above, I went home and drank some Takaragawa! Let me write about my impression at that time. It was the first aroma I have ever smelled in a sake...it was rightly vanilla. I didn't know such a sake existed. It was so delicate and so delicious that even after drinking it, I felt like there was still something in the depths of the bottle. The production date was only 3 months ago. It is my favorite sake. I have been an adult for two years now, and for the first time I can confidently answer the question, "What is your favorite sake? I can answer with confidence. I'm sure I will have many more encounters with various kinds of sake in the future ( ´˘` ).

When the members of the Sake-no-wa Ataoka Mahjong team visited Hokkaido, we visited Tanaka Shuzo Kameko-gura in Otaru and purchased this sake ❗ The nostalgic streets of Otaru and a long-aged sake is a romantic experience 🎵. When you pour it into a glass, it has a strong candy color 🍭 and when you drink it, you can feel the richness unique to aged sake 😋. Otaru is a popular tourist destination in Hokkaido! If you are in Otaru, please visit Tanaka Sake Brewery ❗There are many other interesting sake products as well 😉.

Good evening, Mr. Noodle King 🌛. I remember when I went to Hokkaido for the first time, the first stop was Otaru and Sapporo 😁. It's a shame I wasn't into sake back then 💦. I was also surprised that the distance between Betsukai and Otaru is almost 500k!
