A collaboration between Fukuoka's Tanaka Rokugo and Tochigi's Sengoku. This time, it seems to be a combination of rice from Fukuoka's Itoshima and Sengoku's sake brewed from a live yeast.
It has a strong rice flavor and a round, watery taste with a lingering aftertaste. It was a sake that went well with a delicious meal.
Perhaps I am a bit unfair to this sake as it has been consumed after drinking some sweeter sake. This makes it taste very plain - water like smoothness with very pale ginjo taste. Most prominent is the yogurt and cream lactic acid feel that I believe coming from the Kimoto method of senkin. Perhaps I need to find another chance to taste it properly.
Tonight, I would like to open a bottle of a collaboration sake from these two breweries 💁.
Tanaka Sengyo Itoshima pesticide-free Yamadanishiki Junmai Sake ver. 2021✨✨✨
Tanaka Rokugo/Itoshima's Itoshima Sake Brewery and Senkyu's collaboration sake, but as you can see, 2 years have passed 😅...
I think it's fire-brewed, so I'll drink it without worrying about it. First of all, the aroma has pear, muscat, gourd, rice grain aroma, lactic acidity from the sake yeast, and a little honey maturation aroma, which gives the impression of increased complexity due to 2 years of age 😊.
The taste is delicious 😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋 The aftertaste is very good with umami, richness and tangy dry accent by makashi and maturity👍
I thought it was a bit like Senkyoku, but it was made by Itoshima Sake Brewery, so it makes sense. (I thought it was a bit like Senkou, but since it is made by Itoshima Sake Brewery, it makes sense.
I was hesitant because it is a bit expensive 💰,
The rest of my juniors brought it to a drinking party 😂.
Sake 🍶 boom around me recently ⁉️
They say it's my fault...
They drank Ottersai, Kenkunichi, AKABU, and even Shinmasa from my sake cellar 😱.
I'm glad they all enjoyed the sake though 🍶.
But they just noticed the delicious sake 🍶😤.
And my first Tanaka Sentori💕I had heard rumors about it.
It didn't have any of the sourness of Sentori, it was more dry than Tanaka Rokugo 🍶❣️
Slightly sweet, fruity, sharp, gentle and beautiful 🍶.
It was delicious... Thanks to my junior staff. ‼️
Good morning, Mr. Muro 😃.
You were lucky to drink what you hesitated to drink because it was expensive ✌️ and you noticed delicious sake! That's right ‼️ drinking with friends is good 🤗 even though there seems to be more to drink 😆.
Good morning, Dr. Jay & Nobby 🍶.
I'm glad to hear that you've found sake 🍶 to be so delicious to your juniors 🥹.
My friends and juniors who came to our house say I'm an anomaly 😱 compliments ❣️
