There are various theories as to the origin of "Rakurakutsuru," but it is said that the name "Rakurakutsuru" is derived from the name of a place called "Sasaura" near Kinosaki Hot Spring located about 20 km from the brewery, the name of the villa of the lord of Izushi Castle, Lord Sengoku, called "Rakurakuen," and the name of sake, "Rakuraku," which is also called "Sasazuru. The name of the villa is said to be "Rakurakuen" and the word for sake is "Rakuraku". The word "crane" is said to refer to the storks that lived in this area.
The top aroma has a strong alcohol flavor.
It is a very rich and mellow sake, as it is a pure sake. I don't want to compare it to other sake, but it has the feel of mellow shochu or spirits. However, it is a sake (I don't like the term "sake", so I call it "alcohol"), so it is somewhat mellow, not that harsh alcohol.
It's easy to drink, so you can gobble it down with a gulp, and (for me) it's a bit of a kick.
Sour! Not at all
Not sweet at all!
It is surely delicious even if it is cooled down to a crisp!
It will be good not only for Japanese food but also for Italian and French food...,
Delicious!
This sake is from Tajima and Izushi in Hyogo Prefecture.
I wish I could go to see the Sea of Japan in Tajima after a long time.
The aroma is strong. It has a strong old-fashioned sake flavor.
When you put it in your mouth, the hiney aroma is all over the place.
The sweetness that comes in the second breath is strong. The sweetness is quite firm.
However, the sweetness that rushes through with the aroma disappears in the fourth breath, leaving behind a slight pungency, a slight astringency, and other flavors.
This is a good feeling. A solid sake.
From a business trip today. No microwave. Room temperature only.
Shall we take another bath and go to the after-party?
I have been a member of Sake no Wa for 6 months.
I've been reading alcohol very wrong... 🐶.
This one is called "Sasazuru," but I thought it was Rakurakuzuru until I opened it!
It's a very robust sake.
I was told that this brewery used to serve sake to the lord of Izushi Castle. It was founded in 1708!
