Back to work on 1/6, and it's only Thursday... But this label🏷️ really stands out when I open the fridge. Before I knew it, I'd opened it🤣 lol. At Sakenowa, many have already posted about this💁—Tadaka's Zodiac Bottle🎠.
The moment I uncorked it... Huh? I didn't get a particularly strong aroma from the bottle itself🤔. Pouring it into a glass, a faint, fresh apple🍎-like fragrance emerges✨. It reminds me of the "Poetry Series" from Oriental Beauty😍. Now, let's take a sip...🤤
A smooth mouthfeel with sweet apple🍎-like acidity, a clean finish with almost no off-flavors or bitterness...✨ The back label's claim of "So delicious it'll make you fly!🍶" makes perfect sense🤭 It's a delicious sake you won't get tired of drinking👍 However, its flavor profile makes it tricky to pair with rich dishes😅
As expected of Tenshu! Its rich flavor permeates your body. It has a refreshing pineapple-like aroma, yet it's distinctly Tenshu, with a subtle characteristic reminiscent of a lactic acid drink. It's free of any off-flavors and extremely easy to drink. A fine sake.
The year-end rush had me worried I'd miss out, but I took a shot in the dark and popped into a liquor store—there it was, sitting right there in the fridge. What a relief! It was so delicious it could fly through the air 🪽 (lol)

This sake was released last January and has been aged in the store for almost a year 🍶.
The first aroma is soft and sweet with a full-bodied aroma typical of Gindakasuobo.
The first sip has a soft, full-bodied sweet aroma that is typical of Gindaiwabosho.
As expected of Tasake, it was delicious. ✨️🍶
By the way, the 6BY Tasake was really delicious, with no disappointments.
I'm looking forward to seeing what kind of tasake they will let us drink this season 😊.
Tonight is the first set of three sake tastings of the new year. We start with a special junmai sake from Aomori made with Yamada Nishiki from Tasake: ❤️
This autumn sake had been sitting in the refrigerator, but it was fruity enough and the aroma was fresh. It has an impression of being a little too sweet, but it is stable and tasty.
