Taman proudly offers a summer draft of this sake, discovered at Miuraya in Kichijoji. The aroma is refreshing. The aroma is refreshing, the taste is sweet, and the bitterness is impressive. I drank it cold, but I have a feeling it will be above average in any way it is drunk, as the label says. Isn't this an excellent all-rounder? Is this a product for supermarkets or mass retailers? I didn't find it sold directly by the brewery or in online stores.

The sweetness and richness of this sake was so good that everyone was shouting "yummy! The taste was so good that we couldn't help but shout out "yummy" together.

The label has a nice retro feel to it. The aroma is sweet from the first whiff. The aroma is standard, but it has a sweet and umami taste with a full-bodied flavor. It is also delicious.
I heard that even sake shops that are members of the Japan Meimon Sake Association don't have much of this brand. The owner of a sake shop was just in town, so I gave him a bottle, telling him that he should be able to get it because it is a member of the Meimon Shuzukai (Japan Famous Sake Association).
I heard that Sasaki Shuzo Gomei Kaisha in Ehime has the same brand of Yaegiku, but it seems that the brewery is closed now.

Tamanjutsu, which is my personal favorite sake.
The problem is that you can't get it in Kansai.
It's a member of the Meimon Sake Association, but you rarely see it at liquor stores that are members of the Meimon Sake Association...
I drank
Tamanboast Junmai Daiginjo

Drink it because of its classic label.
This sake is a reissue of a sake from the Morita Sake Brewery that used to brew in Akiruno City. It is said that they are related to Morita Sake Brewery.
I thought it was an arugula, but it is a junmai sake. I searched for it and found out that it is an aged sake.
It is sweet and round with a strong umami flavor.
The official website says it is out of stock and the next shipment will be after September 2013.
Tamanjutsu is still good.

A gift from a friend, the second of a set of three bottles.
It had a pleasant aroma, followed by a slight sweetness on the tip of the tongue, and then a pleasant bitterness that rippled through the taste buds.
I liked it so much that I would like to try it again from this brewery.
I purchased this ice cold bottle of Taman Boast on a recent Thanksgiving Day. This bottle is intended to be served on the rocks. It has a refreshing aroma of watermelon, or perhaps rumney. I was a little surprised that the aroma was still present even with ice. The taste also has a strong sake flavor. Although the alcohol content is not that high (16%), you can still taste the sake flavor even with ice. I would say that this is a very well-made sake.
Taman Pride Sparkling Sake. I thought it would be good for summer and bought it on a recent Thanksgiving Day. To be honest, I didn't like it very much. I didn't expect a sake filled with carbon dioxide gas to have such a tinny taste...
The luminescence-derived fizziness is good, but the filled soda gas is not... another mystery of sake...
I mean, it's not strange or anything, but it still tastes unnatural.

Alcohol 17%.
Nama sake from Taman Boast, which is widely distributed in Tokyo.
It was purchased in front of a station in Hachioji.
The rich flavor spreads in the mouth.
Because of its high alcohol content, it has a strong aftertaste.
It is very drinkable.
