Nagano is so worth digging into.
It came to Suwa from Nakatsugawa City via the village of red buckwheat noodles. It has a refreshing taste. It complements food.
Takaten Karakuchi Dori
Takaten Shuzo (Okaya City, Nagano Prefecture)
changing for the better
The aroma is mild. The color is almost transparent. When put in the mouth, it has a dry taste, moderately acidic, and at the same time, it has a strong and robust umami.
When warmed, the prickling sensation disappears and the rice becomes soft and gently sweet. When served with a meal, it makes the palate happy. It is delicious.
Purchased at the supermarket nearest the brewery in Okaya. They have a huge selection of local sake.
On Sake Day +2, we opened a bottle of Takaten no Hiyayoroshi. GI NAGANO
This is the first time for Takaten🍶.
It is a sake from Shinshu Secret Sake Hanpukai.
I see it is from Okaya City.
I only drink famous sakes in Nagano, so there are many I don't know yet 🙄.
The top aroma is softly sweet.
When you put it in your mouth, it is thick, juicy, sweet, and delicious.
The taste is very satisfying 😊.
It was quite delicious 🍶✨️
First visit to the store.
Spicy spiciness followed by a dignified taste.
The stretchiness in the mouth and the throat that finishes the aftertaste are also perfect for spicy people!
Takaten Junmai Dry Hikaguchi Hiyakioroshi
Rated 4.3-4.4
Rice produced Hitogokochi, 59% polished rice, Sake degree +5, Acidity 1.2, Alcohol 15%.
Hitogochiki 59% polished rice produced in Nagano Prefecture
It is a dry sake with a rounded taste that has matured moderately through aging in the brewery.
It has a dignified taste with a dryness that lasts. The smoothness on the palate and the smoothness on the back of the throat are perfect for those with a dry palate and can be matched with a wide range of dishes from the beginning of autumn.
After the Obon holiday, we are not only in normal mode, but we are also in the midst of the second climax of the month.
Let's take three days off from drinking and exercise to sober up before the weekend, which is suddenly the second climax of the month 🍶.
Takaten First Take typeD
I got this sake at the Shinshu Secret Sake Hanpukai, but I've never heard of "Takaten" before. ✨️
［The name "type D" is very appealing to robot lovers.
［Glass.]
The aroma is like soft white grapes, the mouthfeel is clear with juicy flavor and a firm bitterness, then it finishes with a refreshing aftertaste with a lingering bitterness and a fresh finish.
［Mokkiri.]
Hard mineral aroma, strong mineral flavor and a strong bitterness with a strong presence, then a refreshing finish with a lingering bitterness.
If I were to speak from personal experience, I would say that the bitterness is quite characteristic, and while it is not unpleasant, it is rare to find such a strong bitterness.
The entrées were "Shizuoka bonito tataki" and "locally caught horse mackerel sashimi"!
The fourth picture is a date with my wife to see the Alphonse Mucha exhibition (🥰).
It is quite an interesting exhibition if you look at it as a starting point for contemporary advertising design 🖼️

It's really nice of you, Mr. Jive, to plan and carry out ❤️ perfect plans to match your work well, rest days and exercise 🏋️💪 and even a date with your wife 💓 I hope your husband can learn from you 💦 high heaven is a mature taste 😅.
Hi Gyve, good evening.
I'm so sorry to hear that you are on your second mountain of work💦.
I have never seen the actual Takaten-san, but it has a strong bitter taste 😲.
It's nice to have a date with your wife to refresh 🤗.
Good morning, Gyve 😃Good morning to you and your mountain of work 😌I'm curious about Takaten, I haven't tasted it yet. And your date at Mucha, too nice couple ❤️
Good evening, HinaHanaMama🌛.
I am always trying to take care of my physical condition since this job is very physical and there is no one to replace me 🥰.
We go out for lunch at least once a month and enjoy our time together. ✨️
Good evening, ma-ki-chan 🌛.
I had only one scheduled project, so things just piled up 😅.
I'll touch on that a bit in my next post 🤣.
The "high heaven" was quite bitter: ✨️
Good evening, Wakata-san 🌛.
This time it was [hanpukai specs] so I'd like to taste the regular product once 🥰.
We both like to look at designs, so we tend to have a high rate of dates at museums and handcraft exhibitions 🤣.
