Takezumi Junmai Sake Yamadanishiki
Aged sake with a strong yellow taste! (The aroma is equally intense 😤)
The mouthfeel is also quite strong, with a sweetness that hits you! But surprisingly, the umami strength is not so strong. But the umami is not so strong, and the aftertaste is clean and beautiful! Unexpected in a good way! I'm sure you'll enjoy it!
2014BY✖︎2015BY crossed with 1600 yen, inexpensive! (This time at room temperature, now let's try it heated!)

Junmai Ginjyo Omachi Nama-zake
Polishing ratio 55% Omachi from Asago City, Japan Sake Beverage +5% Alcohol 17
When I drank it in the past, I had the impression that it was spicy but fresh, sweet and delicious.
Slightly effervescent and slightly dry, but with a hint of sweetness.
Junmai Yamadanishiki 2014BY 10 years old
Polishing ratio 70%, Yamadanishiki from Hyogo Prefecture, Sake degree +11
Alcohol 14%.
It has a dark color. Drink this one warmed up.
It has a sense of maturity, but it is not difficult to drink.
It has a soft taste, and I definitely think it should be warmed up.
I'm sorry for heating up the sake even though I'm sweating," the toji told me. I think I drank a lot of this one alone 🤣.
Junmai Ginjo Yuzusyu
The last one was Yuzusyu. It was delicious with sourness, moderate sweetness and a touch of bitterness from the yuzu (yuzu).
This is the last of the Takezumi...

The toji says it is almost the same as the one he drank with the same label in the past.
It is relatively spicy and sweet in comparison to other Takezumi sake. It has a low alcohol content of 15%. I bought this one this time.

Polishing ratio 60%, Fukunohana produced in Izushi, Toyooka City, Japan Sake meter degree +9
Alcohol 17%.
Spicy but slightly effervescent, fresh and with a strong umami taste.
Next was Takezumi, a local sake from Tamba.
We had some sake that was in the tank.
It was a lightly cloudy, gaseous, and sweet sake with a delicious taste.
It tasted just the way I like it. It was delicious 👏👏.
I bought this at a local sake shop in Fukai. The store introduced it as hiyaoroshi, but it seems to be a blend of aged sake. It is mellow and delicious 😋.
Last of the day.
Warmed.
The umami with a slight sweetness expands a little from the gin area to the mid-palate.
The richness of the umami extends to the back of the mouth.
☀️
It was served at room temperature🤗.
The sake in the glass seems to sparkle ✨ with an amber color.
The taste is pure rice but with a thick, mature taste.
I completely forgot to take a picture, but it went well with the tartar sauce that came with the sea robin rare fry 😳.
I advocate the theory that aged sake can go with tartar 🤗.
At Kinosaki
Smoky, then refreshing with acidity afterwards
How is it with sashimi? I thought it would be good with sashimi, but it turns out to be surprisingly good.
Can be served with dashimaki and oden.
