My criteria for buying sake is often to buy sake that I haven't had for a while or have never had before, but this sake (raw ver.) is my favorite to the point that I buy it repeatedly.
Lactic acid bacteria type aroma. It has a refreshing taste, and the acidity and umami of the rice are exquisite. Delicious!
Last night's year-end party left me damaged in the morning, but since it was my day off, I had a lunchtime drink.
Shiraito Shuzo's 170th anniversary project, a collaboration with Shinmasa ✨.
We were able to have it for the first sip 😍.
Mild fruity aroma, with a hint of banana🍌🤔.
Gentle and elegant sweetness, accented by a beautiful acidity that disappears nicely.
It's elegant ✨As expected from Niimasa, the acidity was a distinctive feature of this sake 🍶.
Good evening, ichiro18!
You must have had a lot to drink to be down until the morning 💦.
Still, it's great that you're going out drinking again at noon. ⤴️
And I would like to drink with Shinmasa, one of the seven gods of sake 🤤.
Good evening, ma-ki 😃.
I guess my internal organs must be tired because I've been busy with year-end parties and organizing the fridge 😅.
But I can't resist the sake I want to drink so I'm doing my best to stay active 😁.
Good evening, ichiro18😄.
Oh, this is the expensive series of the collaboration with Shinsei that Nao888 mentioned! This is the expensive series of the collaboration with Shinsei that Nao888 mentioned ⁉️ I can't believe you can drink this outside ‼️ I'd love to try this 🤩I wonder if it's still expensive...
Good evening, HinaHanaMama 😃.
Shinmasa is the big winner of the Nanafukujin series ✨
It's expensive to buy it, but it was also quite expensive to drink it outside 😅I couldn't afford it, so it was just like drinking it once ✨.
Good evening ichiro18!
What a lucky guy to be able to drink a freshly opened bottle the day after the ban was lifted 😍 I went to a special distributor on the day of the ban, but they don't sell it to the public 😅.
I also went to a special distributor on the day of the ban, but they said it was not for sale to the general public so I gave up drinking it at home😅.
Hi Chesta 😃.
Sorry to hear you were looking forward to it 😅I guess it's popular ✨If you're looking for a drink outside, I'm sure you'll have a chance to have one if you look for it 😊.
This is one from the Shiraito Sake Brewery in Itoshima, a major producer of Yamada-Nishiki. The brewery is located in a Yamadanishiki rice field, and the rice is polished to 65%, so it is called Tanaka Rokuo. The alcohol is low at 14%.
Taste-wise, it is very delicious with a slightly mellow sweetness, umami, and fruity flavor! It has a mild melon taste at first, and then when you taste it, it tastes somewhat like a grape. There is no alcohol or bitterness, so it leaves a delicious taste in the mouth.
According to the liquor store, it is "the ultimate futyu sake. It is the kind of sake that you want to have by your side at all times, or to put it in a more modern way, it is a good sake in general. Indeed, it is delicious.

Third time in Fukuoka this month ✈️
We had dinner at a famous restaurant in Nakasu 😁.
First we ordered "Tanaka Rokuugo" 🍶 from Itoshima, our hometown.
It has the unique richness of Junmai,
And yet it is crisp and refreshing👍.
Good evening, Uchi~'s super~rippa 😃.
I see you were in Fukuoka.
I was also in Fukuoka, but two days apart 😊 and had some Tanaka Rokugo at Tenjin 😊.
I also got some Fukuoka sake at Sumiyoshi Shuhan ✨.
Tanaka Rokuugo has been raw for a long time.
I found it at a liquor store and bought it immediately without worrying!
A beautiful light cloudy color that you can't see the other side of the glass.
It has a sweet aroma like Yakult.
Very refreshing on the palate.
The balance of sweetness and sourness is wonderful!
The aftertaste is fleeting, with a yogurtiness like distant thunder that quickly disappears.
It is easy to drink like water.
It goes well with simple tasting snacks rather than sweet and spicy snacks!
Especially good with seafood.
Pairing: Steamed oysters with sake, assorted sashimi, garland chrysanthemum salad with raw ham and salted kelp, seafood okonomiyaki, fried lotus root with green laver, sweet vinegared turnip
It's a fun time of year with new sake being released one after another! Tanaka Rokugo's draft is also a pleasure at this time of the year.
It has a soft, mild and refreshing taste. It is a nice food sake that goes well with meals. I think it tastes better when mixed with ori.
It tastes good enough, but I would like to have a gaseous taste that is typical of nama-zake. Sorry for my selfish request😅.
Thanks again for the food this year 😊.
It has been a long time since we last saw Mr. Tanaka.
As usual, the taste is simple-is-best.
Perhaps it is this kind of sake that brings me back after all.
