This one on the left in the photo is a Junmai Daiginjo from Tatenogawa.
I bought it to compare and enjoy at a ryokan. But I remember that I liked the taste of Kamikimoto better.
The smell was a slight savory smell of alcohol, and the palate was just a little bit tingling, but with a delicious bitterness that was slightly astringent, and the aftertaste was astringent,
The first sake of the new year is Tatenogawa, which was purchased at the end of last year.
It has a great mouthfeel, a moderate sweetness, and is very easy to drink. 720 ml of it will be gone in no time.
The first bottle of the year will be a premium sake with osechi and ozoni.
To put it bluntly, it is as delicious as it is expensive. This kind of sake does not need a review, and is definitely delicious, but since I'm going to go to the trouble of writing one, I'll record it here.
The aroma is definitely daiginjo.
The sweetness and aroma that fills the mouth from the moment you drink it is simply delicious. There is no doubt that this sake has no peculiarities and is a good all-around sake that can be served anytime and anywhere.
The mouthfeel is in the fashionable slightly sweet style.
It is a sake that costs several tens of thousands of yen for a four-pack. I would have sworn that there was something wrong with it that made it not worth the price, but there was nothing wrong with it. It was a great start to another enjoyable and tasty sake life.
