I went to Chitose on a day trip. I was looking for a sake shop and found one that was opened in February this year. The manager was very friendly, and we decided on this one product: the Takai Sake Brewery's "Tatomo. It came with a box, which I didn't expect. I am very happy.
I tried it right away. On the first day, it tasted more astringent than refreshing, and it was hard to describe the taste. The astringency I was worried about eased and it became easier to drink. Personally, I think it would be better if it had a little more yeast bubbles, but it is a delicious sake that is just right for drinking a little at night.
It is rather sweet, but the description recommends it as a food sake. When I tried it with a stronger food item, the amount of alcohol, miscellaneous tastes, and astringency became a bit bothersome as I put more in my mouth at one time. I think it would be better with a lighter food item. The taste is fruity, but not fruity, and you can enjoy the sweetness of the rice.
It is best drunk alone with a glass of wine at night. High-grade sake rice "Koshitanrei" is delicious.
