Sake from the Kikuzakari Fair at Asano Sake Shop Umeda (3) 🍶.
Cab Driver" is a representative sake that has grown to the point where it can be said that Kikuzakari is known for this sake.
As proof, it was sold out on the first day of the fair at the Umeda store! Even though we have one more week to go!
Cab Driver was the result of a conversation over drinks with Yoshiki Takahashi, a designer in the movie industry.
Although it is easy to be distracted by the name and label design, the contents are also full of Mr. Fujimura's character: the sake rice, koji, and yeast are all Iwate junmai sake.
Specifically, the sake rice is 100% edible Iwate "Kakehashi" rice, the yeast is Iwate Prefecture's original "Yuko no Koi," and even the koji is Iwate Prefecture's original "Reimei Hiraizumi.
It is full of local love.
The aroma is gentle and discreet with a nice fruity flavor.
On the palate, there is a smooth umami and a dandy bitterness, from which a slight sweetness spreads and the bitterness and acidity kick in.
While the sweet umami and bitterness are in harmony, it also has the impact typical of nama-zake.
It is an anachronistic expression, but it is a manly sake.
Very tasty. ☺️
I heard that it tastes good heated up, so I thought I would like to buy a four-pack bottle and drink it carefully at home.

Hi Yasubeyesan, 😃I went to Takudora 😁Asano and Umeda stores are no longer selling Takudora and it is doubtful how long the store's set will last 🤔By the way, Seijo Ishii was also selling fresh Takudora the other day 😳.
