Seishu Takekizuru Junmai. This sake is from Hiroshima Prefecture, a neighbor of Okayama. It is the yellowest sake I have ever seen. It is more yellow than Muromachi Sake Brewery's sake, so yellow you would think it was an old sake. It has a strong aroma of wood and grain, and tastes very dry with almost no sweetness. I bought this sake because it was suggested as tasting similar to our family's regular drink, Kenrishi. It is true that the taste is similar to Kenrishi in terms of maturity, but the taste on the tongue is quite different, and there is quite a bit of sweetness left in that one. It is a bit heavy for regular drinking, but I thought it would be good for a change of pace!
