Takatsugawa 3

It tastes like typical sake. Here is a description. This sake is made with only 70% sake rice so that the original flavor of the rice can be enjoyed. It is a sake that can be enjoyed as an affordable everyday evening drink. In winter, we recommend heating it up and enjoying it with hot pot dishes.

Japanese>English

Another one this time. It is Takatsugawa by Fusozuru. It is from Shimane Prefecture. I saw Hiraccio-san drinking it and longed for it 🙌. First at room temperature. The color is a solid yellow. The aroma is mildly savory with a hint of maturity. It smells like caramel, soy sauce, and cream cheese. The mouthfeel is gentle. The palate is drowned in the complex flavor of aged rice with a moderate acidity. When heated up, it becomes smoother and more balanced, and you can just keep on drinking it. It has a relaxing and soothing taste. When tasted with a thick Shigaraki-ware sake cup, the warmth of the clay makes it taste even better. The warmth of the clay makes it even softer and happier 💕. Aizu girl and the Takatsu River I will relax my body and soul in the late winter. What a good evening drink 😊.

It was served lukewarm with sukiyaki for the first time this season.

It is Akishika's henohenomoheji. It was served heated 🍶. The nose is softly warmed with a sweet aroma of warmed sake. The first aroma is softly sweet with a warmed sake aroma. It is a dry sake with a nice sharp taste. We enjoyed it with smoked egg 🍶😊.

Japanese>English

I wanted to drink warmed sake, so I ordered a bottle of Akizuka. Natural sake made with Yamadanishiki grown organically without pesticides in our own rice paddies. Milky and warm! The bottle was left for a few weeks after opening, so it has a nice flavor. The rich and flavorful taste is perfect with Sumagatsuo sashimi! Enjoying the warmed sake while listening to our mom's tasty conversation! At Sumiyoshi

This is the sixth brewery in the Saku Sake Brewery series. Located in a historic town along the old Nakasendo road, this is a place I would like to visit again. The taste is very strong as it is called "mellow" sake. It is 18% alcohol by volume. It has a bitter taste on the tip of the tongue, followed by a sweet sake-like flavor. I heard that there is a way to enjoy it by aging it after buying it. Next time I'll let it mature a bit and try it with mizutaki in winter 😋.

National Sake Fair 2025 part74 Nagano (1) I lost everyone when I came back from the restroom, so I acted alone until the end. From here on, I'm going to drink only the brands I'm interested in with pinpoint accuracy. Takeju Honke Sake Brewery in Saku City I've been curious about this sake brewery for a while. They also produce a sake called "doburoku" which is written as "126" and I've never seen it before💦. I've seen Gyoenchiku at Yodobashi before, but it was an expensive one. Polishing ratio 70%, Miyamanishiki 18%, Sake degree -9, Acidity 2.0 1,700 yen (price at the venue) Aged at room temperature for more than half a year. It is matured, but it is delicious with a strong umami flavor. The label says it will be better if it is left at room temperature for a few more months, but I think this is about right for me. It seems to have won a gold medal at the Wineglass Delicious Sake Awards 2022!

Norikazu Shigeta Toji 18 Makimizu Junmai Daiginjo Competition standard 35% Yamadanishiki, pear-like aroma. Slight sweetness. After the first sip, it becomes numb, then gradually acidic. Very beautiful taste. 19: 35% Yamadanishiki, the standard for Daiginjo-shu entered in the Misonotake Daiginjyo Competition. Slightly lemony aroma. Refreshing and delicious. Slightly sweet and slightly effervescent. The lingering aftertaste is a bit sticky. Compare with R5 Daiginjyo for the competition by Takeju Sake Brewery. Excellent. The third and last of the SAKE country tourism achievement prizes. Sake brewery stamp rally in Nagano Prefecture. A wonderful plan whereby those who complete all the breweries receive 6 bottles from 3 random breweries. The following have already been submitted. 14 Junmai Choujyu Kurekuchi 15 Junmai Chouji Junmai Ginjo Kinmon Nishiki Ajiginjo 16 Misonotake Junmai Ginjo Murasaki Tsuyuuso 17 MAKISUI Junmai Daiginjo Bottled and once fired As for my impressions after finishing the tour, I could recognize that each of the various brands has its own brewer. Thank you. Also, as a brewery tour enthusiast, it is a very useful tool as an excuse to break into breweries that do not sell their sake at retail. Also, there are many breweries that do not have a store, so I think I have gained some courage. There are prizes even for 10 stamps, so if you are planning to visit Nagano, please give it a try.

It is a good match for strong flavored dishes... Although it is not the latest popular sake, it has a presence that says you are drinking sake. ...this is delicious in its own way...

Japanese>English

National Sake Fair 2025 in Osaka ㊹ Tokyo Booth (2) Tamura Sake Brewery is located in Fussa City. Representative brand is Kaisen. ◉Tamura Junmai Ginjo Tamura Junmai Ginjo is made from Iwate Prefecture's Gingin Gin. It is a rich, mellow, sweet and umami type of sake, with a deep, full-bodied flavor. It also has a slightly complex, rustic flavor. The Tamura series does not limit itself to any specific sake rice, but uses carefully selected sake rice from all over Japan in pursuit of the depth of flavor that comes from the "difference in rice".

Usual brand name is Kaisen I have bought 3㌥ of Kasen at Yodobashi in the past I also remember drinking Daiginjo when we went out for a drink. Polishing ratio 55%, Gin-Gin-Ga 16 degrees, Sake degree ±0 to +2 Acidity 1.6-1.8, 1650 yen It is rich, full-bodied, and very drinkable. I also felt a little graininess. The Tamura series also uses various rice for sake, such as Ginpu and Yamashu No. 4, so I thought it was interesting.

My favorite peculiarity of what feels peculiar in the mouthfeel. I like this flavor 😋. It's a bit classical, though.

Japanese>English

bamboo grove with a thick layer of mixed weeds Lactic acidity. There is a sense of maturity. Both are moderate. It has umami. There is a lingering aftertaste. It makes you feel relaxed. It goes well with Japanese food. Purchased at a sake brewery in GW. Sake brewery in Kujukuri. The owner was very talkative and told us a lot about Chiba Prefecture's sake. He is in the unique business of putting customers' names on sake labels. It might be good as a gift.

100% Chiba rice Polishing ratio 60 Alcohol 17%. Date of production: June 25 First Chiba sake: ☺️ This is a super new sake that was just made yesterday✨. The first taste is koji, followed by sweetness and a lingering alcohol taste, which I personally experienced for the first time. I visited the brewery and the proprietress was very nice and let me try some tasting and I had a good time shopping 😉. It goes great with the local sesame pickles 😘. I didn't put it on the picture, but the fresh pickled pepper they were selling is also very tasty...!

Sashi-Drinking with an old friend at an izakaya after a long time. We chose our first sake. I remember it went down smoothly...

Japanese>English

Yesterday, I went to my favorite izakaya "我" ♡♡♡. I drank a variety of drinks in the all-you-can-drink 1 hour 1500 yen (*^^*) It was crowded, so I couldn't order at a high pitch, so I could only drink 9 kinds out of the 20 or so available...(-_-...) The 6th drink was "Miho". Oroku" and "Gassan" are the most famous sake from Shimane, so I haven't had many of the others. It has a strong sense of rice, but it's not mellow or fruity. I'm sure you'll love it. *I love it!

Then the middle one, "Senryo Otokoyama. Honey-like aroma. The mouthfeel is silky, but the flavor is similar to a juku-shu type. It has a honey and syrupy feel with a touch of pettiness. However, it is easy to drink, with no harshness or bitterness, perhaps because the overall assertiveness is modest! It is crisp but dense. It is a deep taste that is hard to describe!

National Sake Fair 2025 in Osaka_71 Iwate Prefecture Booth ⑥ Hishiya Sake Brewery is located in Miyako City. Located by the sea, this brewery was damaged by the Tohoku earthquake and resumed sake brewing relatively early with support from all over Japan, and has made a solid comeback. ◉Senryo Otokoyama Junmai Sake A clear sake with a nice acidity and umami that finishes off the taste. The sake is clear, but the acidity and umami give it a nice, robust flavor. Fukurai is proud to have inherited the skills of Katsutoshi Tsujimura, a master brewer who was selected as a "Modern Master Craftsman". Mr. Tsujimura was originally the second toji at Nishida Sake Brewery, which produces "Tasake" (rice wine). He became involved in sake brewing at Hishiya Sake Brewery in the fall of 2005, and the brewery is now run by the brewery's successor.
