Polished 40%. Sake bar on the 4th floor of a building in Nishiki, Nagoya. The friendly manager and the sake will make you feel at home. The taste is mellow, mature and fruity. We enjoyed it very much.
Red Tenbi, freshly stocked today and ready to drink right after opening the bottle. When poured, it was alive with a slight effervescence and bubbles on the surface. The aroma is also mellow and white peachy, with a freshness that fills the mouth.
Because it is yellow, I thought it would taste banana-y, but it reminds me of white peaches and is rich and deep, perfect with cheese and white sashimi. It can be drunk on its own. I want to drink the whole Takachiyo series 🍶.
The first Isobojimai, with brewing alcohol, made with Yamadanishiki from District A. Classical, clear, watery flavor, not much fruitiness, but subtly elegant.
Also in front of Yamagata Ekimae Denshichi. Sake No. 1 in Yamagata costs more than 1,500 yen, and Niimasa is also expensive at 8,000 yen. Tasake is a stable taste.
An old product of the Jyushiyo company. It was the first time I drank it, but it was tasty without much brewing feeling. It was also fruity. Izakaya Denshichi between Yamagata Station
It has no sake-like taste, but rather a clear, mellow, and light flavor. It is easy to drink and you can easily open 4 gou of it. It is a nice match with pure Japanese dishes such as takuan (pickled radish) and nikujaga (meat and potatoes). A good sake to drink regularly.
Tasake no Yamahai, which I drank last year at an izakaya. It was delicious and cost about 1800 yen at the liquor store. Unlike before, there was no fizziness, but the taste was stable and well-balanced. Umami, smooth, gorgeous flavor.
Slightly carbonated with a tingling sensation immediately after opening the bottle. It has a fruity and juicy taste that is hard to believe that it has been alkaloosoaked. It is not as gorgeous as Mimuro Cedar, but it is still a gem that can be fully enjoyed.
This is a standard sake of Mimuro Sugi, which I have always been interested in. It is well-balanced and has a graceful taste. Gorgeous, fruity, juicy, fresh, suitable for regular drinkers who want a steady cup, moderately sweet.
I had plans to go to Sogo in Hong Kong, so I went to the sake department. The basic sake such as Jyushidai, Nikkaku, Ottersai, Kuroryu, Tasake, etc. is about 4 times as much as in Japan, and 10 times as much if it is a premier sake.
I had drunk it before and enjoyed it so I bought it and tried it. The previous bottle was lightly cloudy, but this time it was immediately after the bottle was opened, so there was no cloudiness, and it had a clean, mellow, fruity taste.
