Gokyoトラタン 辛口
hidekitakako
It is a very elegant sweet sake. There is no cloying taste, and it can be drunk gently and easily. The balance is excellent. It is deep, but also has a good sharpness.
It is difficult to find this balance in sweet sake, but it is excellent. Sake with a full-bodied, fruity flavor is also good, but this sake has a light flavor that is well seasoned by a master who is well versed in the high points of sake. It is a quintessential Tasake.

I was caught off guard. I had no idea it was such an energetic drink. I blew out a great deal of it. The desk and luncheon mat drank more than a little. I was full of remorse.
The rule of the house-drinking club is to let no one drink a bottle but yourself. This is a self-serving interpretation, but...
In my case, I did not let anyone else drink it, but I let my desk and luncheon mat drink it. I may have to take responsibility and resign from the house drinking club.
By the way, the point of this drink is its drinkability. It tastes like calpis and is easy to drink. It is not too light, not too umami, and has a perfect balance. Balance is a very important element in sake. Fruity sweetness is good, and sake rich in umami is also good. However, the more these characteristics are emphasized, the more sake fundamentalists will turn against them. Fruity and wine-like is fine, sparing and champagne-like is fine, but you are Japanese, and your sake should not exceed the sake category. No, you can go beyond, but the Japanese will not like it. That is why balance is important. This sake has a good balance. That is why this sake needs a sake brewery with a sense of balance that can quarrel with champagne while retaining its value as sake.

It has a traditional light dry taste. It is smooth, easy to drink, and has no cloying taste. It is an honorable taste, but it does not have much individuality. You can't go wrong with this wine, and you won't be greatly impressed by it either. It may sound cold, but honor student has been treated like this for a long time. I am looking forward to seeing a maverick in the lineup, one that is truly seductive.

On my way back from visiting the National Diet Library, I stopped by Kitasenju to purchase some items. It is much smaller than the main store (which I have never been to), but the selection is quite good, and I had quite a bit of trouble deciding what to buy. I was planning to buy some sake here as a gift, and I wanted something fire-brewed, but I was a little disappointed that there were not many items on display at room temperature.
The bottle opened without incident despite the warning to open the bottle. It had a modern taste with acidity and was very good, but to be honest, I felt like I was drinking Sengkyo from the middle of the bottle. (This is my personal opinion.)

Good evening, Mr. Freelancer First Generation Man 😀.
Thank you for your warm comment the other day😇
I haven't had the courage to raise a taste comment yet, so I'm learning about sake little by little 🤣.
Hiran, I've only had kijoshu yet 😅.

Good evening, Mr. Yasube!
I am just stating what I thought, but I hope it was able to distract you in some small way.
I see that there is also kijoshu, and I am sure it is delicious, so I would like to try another spec.

Hi Jay & Nobby!
I have been wanting to visit this restaurant for a long time, so I am very happy that I finally did. Of course, I would like to visit the main store too, even though it is far away.
Maybe I compare it to Senkou because I have not had many kinds of sake...

The fruity aroma, slight sweetness, and characteristic mild, enveloping aftertaste made it stable and delicious!
