Takaragawa Junmai Sake Takaragawa Junmai Rice polishing ratio 70%. Alcohol 14%. Sake degree +5 Seimaibuai 70% Alcohol 14 Nihonshudo +5 It has been a long time since I have had this sake, but it is as stable as if I had returned to my old home. It goes well with cream cheese with bonito flakes on it. Dry, with crisp tangy grassy finish and a bit of an alcohol flavored punch. Good pairing with sashimi Too strong for anago tempura, maybe not well suited for the batter Pretty good with "oyster Yuba ponzu jelly" Oyster Yuba ponzu jelly Good pairing with sashimi Too strong for anago tempura, maybe not well suited for the batter Pretty good with "oyster Yuba ponzu jelly" Oyster Yuba ponzu jelly 2025/09/17 Rakuten Rakuten Hokkaido Otaru

Ok… I know I said that Benten Musume would be the closer, but I couldn’t help myself and ordered more… Kamikawa Taisetsu Junmai Ginjo Suisei 100% with oden It’s an okay combination. The Kamikawa is a little sweet. Probably should have tried it earlier in the evening.

Wow! Now this one is really Taru-aji barrel flavored. Very yellow This one does not lose to Karaage or Anago tempura with Ume oroshi. Really strong flavored, we would consider drinking this on the rocks, like a shochu. Save this one for the end of the evening as it will overpower other sakes. Definitely a closing pitcher, not a starter. Brew year Heisei 30 2018. Wow! Where did they store this?
