I was busy this week preparing for an event tomorrow. After finishing the preparations, I was ready to launch the event by myself. I had a light drink at my favorite restaurant. I ordered the Nagano version of the usual sake tasting set. The first one is called "Mutual suppression," which is a unique name. It is named after a starter, a relay, and a suppressor. The fruity aroma of sweet and sour goes into the nose and is delicious. The aftertaste is tight. It was a winning drink.
Sake reads "Go". It is fire-aged and watered.
Chilled.
It has a mild sweet aroma. It has a mild sweetness, followed by a rich umami (flavor) that is suitable for nourishment, with a slight sense of maturity in the aftertaste.
It seems to be a type of sake that can be enjoyed at any temperature.
Hankyu Umeda Main Store, 9th Traveling SAKE (11)
I have seen Kutsugake Sake Brewery at a liquor store, but this is my first time drinking there.
Mutou Kakushidama Junmai Ginjyo Nama Genjyo Nagano R
The aroma is apple-like, and the acidity is quite strong. The aftertaste is a little tingling.
Mutou Nakatsuki Junmai Ginjo Moss Nigori
A little lactic acidity taste. It has a spicy and delicious taste.
Mutou Sentaku Junmai Ginjo Nama Genjyo
The tightening acidity gives it a wine-like taste.
Mutou Oshase Junmai Ginjyo Nama Genjyo Nagano R
Deep flavor with a slight tingling afterwards.
Junmai Sake Tora Label
It was like a proper, full Junmai.
Daiginjo Daiginjo Nama-nihon Sake Yamadanishiki Fukuro-hozuri
The taste was mellow and well balanced. The price was familiar, but the capacity was small and it was quite expensive.
When I asked bouken-san about the first sake... he said it was named in leased order.
Good morning, Nemuchi 😃I also secretly went to Hankyu Traveling Sake, but I don't remember it in such detail, so you are too awesome 😆✨I felt that I like the hidden balls the best 👍.
Good evening, Wakata 😊I see you were here for the traveling SAKE 😁I always forget so I just write down what I thought the most 😅I have a stupid tongue so my impression itself can be different 🤣I preferred the middle relay and the blessed nothing 😋.
The 9th Traveling SAKE (8)
Kutsunokake Sake Brewery of Mutou. I thought they might not bring Mutou because it seemed to be for special dealers, but they did!
They came under the name of "Fuku Muhaku," but I think they had more products of Mutou.
I drank
Kakushidama Junmai Ginjyo Nama Sake Nagano R
There are many fruity sake with R yeast, but this one was quite spicy!
Osaesuage Junmai Ginjyo Nama Nama Sake Nagano C
This sake is made with Alps yeast. Not very impressive.
Junmai Ginjyo Nama-no-Genjo-Nihon Sake
I think it was pretty sweet and tasty.
Nakatsuku Junmai Ginjyo Usu Nigori Nama-genshu
Tasted only because it was sold out. I like this one the best when it's a reciprocal.
It seems to be the same product as the Relief we drank at home in the past.
Junmai-shu Tora Label
It seems to be an everyday evening sake.
Fukufuku Muhaku Daiginjo-nama sake Yamadanishiki Fukuro-hari
It's so good that it's expensive!
Sorry I didn't buy it while appealing to buy it 🙏.
I asked about the naming of the starters and suppressors, and they said it was the order of release.
I read it as "Arabashiri", "Nakatori", and "Yakusui", but I was wrong😅.
Kutsunokake Shuzo
Mutou Nakatsuki Junmai Ginjyo Nama-nagori Mild Nigori
The brewery is located in Ueda City, Nagano Prefecture.
Hitogochi rice grown in Ueda City is polished to 55%.
It has a sweet and refreshing aroma and fresh acidity,
Fresh acidity, full-bodied rice flavor, and an elegant, clean, and crisp aftertaste.
A clean and crisp aftertaste.

This is the one I'm having tonight, which I bought on my way back from a ski trip to Nagano last month. It has a fresh mouthfeel like sour fruit, which I like.

Mood ★★☆☆☆☆☆☆
The guy at the restaurant where we had lunch said that the brewer was a baseball fan. He said there is a starter, a reliever, and a supporter.

Continuing the dry sake discussion.
It is true that it has acidity and makes you think it is dry, but the aftertaste is sweet. Rather sweet. Rather sweet.
It gives the impression of a sweet-tasting sake.
Personally, I think the dry sake problem will continue to be a problem in the future as well as the summer sake problem.
To each his own.
