I bought it because it was recommended by a local liquor store 😌.
The liquor store said it would be a breakout hit from now on, and it sure was delicious!
Satisfaction ★★★☆☆☆☆→★★★★☆☆
I made an expedition to Masuya Brewery in Inagi City to buy my first sake.
It seems to be melon-based from the pop and label.
No pressure is felt when the bottle is opened, and the aroma is mildly fruity.
On the palate, hmmm? Melon? Well, yes, it smells like ripe red melon.
The sweetness is very strong and hits the syrup level.
The mild acidity and bitterness are too sweet to be washed away by the bitter taste.
Those who like sweet drinks will love it.
It has no sawdust smell, is delicious, and can be used as a food sake.
I like sweet sake myself, but I think it is slightly too sweet.
They are very kind in recommending dishes that go well with it.
I drank it 3 days after opening the bottle, the aroma was more blue melon, the sweetness decreased, and the bitterness increased a little. 3 days later it was better, so I updated my satisfaction.
16% alcohol
100% Yamada Nishiki from Hyogo
Slight pop when opened.
First day was melon, caramel and then acidity.
As normal, I tried it over 10 days, and the flavour improves, with no drop off.
From day 4, the fruity taste of melon, Fuji apple, hint of bitterness, caramel, with acidity to stop it tasting too sweet.
Surprisingly worked well with grilled steak.
Delicious!
My favorite first green limited edition OMACHI!
It has a full-bodied flavor that spreads like Omachi.
But the finish is elegant without being overpowering!
I don't know the details, but the Okuhida Sake Brewery is a master. I don't know the details, but the Okuhida shuzo is amazing.
I have not been drinking at home this summer due to summer festival events at my favorite restaurants. 😹.
My inventory is growing. 😭
The first upload in a while is Hatsuroroku, which is my guess.
It is brewed with Yamadanishiki from Hida and a new yeast, Association Ka8 yeast.
It has a gentle sweetness and freshness. It is a reasonably priced daiginjo that can be drunk smoothly. 😋😋😋😋
Here it is, a limited edition ⭐️
This is the second limited edition sake made from 100% Omachi, a first for the brewery 🍶.
By the way, the first version was brewed with 100% Yamadanishiki, polished down to 35% ✨.
I'm not sure about the Association 1801 yeast, but it seems to be the ginjo aroma from the crossbreeding with Omachi ♬.
It's not flashy, but it has a gorgeous fruity aroma 🍈.
When you put it in your mouth, you can feel the sweetness and umami of rice spreading in your mouth while the finish is crisp and tight. ☺️
It's easy to drink, with the richness of Omachi, yet mild and easy to drink ✨.
Yes, this is delicious 😋.
Hatsugoroku Junmai Ginjo "Summer

Although the sake shop owner said it was refreshing, it is not that refreshing.
It is rather rich.
The sweetness comes at first, but after that, it is very spicy and thick....
Repeat ★☆☆☆☆☆☆
Akihabara 1)
Working at a customer's company in Akihabara from yesterday to today
Last night, we had a get-together.
Same as last month, we rented out a soba noodle restaurant.
All-you-can-drink, but they serve a variety of sake (though you can't choose).
The first one was Hatsugoroku Special Junmai Unfiltered Nama Sake!
Hatsugoroku is a sake from Gifu and I've had it a few times and I like it a lot. If this is all you can drink, welcome 😘.
Beautiful, gentle sweetness.
It's clean and clear.
Still delicious 😋.
But everyone started to drink it, so I had to finish it after about 2 glasses 😭
Opened on June 15, 2025
Purchased after tasting at the brewery
Fruity ^ ^
Summer fruit🍋! Refreshing sourness and fruitiness like Hachisaku and sweet summer fruits ^ ^.
It's more like a drink for evening drinking ^ ^.
I think it would be better to cool it down to get more of its character.
On a hot day like today: ☀️
