Warmed. Reddish brown in color. Full of a mild caramelized taste with a burnt aftertaste. The taste is very typical of an aged sake.

This time it is a zodiac label for Daruma Masamune.
This sake is a blend of the year of the Snake from 1977, Heisei 1, Heisei 13, and Heisei 25.
We welcomed this sake last year as well.
We would like to welcome it again this year,
I am afraid of the bright redness👅 of the snake's tongue in the year of the snake, what should I do?
I am afraid of the bright red tongue of the snake in the year of the snake 👅, what should I do💧, but I end up bringing it home.
I will take it at room temperature.
The color is a shining amber.
The overtones are caramel, soy sauce, aromatic wood, bitter chocolate, and fermented butter.
around.
The mouthfeel is thick,
The taste is a blend of melt-in-your-mouth sweetness, caramel's savory and bitter flavor, and moderately sharp acidity.
The blend of old sake is excellent, making it mellow and easy to drink.
The aroma is enhanced when heated. ♨️
May you enjoy drinking sake again this year 🙏.
First visit to Matsuo-taisha shrine ⛩️
On the way home, I went to a shopping mall.
I met Anpanman, Baikinman, and Dokin-chan at the shopping mall on the way home.
It was a fun New Year's Day 🎍🤗.

Apparently there is some kind of store that sells a lot of single bottles. If you hear a rumor like that, you have to go 😎.
Departure🛫.
The store was attached to a certain hotel and quietly operating.
When I entered the store, I found that there were not so many single bottles lined up 😅... 😅.
When I asked the hotel receptionist, he told me that they only have what they have and that they will close the store when they sell out.
It's a pity and a sad thing that the store where I collected Ippongi bottles is going to disappear 😭.
I bought a bottle of Dharma Masamune to commemorate the occasion 🍶It cost 3,600 yen for a single bottle, so I thought "what the heck ⁉️" but it was aged 20 years💦.
When I tipped the bottle, the color 🟤 of the sake was transferred to the bottle😅.
I've never seen this phenomenon before... This should not be opened with ease😅.
I decided to keep it at the back of the shelf for further aging 🤩.
Instead, I remembered the Dharma Masamune 10 years aged I drank before and reviewed it: ❗️
Sticky honey-like sweetness🍯.
A heavy alcohol taste 🍶.
The more you sip, the more umami you get 🧐.
It's the sake that made me think that matured sake is not so bad despite its heavy taste 🤗.

しんじょう
Good evening...
I am also further aging old sake, and when I looked at it for a moment, there was indeed a color transfer on the bottle, although not as bad as that Dharma Masamune!
I was a little happy to see it for the first time too!

Good evening, Shinjo😄.
Thank you for your comment 🙏.
I see that the old wine there also had a color shift: ❗️
I'm glad to see that it's showing its age, but on the other hand, I'm afraid it's too good to drink 😅.

Hello Hiro-san!
I was introduced to this restaurant in a previous edition of "Bar Houki" and was hoping to visit when I go to Kanto 😅I'm sorry to hear it's closed.

Good evening, bouken!
I'm sure there are management issues, but it's sad to see the sight of all those single bottles lined up in a row disappear 😢.
I hope it will come back again 🙏.

First time? I had a chance to compare old sake + heated sake.
I was allowed to compare it with cold sake, but the koshu had a lot of quirks, and the warmed sake made it more pronounced and harsh.
Cold sake was just right.

It's the Dharma Masamune that I drank before 😊.
This time it's the Ox blend 😃.
As always, it's rich and delicious 😁.
Naturally, I had it warmed up 😆.
The sourness and umami that is typical of old sake makes me feel relaxed 😁.

Finish with an old wine✨
Brown in color, roasted brown✨
This is served hot 😊.
It's more mellow than matured 😆.
I thought it would have more of an aged feel... surprising ☝️
But it's easy to drink and tasty 😁.

This 3 year old sake has a sticky, honey-like sweetness that spreads in the mouth... a bottle that makes you feel the depth of sake even more!
