When it comes to aged sake, Daruma Masamune is the most popular type of sake.
Shiraki Tsunesuke Shoten has been making mainly aged sake since the 1960s 🍶.
Shigeri Shiraki, aka Samantha, is the 7th generation brewer. I've seen your instagram often, but this is the first time I've met you. ☺️
Jyunen Koshu is a blend of sake that has been aged for more than 10 years.
His husband and toji, Hisashi Shiraki, is one of the few sake blenders I know of.
The appearance is deep amber and brown.
I have never seen such a color expression in sake before!
The aroma is soft yet complex with a mature aroma.
Clove, cinnamon, cypress, mead, shiitake mushrooms, soy sauce, caramel, walnuts, etc... All the elements of matured aroma are mixed together with a gentle sweet aroma and a hint of acidity.
The taste is soft and mellow.
The sweetness is intense and strong, with a touch of molasses, and the acidity spreads from there in a rich, gentle and complex way.
There are nuances of Shaoxing sake, but it has no corners, and the richness and full flavor of the rice gives it the quality of aged Japanese sake.
The lingering aftertaste is long, thin, and string-like.
I am grateful that they did their best to revive aged sake, which at one time was almost lost due to the Sake Tax Law.
I hope that aged sake will spread as one of the wonderful cultures of sake 🍶.

Hi Aladdin. I see you got to meet Samantha 😳 Too jealous! I definitely want to meet her someday! I also want next year's zodiac label. But I'm slightly afraid of snake tongues so I haven't gotten it 😓.

The ninth cup was a sweet Junmai from Daruma Masamune, which I was personally curious about!

The mild, sweet, astringent and savory flavor is like caramel pudding 🍮.

Sake made by adding the fourth stage of koji amazake and the fifth stage of sake mother to the regular three-stage brewing process for Daruma Masamune's old sake.
Sake degree -25, acidity 3
Slightly sweet, sweet and sour taste can be expected.
Although it is only six months old, the aroma is a little mature.
Grain, caramel and honey sweetness.
The taste is quite rich and sweet.
It has a thick texture, almost syrupy.
A bit of grain complexity and a bit of acidity accentuate the sweetness, but it is not monotonous.
Delicious!
A classic sweet sake, which is a bit rare nowadays.
If you like sweet sake, you must try this one!

Gifu Prefecture's Tsunesuke Shiraki Shoten is well known for its aged old sake. Its representative brand, "Daruma Masamune," is available in a variety of series with different maturation periods, including premium aged sake that is 20 years old.
This time we tasted "Daruma Masamune Junmai Hiyoroshi", which is made using a special process for old sake, but aged for less than one year. Although the aging period is roughly the same as that of ordinary sake, the difference can be clearly felt from the moment the bottle is opened.
The aroma is rich, like that of dengaku miso or mirin (sweet sake). In the mouth, the dense sweetness and umami spread out, while the acidity is also well pronounced, making it a deep-flavored sake.
It can be enjoyed at a variety of temperatures, from on the rocks to hot sake, but to fully appreciate its "mellow" flavor, it should be enjoyed at room temperature or lukewarm.
It can be paired with a wide range of dishes, from strong-flavored meat dishes such as teriyaki or miso marinated meat, to the perfect adult dessert of vanilla ice cream. Warmed, it has the nostalgia of a hot wine, and its flavor can be expanded by pairing it with lemon and spices.
This is a gem that you can enjoy as it slowly changes in flavor over time with TARUMA, which accompanies you in your daily life in many different situations.
