There is no description, but it has a light nigori taste. It has a slightly richer flavor than the Dewa Sanzan that I drank recently. The rice seems to be well melted. As expected from Omachi, there is nothing to say 🤣.

June 3, 2023 At Japanese Sake Satou in Matsuyama, Japan. I took a new employee to my favorite restaurant to drink sake. The fifth sake was Yamagata Masamune Junmai Gin The fifth cup was Yamagata Masamune Junmai Ginzoku Gekidaku. It is made from Yamada-Nishiki, Omachi, and It is a limited-edition shipment of a well-balanced blend of Yamada-Nishiki, Omachi, and Dewa-Tsanbai junmai ginjo. It is a blend of Yamada Nishiki, Omachi, and Dewa Tsannin Junmai Ginjo in good balance. It is very thick, but has a nice sharpness. It is a dry sake that is thick, but has a nice sharpness and is very refreshing to drink. It is a dry sake that can be drunk very refreshingly. Fried raw wood ear, fried raw wood ear, and assorted tempura (so good that we ordered it again). and assorted tempura (which was very good, so I ordered it again). The sake was very good.

Yamagata Masamune Junmai Ginjo Sake Mirai Rating 4.5 Alcohol: 16%; rice: 100% Yamagata-produced Sakemirai; rice polishing ratio: 50%. The taste is light and very beautiful, with a surrounding acidity tinged with grapefruit-like citrus flavors. By changing the pressing method, it contains plenty of gas, making it refreshing and easy to drink. The woody accents from the koji room, made from the famous wood unique to this brewery, add complexity to the flavor. For a fresh green apple taste. Slightly refreshing. Convergence is slightly dry.

For hot sake, although it is called dry, it also has sweetness, it is not sweet because it has acidity and does not leave a sweet taste, it has a good sharpness, and it has a slight sake feel,

Yamagata Sake Yamagata Masamune Junmai Ginjo Aki-agari This is the first time to drink Yamagata Masamune. It has a mellow and umami flavor from aging, and the mouthfeel is fruity and clear. It has a slightly dry, well-balanced taste with an acidity that tightens the taste and a clean and crisp finish. It would be delicious warmed up. Liked 8/10

☀️ Masamune hunters go today 🍶. The original family can't be outdone 💕 At a yakitori restaurant, we will have Yamagata Masamune, a representative of the orthodox Masamune 😋. It has a good balance of banana🍌-like sweetness and rice flavor. While the flavor is satisfying and lasting, it goes down your throat clean and easily 💕. The grilled chicken with sauce and "Road" by "The Tiger Dragon" playing in the restaurant soak into your body and soul 🥹. Hunter suddenly thinks. "What seems like an ordinary sake, I think it was Masamune." ...I'm going home🏠. Nice Masamune👍

Good evening Hiro 🍶🥹. The other day I bought a maniacal old book called "Sake Brewery Meikan 2012" and in a separate booklet, there were several "Masamune" breweries and their representative brands that have gone out of business 🤔.

Yamagata Masamune Omachi Nama Hashiroshi Version The normal fire-roasted version? I drank a bottle at the store and enjoyed it so I bought it. I bought it because I enjoyed it so much. The acidity, umami, and complex flavor The balance is perfect. It is so good that I could finish it without hesitation.

Kame-no-o🌾 Usually it's a sake yeast, but no sealing on the yeast yeast. I wonder if it is fast brewing this year 🤔. Well, I can't really tell even if it's a sake made from the traditional sake yeast. Very tasty as a food sake ✨.

The aroma is sour, rice, and grapefruit. When you drink it, it is chili chili...then, after a moment's delay, the umami comes in! There's a queasy sensation, like your cheeks are falling off. It is not sour, but the sides of the tongue shrink? It ends with a light bitterness accompanied by sweetness. Wow, this is delicious! Overall, I think it's dry and for mid-meal. After a few days, it became moist. The white grape-like sweetness and acidity flow in and then ss... disappear clear and cut off by a slight bitterness. My tongue is too inexperienced to taste the sake future or anything, but it was delicious anyway!
