Masamune Yamagata
What is this, it's not pineapple or banana...what is it!
Oaky, but not too heavy.
What's this, where is this, but I like it very much...
Not pineapple again, but a similar strain?
I think it might be my favorite of the three to pair with rice!
Yamagata Masamune
At first I thought it had a sweet aroma.
But it has a sharp taste that goes down your throat and leaves no aftertaste!
The smell is sweet! That's my impression!
It is easy to drink!
The oden is also very tasty and I love this restaurant!
Sake Mirai🌾
The sharpness is the usual Yamagata Masamune.
The sharpness is the usual Yamagata Masamune, but with an added umami,
It's even better.
I've also had the Nama-Shu in the spring,
I felt that the nama-shu had more of the Sake Mirai character.
Choroki-san, Mr. Yamagata Masamune! Sake future fire-brewed! I wonder how it will change now that I've had the raw! Well, it's not like you can just say "I'm fine if it's raw".
I'm sorry if my expression is a bit vague but I understand 😂.
Yamagata Masamune Sake Mirai, the quintessential Yamagata Ginjo Sake👏👏👏.
Refreshing and gorgeous ginjo aroma. The top nose has a grape nuance.
There is a strong sense of gas. Fresh, with a balance of umami and acidity with a little bitterness.
It is too easy to drink with a clear, fine-bodied, highly polished body!
It has a medium sweetness and spiciness.
If you drink it for the first time and are blindfolded and told it's a Jyushiro, you'll think it's a Jyushiro.
I wonder if it's because Sake Mirai can produce a sense of high purity that you wouldn't think it was 50 polished rice.
I can't miss Yamagata Masamune's Sake Mirai either 🤗.
3,900 yen without tax, a price that makes sense👍
I end up buying Aizan and Sake Mirai brands. Yamagata Masamune was also a good Aki-agari, so I had no hesitation in buying it. It has a melon taste and a light fizzy taste, which I like. Yamagata Masamune is going to be my favorite.
During a trip to Yamagata Prefecture in September, I stopped by Tendo City, Yamagata Prefecture, and visited Kawarako Sake Brewery when I saw a banner banner for Yamagata Masamune.
What I saw there was Yamagata Masamune brewed in Aizan. I had to buy it 😊.
The raw material rice is 100% Aiyama from Hyogo Prefecture
Polishing ratio is 50%.
Alcohol level is 16 degrees
The specification is bottle heating.
When the bottle is opened, it makes a pleasant popping sound and contains a light gaseous sensation.
The aroma is gorgeous but not overly fruity, with a refreshing base of muscat, pear, and citrus, to which sweet nuances of apple and pineapple are slightly added.
When poured into a sake cup, it has a clear, pale golden color and a smooth, silky texture.
As you take a sip, the round, plump, mild sweetness and umami that is typical of Aizan spreads in the mouth. The palate is immediately followed by a refreshing, yet slightly sharp acidity. The aftertaste has a fluffy rice flavor, with a moderate bitterness that sets up the lingering aftertaste, and it seems to go down smoothly 😊.
I had it at room temperature, but the sweet umami flavor seems to expand even when warmed to lukewarm.
