It has a complex flavor, with a smooth mouthfeel followed by a spicy, but not only spicy, slightly sweet taste.
Ryujinmaru became famous through the manga "Moyashimon," but because it is made in a small brewery, it is not easily mass-produced and is said to be a miraculous sake. As usual, I was able to encounter the sake that I knew from "Moyashimon" and had hoped to try someday.
The taste is mellow, clear, and common...
It seems that the brewery is having trouble with this "common taste". I found out that the brewery's toji at the time of the explosion of popularity of "Moyashimon" passed away at a young age, and his wife has now taken over the brewery. Therefore, it seems that the Ryujinmaru of those days has changed a little.
Despite this background, it is hard for drinkers to have much to do with it.
I am an ordinary person who is not a sake taster or anything, so I don't have the vocabulary to describe this Ryujinmaru well, and as a result, I am sorry that I can't say anything more than "a common taste.
I thought, "I'll try it again in a few more years.
Classic aroma. Taste of something I've never had before. A strong alcohol taste rises to the nose. My throat feels irritated. But it is not unpleasant. Sweet but refreshing. Nutty. It's like rum raisins with cheese!
Yamada-Nishiki, 50%, 5,460 yen for 1 square bottle.
Following the May production (shipment), we drank the slightly aged August production. I savored the mellow flavor of the rice slowly and carefully. We drank the new nigori sake in parallel with the new sake at ☺️.
As you would expect, this brand would give you a much richer texture and also complexity in smell and taste. It actually offer a fresh cheese smell, together with some nuttiness of roasted nuts and chestnuts. Clear umami which is staying for long enough. Some coffee / toffee feel as well.
As before, we received Wataru's Ryujin Maru today. Has that lost its rarity?
I received an explanation that the original author of "Moyashimon" passed away suddenly, but his successor revived it.
However, this is my first time here, so I haven't checked the authenticity of the item. I am not sure.
Good morning, Nochi-san 😃.
I think you are probably referring to the fact that the 8th toji of Takagaki Shuzo who brewed Ryujinmaru passed away suddenly at a young age in 2010, and his wife suddenly took over as the 9th toji and Ryujinmaru is still being brewed today!

Did you have a petit offline meeting?
New Rebaya in Shinjuku is reserved for up to 4 people, the price has gone up, and the variety of sake has gone down a bit. But it doesn't change the fact that you can drink a lot, so the 4 of us went there with Yuka-Chin, Nochi-san, and Rigel-kun, the organizer of the party. Thanks for the reservation😊.
The first thing that impressed me was this Ryujinmaru. I had heard it was hard to buy, so I had to try it. On that day, I just kept saying "I want one too" as other people ordered 💦.
It's very rich. Great flavor 😋.
The yakitori flavor was so-so, but it's strong enough not to be defeated. I had been drinking at a fast pace until I got here, so I decided to try this one! I had been drinking at a fast pace until I got here, so this one drink seemed to calm me down 😄.
The third picture is a tree in Minato Mirai. I don't really know what it is, but everyone was taking pictures, so here it is 🌲.
Good morning, Manachy 😁.
E👀.
You shouldn't call a banquet with such and such nocchi as petit. He just happens to be attending a banquet with a small group of people😊.
