It has the freshness of new sake, a slightly sweet but light taste, and a slight bitterness on the back end along with a slight effervescence that keeps you from getting tired of drinking it.
This is the same brewery as Yamashiroya.
This is the third kind of souvenir sake 🍶 from Niigata Nagaoka. The word "super direct pumping" gets me excited😍.
Let's try it!
It's a little tight on the palate.
It's a little tangy on the palate, but that's because it's directly pumped.
It is fresh and lush, but then the mellow umami hits you. You will be drowned in the umami. But the next moment, it cuts off quickly and is dry & sharp. I love this 😋.
Nagaoka's sake is too major to come out in Tokyo, but there are great sake in the ones that don't 🍶.
Koshinotsuru is rather weak? I was not a fan of Koshinotsuru, but this one was delicious. It has a pleasant aroma that tickles the nose, is refreshing, and goes down your throat nicely. I want to drink it again.
Nagaoka souvenir sake🍶.
It is the store's PB.
It is a honjozo sake, so the aroma is weak.
The first sip is gentle.
In the middle, it becomes sweet.
The final sip is dry, but a little sweet.
Conclusion: As the name suggests, it is deliciously spicy, but it lacks a little impact.

The grain flavor is very strong.
The grain flavor of this super dry honjozo is very strong!
Kashiwa Dew Super Dry Junmai Sake (Sake Value +15)
Cream cheese? It wasn't cream cheese,
It was not cream cheese, but it had a spiciness and umami that was different from that of a honjozo.
Oh, I don't have enough words! LOL!
I enjoyed it a lot and it was great 🤤.
I like it because it has a strong sake character.
I can feel the rice flavor without overdoing it.
The aftertaste is clean, dry, and light.
It is good cold or warmed up.
Tasted at Ponshu-kan at Echigo Yuzawa Station.
Fruity aroma, mild sweetness, and rice flavor. It is a delicious taste that should be savored over time!
