It has a refreshing ginjo aroma with a clear and refreshing taste. It is a well-balanced sake that can be paired with just about anything.
Serve with a plate of snacks.

I went to Koyama Shoten to buy some Masamune in pursuit of it. I wanted to take a picture of the label 😁.
Sweet aroma when you open the bottle.
Clear sweetness and clear acidity on the palate. Alcohol is added but it is clear 🤭.
The ginjo aroma is a bit muted, but the finish is easy to drink 🤗.
Nice Masamune👍
Here is some more information about Masamune.
According to the book "The Science of Sake," there is a theory that "Masamune" was first used in the Edo period by a man named Taizaemon Yamamura from Nada. He named it after a scripture of Rinzai Masamune because the words "seishu" and "seishu" were close in feel. When it was released in Edo as a descendant sake, it was read as "masamune," and as Nada sake became popular in Edo, a number of breweries began to use the name "Masamune.
Later, when it became possible to register a trademark, Masamune was not accepted due to a large number of applicants, and each brewery decided to register their own name as ◯◯◯ Masamune.
Incidentally, the Yamamura family is said to be the brewer of Sakura Masamune. So the brewer of Association #1 yeast is also the originator of Masamune... 😳

Hi Hiro, good morning 🌅😀😀
I think you are drinking a good guy 😊Tetorigawa Daiginjo hoshi 😊You are drinking a good guy 😚👍I was drinking niji 😀I learned that Masamune had such an origin 🤔✨✨.
Maechen, good evening 🌙
I was torn between 🌈 and 🌈, but in the end I chose ⭐️ based on the label 😆.
I learned about the roots of Masamune for the first time in this book. I thought it has a proper history 😆.
( ➡😋😋)🍶🍶🍶🍶
I had a niji from Tedorigawa today 😋I think I had it more than 10 years ago🤔.
The aroma is mild and not too much 😀The color is light amber 😘The mouthfeel is soft, beautiful umami and sweetness of rice🌾😊The acidity comes slowly 😚It will be a slightly dry and crisp sake 🥳.
The 4th one is a photo I took yesterday when I went to Kenrokuen Garden for a walk 😙The leaves are turning 🍁🍂 in some parts? I wonder if the best time to see the leaves will be a little bit later 😅.
Good evening, Maechen.
Kenrokuen Garden is a beautiful garden 🍁The leaves are getting later and later each year, but I would like to see them when they turn bright red 😊.
The label on the Tedorigawa River also gives a nice soft feel to the landscape✨.
Hello Maecin 😃
Tetori-san from the art 🖼️ label! I remember you had a chance to see it at the beginning of the year 😋I unfortunately could not make it this year 🥲 but I hope to make my trip to Hokuriku happen next year 🤗.
Good evening, Pon-chan 🌃😀
The autumn leaves at Kenrokuen seemed to be a little later 😭The big pine trees were hung with snow 😊The autumn leaves 🍁and the snow hanging ⛄ give it a very seasonal look 🐜😚✨.
Jay & Nobby, good evening 🌛😀😀
This label of Tedorigawa is somewhat warm and wholesome 😊💕It is also safe and secure inside 😚👍Please come and have a drink of Ishikawa sake too 😁.
Kanazawa Marathon sinking... ⤵️⤵️
It was my worst run ever 😭
I bought some local sake to contribute to the recovery efforts.
I bought "Tedorigawa" and Noto's local sake "Sogen" as souvenirs for my friends 🍶.
The taste is elegant, mellow and soft.
Tetorigawa" is delicious.
I would like to run the marathon again with a set of local sake. 🏃♀️
Hi Koi 🐦.
I see you participated in the marathon 😳 Good job! That's awesome ✨I love the combination of participating in the event and the local sake 😊Good luck and drink what you ran👍.
Pon.
Thank you for all your comments ❗️
I'm running for the sake... 😅I'm going to enjoy the new fall sake now that I've refrained from drinking for a while 🍶.
Jay & Nobby.
Thank you for your comments!
It's really nice to hear from you 😭
I have one more entry for February, so I'm going to be drinking a lot for a while 🍶.
I'll continue to work on my local sake & orchid set 💪.
It was a challenging drink!
Slightly tangy and slightly effervescent.
The taste is very much like sake rice flavor!
It had a bitter and sour taste and a strong aroma (peculiar)!
I think it is a sake for different tastes.
