Saku Kurosawa Sake Brewery, Nagano Prefecture❣️
The Saku area of Nagano Prefecture has a thriving sake brewing industry and nearly 10 sake breweries‼️
Every brewery is unique and interesting 🎯.
I wish I could go there for the first time in a while.

Kinmonnishiki direct pumping raw sake
100% Kanamonishiki from Nagano Prefecture
Rice polishing ratio: 65

I was opening the metal before opening the lid and it went off halfway through.
I've always been a fan of gassy liquors, but this is out of the ordinary.
It's carbonated!
It's right up my alley.
Not sweet, dry, very nice.
I was surprised.
Junmai Sparkling (test brew)
Alcohol content 12%.
This was also served at Miyajima-san last month. It was opened and closed three times until the bottle was opened.
Fine bubbles 🫧, slightly sweet and sour. Of course it is delicious 😋.
Well, I'm off to Ueda for one night and Oku-Nikko for one night from today ^ ^.
I'm off on a trip to a brewery, a liquor store, and a hot spring ♨️ 🫡.
@Mizuhashi, hello!
Shuwa shuwa shuwa shuwa is a very energetic sake and the label is beautiful 🎵.
I hope you're already in Nagano and touring the various breweries 😁✨.
I can only imagine the bliss of a hot spring and a cup of sake in the evening 😍!
Have fun 🤗
Kurosawa Junmai Daiginjo Kinmon Nishiki
Rating 4.4
Rice: 100% Kinmonnishiki, Polishing ratio 45%, Alcohol 16%, Sake degree -2, Acidity 1.5
This is a hiyaoroshi (cold-roasted sake) with a production month of February and a shipping month of September.
This Junmai Daiginjo is made from Kinmon-Nishiki, a rare sake rice from Nagano, and has an exquisite sweet-acid balance, emphasizing sweetness over aroma. It has a firm outline, but also has a mild acidity that is unique to namaoto (sake brewing). It has a deep aftertaste that is interesting even when heated.
2024BY: A nice, easy drinking sake, 16.5 degrees, but goes in rather smoothly. Sake degree -9, acidity 3.2.
It has a colorful taste! The acidity rises with meals. Is it the taste of the unique house yeast? It has a different taste when served with rice. It becomes rounded. This can be enjoyed with meals!
They say the taste changes every year because of the natural yeast attached to the house. So you should try it. This year's is also available and I want to buy it this week to compare. Interesting!

I was a little prepared for this sake because it is a "nama-hashiroshi" aged sake, but it has a beautifully concentrated flavor with a calm sweetness and light acidity, as is typical of Nagano and Kinmon-nishiki.
The aroma is gorgeous, like apples or white peaches. This is Junmai Daiginjo!
