Nagano Prefecture
Special Junmai Nama Shu
Rice polishing ratio 59
Alcohol 17%.
Purchased in front of Matsumoto station on a trip to Nagano.
The aroma is intense with a strong alcohol taste.
The rich rice flavor spreads in the mouth.
It also gives the impression of a strong white wine.
It is very drinkable.
The nose...apple, with some sourness.
But there is a herbal...refreshing breeze flowing behind it, and it seems to converge smartly rather than swell.
Is this really 17 degrees? It's light and slushy. Certified dangerous💮.
The next day, the full-bodied chile freshness is still there.
The next day, the full-bodied chile-freshness is still there. The mild fruity flavor overflows with acidity, and the final withdrawal is still early.
I keep asking myself, are you sure it's 17 degrees?
It's a delicious and dangerous drink that just keeps getting better and better the more you taste it 🍶.
Hi Kotaro 😃
We drank our first bottle of Daisetsukei a while ago and it was also 17 degrees, but it was a dangerous one 😅 delicious 😋.
I wonder if it's really 17 degrees 😆.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌙.
We referred you to the review we had a while ago 😄It was an abcellent one that was so good that we drank it all up 😆.
I think I really need to test it next time to see if it really is 17 degrees 🧐✨.
Our recent favorite Daisetsukkei: ‼️
Cosy and all delicious Daisetsukei😊.
I had high expectations for this sake too.
It tastes much better than I imagined😍.
Fruity, sweet, sour and juicy‼️
I thought it was pretty sweet and it has a sake level of -29😅.
But it also has a strong sourness, almost like a plum wine?
It also has a hint of gas and an aftertaste that's not so bad.
It's very refreshing: ❗️
Even people who don't like sake can drink it.
It's like a white wine with strong sweetness and acidity. ❗️
Good for western food 🤔.
I have other summer sake from Daisetsukkei on standby.
Looking forward to it😃!
We visited for the first time in six years because Taisetsukei, a brewery that we have been pushing for, was going to hold a sake brewery festival. The weather was not so good, but we enjoyed the brewery tour and all-you-can-stuff sake kasu (sake lees). The sake lees ramen was delicious.
Among the various drinks we had, this is the sake sold by weight from the server. It was made with Nagano R yeast, which produces a lot of apple acidity, and had a fruity, sweet and sour taste. We are looking forward to the shipment next month.
By the way, the "R" in R yeast is not "Ringo" but "Reiwa. So it is a new yeast.
Ji-san, welcome 😄 to Ikeda-machi, Nagano Prefecture.
Unfortunately I couldn't make it due to work, but I'm glad you had a good time 🫶. I'm sure the sake 🍶✨ served at the brewery is exceptional. Please come again 🤗
Thanks for your comment, nomihei 😊! I like to go to the warehouse open house events from time to time, and this time the Ikeda Town Chamber of Commerce and Industry provided a shuttle bus that went around the JR station and the road station, so it was cheap to get around. nomihei, you should come next year 😆!

A sweet, apple-scented sake. It is not a typical Daisetsukei sake, but I like it. Directly pumped from the limited server during the brewery opening. It is fresh and crisp. I think it goes well with Sanzokuyaki.
Azumino Ikeda-machi Sake Brewery Festival 2025 5/24 10:00-16:00 Daisukei and Fukugen in Ikeda-machi opened their breweries for the first time in 6 years.
The Daisetsueki venue was very lively with a live performance by a singer from Nagano Prefecture and many oily stalls. The brewery tours were good with quite professional explanations. There were 14(!) free tastings and 7 paid tastings. It is interesting that the more expensive the tasting is, the more delicious it is.
The fresh amazake (sweet sake) that they serve is delicious.
I'm sure there are some people who went to the same event as the Kamidori brewery opening, but I couldn't make it.
