Trial of Gassan
2024 innovation malic acid
The first sip after chilling it well...
I couldn't help but say "sour! A little crackle? A little sweetness, a little sourness and a little bitterness in the aftertaste.
A little sweetness, a little sourness and a little bitterness in the aftertaste.
Gassan has a lot of fruity
But the aftertaste is sometimes "it's sake".
This innovation doesn't have that.
Personally, I prefer Urazukiyama in winter.
It's true that it's an "experiment".
I thought it tasted like a challenge from the usual Tsukiyama.
On a different topic...
Is wine-like wine in fashion?
I don't know.
In general, it tastes more like the white wine you drink with French cuisine than sake.
When I put it in a glass and let it sit for a little while, I felt that the sweetness increased more than the acidity.
Personal favorite
I like it very much.

The aroma is like a raw sake with the smell of vinegar etch.
The taste is a strong capsule! The acidity is rather strong, and it suppresses the sweetness a little. (It may be a good food sake as well?). But the sweetness lingers in the aftertaste, so I would like to try pairing it well! I'd like to try pairing it well!
I bought this bottle because it was highly recommended by the store owner! I love Gassan's challenge stuff! 😍
I asked the waiter if he had any soft-water brewed sake and was introduced to this bottle. I wanted to study soft-water brewed sake because a friend of mine had joined a brewery that brews sake with the softest water in Japan.
The aroma is fruity and sweet. The nose is fruity and sweet, with some lactic acidity.
I was surprised at the lack of stickiness from the first sip to swallowing. The alcohol is also felt to a certain extent, which is typical of standard sake. The taste is "soft and fruity. The delicate balance between the softness of soft water and the fruity flavor is addictive. The ending is well-balanced with a hint of sourness and bitterness. I feel that I have found an exemplary answer to the question of modern sake made with soft water.
What kind of snacks to pair with this sake? Fruity sake is difficult to pair with, but I think it would be a good match with fatty grilled fish such as Hokke.
This is a bottle that showed me the possibilities of soft water.
Finally, drinking this reminded me of Aizu Chusho. That soft and delicious sake is tentatively ranked as the most "surprising sake" I have had this year. I would like to try to find a sake that surpasses it.
Please try it.
Good morning, Sake My Life 😃!
I just had a bottle of Amezure, which is made with hard water, so I'm really interested in this one, which is the softest water of all 😍and Gassan is one I've been wanting to drink 😙.

Gassan Hiyayogoshi has a modest top-fragrance aroma. From a clean mouthfeel, bitterness and astringency in the latter half. This is a sake that reminds one of the depths of autumn.
The pairing is tuna cheek meat with fruit. The red wine-soaked extract comes out from the chewy tuna meat. Five kinds of fruits accentuate the acidity and texture.
Gassan innovation malic acid
The aroma has a strong aluminium smell and a sour atmosphere! It's a bit sweet on the palate!
The mouthfeel is rather sweet! The acidity is unique to this and gives it a freshness!
Overall, it's easy to drink because it's so light 😍😍😍.
The innovation series is still interesting! Looking forward to next season! ☺️
My mother gave this to me as a souvenir from a trip to Shimane!
Like Mitsuya cider with a strong fruit flavor?
It is easy to drink with no pungency at all.
Today we have Izumo's Gassan.
Rich, soft and sweet.
Refreshing and refreshing sweetness.
It is different from the heavy dry wines from the Sea of Japan side.
It is a bottle with an intoxicating feeling.
