This is a hanpukai sake from Masuruya Sake Brewery.
It is a junmai-shu, which is rare among the Masamune Instruments.
The aroma is similar to muscat.
The first taste is sweet and acidic, but it is crisp and dry.
There is a slight alcohol taste in the aftertaste, but it is not bothersome. In general, the taste is smooth and delicious.
I have not been able to see it very often, but the other day I found it at a liquor store in Sendai.
Pears? Peach? It has a fruity flavor like pear or peach and a refreshing taste, perfect for the hot summer season. This is delicious. The four-pack bottle would be empty in no time.
And I noticed when I bought it that the package is surprisingly cute, with musical notes written on it, lol!
I found this instrument Masamune at Ginza Imameya. Since it is called Dewa Sanzan, I decided to compare it with Dewa Sanzan from Dewa Sakura.
Although made from the same rice, this one has a fresher, lighter flavor, perhaps due to the fact that it is a mixed brew. Even though the alcohol content is the same, it does not have the same stickiness as the other sake, which is probably unique to Masamune.... I could drink this as much as I want. In a sense, it is dangerous.
Purchased at liquor store upon returning home.
Fruity! I can drink more and more!
It is refreshing and easy to drink.
Maybe it's because the alcohol content is low.
The taste is stable.

The more carbonation you feel on your tongue, the more it tastes like carbonation.
While the carbonation recedes, various tastes come and go like playing a musical instrument.
The aftertaste is not unpleasant.
It is unique!

Short to medium length. The aroma lingers softly and quickly disappears.
Impression: Gorgeous, fragrant, light and dry.
I tasted the genius instrumental Masamune from Aruzoe, which is in the Hall of Fame in my opinion.
It has a fruity aroma of pear, which is typical of Musical Instrument Masamune. The sweetness is well balanced with the acidity, and the slight carbonation gives it a refreshing feeling.
It stands out for its clarity and lack of clutter, which is typical of the Nakadori style.
It is a terrific sake that can easily be enjoyed on its own.
