100% "Kinmon-Nishiki" rice grown under contract in Kijimadaira Village, Nagano Prefecture, is used.
This junmai ginjo has a gorgeous aroma and a light yet deep lingering finish.
It boasts a crisp, dry taste with excellent sharpness.
Hokko Masamune!
I was curious about this brand because I had previously had a sake from the series called 59 Sake and it was delicious!
I also had it in last year's hanpukai and it was delicious 😋.
The aroma is subtle but fruity 🍈.
It reminds me of sweetness, but the taste is quite refreshing ✨.
It's quite dry and tasty, but has a nice sharpness in the second half 😋.
It's a great food sake!
The toji is the same age as me, so I wish him the best👍
Overall 7 (out of 10)
On 5/18, I had some business in the Nakano area of Shinshu, so I stopped by Kakuguchi Sake Brewery and bought a bottle of this sake, and drank it in my hotel room. This is my second bottle today (300ml, but... 😅) 🍶. 😅) 🍶.
The spiciness is strong from the beginning to the aftertaste, but it wears off quickly.
Light on the palate.
The spiciness is strong, but there is also a hint of rice in the background.
It is dry, but you can feel some rice in the background.
If you like dry sake, you may be able to drink it in a way that brings out more of its potential.
I served it chilled.
I was impressed by the aroma.

Good morning, shinsaku3!
I used to live in Shinonoi, Nagano city and the name Shinshu Nakano made me nostalgic 😌I didn't drink sake back then 😅It's nice to have local sake there 🤗.
Hello Jay & Nobby😃
I visited a sake brewery on my trip, heard many stories and bought some local sake,
Tasting the sake you bought while remembering it 🍶 is the best 😃.
It's the best 😃.
My grandmother's house was in Minamimaki Village, Saku County, so I have a special place in my heart for Shinshu 😊.
I opened a bottle of this one because I ran out of Eikyun.
I thought the name "Masamune" might have a sharp taste, but it was gentle and pleasant, just like Nagano sake. I thought it might have a sharp taste, but it is gentle and pleasant to drink, just like Nagano sake.
It is very easy to drink and delicious!
Thanks for the drink!
The sake is crisp and refreshing both at the beginning and at the end of drinking!
I am glad that I received this set of sake, because it is a delicious sake suitable for a mealtime drink and has broadened my tastes!
The 6th (last) glass of "Masamune Shibari
Hokko Masamune Spring Junmai Ginjo
This is also the first time to drink!
Slightly acidic, with a predominant aroma.
Sweet, bitter and acidic on the palate.
The sweetness quickly disappears and bitterness reigns strong.
The taste is refreshing with a clean aftertaste.
Hi Haruei Chichi, hello here too😊you drank a lot ‼️ you also drank before Masamune Shibari ⁉️ you and your wife are strong 😆 which Masamune did you both like😊?
Good evening, Haruei Chichi😄.
It's great that you can drink so much Masamune Shibari. ‼️
It's fun to compare drinks like this...
I'm sure there are many more Masamune's out there that I don't know about yet😆.
Galilan, here you are too 😊.
If you ask me which Masamune is my favorite, I can only answer that I like all of them 😁.
If I were to go sticky, it would be Gakky🎷 and Dove🐦 🐦!
Hi T.KISO 😃
Ne, it's an interesting project, isn't it? ⁉️
