First, there is a slight sweetness and a thick flavor, with a light drift of bitterness in the aftertaste.
It has a clean, salty mouthfeel 😙.
With the sashimi, the sweetness comes out, so it looks like it would be good as a food sake 😋.
Refreshing~!
Refreshing in the mouth, fragrant through the drink?
It's delicious!
I don't have the vocabulary and I don't know what it's like, but it's a refreshing summer!

This time we were toasting to alcohol in an away-from-home state. This is the kind of thing that happens.
Congratulations on winning the highest trophy in the 2025 IWC (International Wine Challenge) SAKE category Junmai-shu and becoming the champion sake.
The current president, Takeshi Sakurai, graduated from the University of Agriculture, and after training at Dewazakura, he returned to the brewery. The year he returned to the brewery, Mt. Asama erupted, and he chose the symbolic mountain as the name of the brand.
I got it at a sake brewery on my Manza Onsen trip last year: ♨️
I kept it for a year because I wanted to enjoy it paired with Akizakura. We are now ready to open the bottle 👍.
When opened and poured, it has a bright yet aromatic aroma of prunes and kiwi.
The mouthfeel is pure and clean, just like Gunma sake. Immediately after, there is a hint of shellfish? Tide? A fresh green feeling? The unique flavor of fresh greenery?
Then comes the stimulation of a spicy and astringent taste. After the stimulation is gone, the round flavor of rice spreads out, although it is light and delicate.
The bitter taste of caramelized sweetness in the depths, and the sharpness that rounds off the taste in a clear manner.
The complex and deep flavors that emerge from the clarity are interesting and delicious!
The "Higen" series from the same brewery is one of the sharpest in Gunma in terms of spiciness.
While at its core it has the same atmosphere, the different worldview is impressive ✨.
A gift from my sister who lives in Karuizawa.
She told me it seems sweet, and indeed it is a little sweet, but it tastes like ramune, some sourness, delicious 😋.
A little old, but the day after, I was a little excited to see the Kanda Festival, which I have been familiar with for a long time 😃.
