Machida Shuzo 55 Special Junmai Gohyakumangoku
The aroma is a mixture of vinegared iso-type and vinegared etch.
The moment it enters the mouth, a mild sweetness of Wasanbon type spreads! The sourness can be felt from the middle, but it's easy to drink with a moderate stimulation! It's easy to drink!
It was a few times sweeter than I imagined and I liked it! There's seriously no special distributor near me 😭
Machida Shuzo the other day. Summer Jun light nigori.
I picked it up this time because their 55 Junmai Ginjo Yamadanishiki won 8th place in the Junmai Ginjo category gold medal at the SAKE COMPETITION 2025.
This one is Omachi, which is unfiltered light nigori, which probably makes it even sweeter and tastier. It is a juice that will make your cheeks fall off.
Purchased after hearing it was back in stock after last year.
It has a melon-like aroma and a sweet-tart flavor,
The astringent taste comes soon, so you want to drink the next one.
I don't know the detailed specs, but it's very good.
You don't feel the 16% alcohol content, so be careful not to drink too much. We enjoyed it with steamed chicken with chives sauce, bacon soup, and grilled edamame.
My favorite Machida brewery in a long time😃.
Machida's typical aroma: ❗️
The sweetness and umami of Omachi, but with a hint of gas and bitterness.
The slight gasiness and bitterness is refreshing ❗️
It's like a low carbonated Ramune 😊.
Machida Brewery is delicious after all👍
My health checkup is over 🙌 so I paired my eel with this one today 😁.
Let's start with the standing aroma. Fruity sweet aroma. When you put it in your mouth, the sweet flavor spreads with a sense of gas. It has a good bitterness at the end and is less sweet and smoother than expected.
Serve with broiled eel. Perhaps because of the strong flavor of the eel and the sweetness of the sauce, the cloudy and bitter taste of this sake increases, giving it a unique accent. To be honest, there is nothing wrong with it, but if you ask me if it is a good match, my answer would be "hmmm..." 🤔.

Good evening, Komacchan!
Thank you for your health checkup 🍀.
After the diagnosis, you'll want to have a drink 😁✨✨.
Machida-san's summer jun is delicious 😋.
Pairing is also an important part of enjoying sake 🤗
Good evening, ma-ki. Pairing is very difficult 🧐I'll keep trying and try different things 😁By the way, maybe Machida goes better with spices or meat-based dishes?
Thanks for your health checkup, Komacchan 😊.
Your reward is eel and Machida-san. ❣️ I like both, but yes, it looks difficult to combine them 💦 Speaking of which, it's almost the Ox season! What kind of sake would you like 🤔
Good morning, Ponchan-san. I like eel and Machida myself, but this time it was a little different 😆.
Last year I had it with Sogen from Ishikawa and it went well with this one 😁.
Hi Komacchan 😃
Health checkup! Thanks for your help ‼️ I also received my results yesterday and it looks like I can keep drinking 🤗.
I guess I was right to have an eel bowl at dawn for lunch and Mr. Machida for dinner 😅.
Jay & Nobby We both want to enjoy drinking for a long time while taking care of ourselves 😁Jay & Nobby you are right, separate eel and Machida might be the right choice👍.
Machida Shuzo Miyamanishiki
We had this because the sake, which was too carbonated and difficult to drink, had just been opened. It was delicious. The snack was the ultimate Negitoro (negitoro) mixed with hon tuna and southern bluefin tuna for 600 yen.
It was named after the brewery's name in hopes of spreading the name of the brewery.
Currently, the brewery is led by fifth-generation brewer Akiya Machida and his wife Emi Machida, who is the toji (chief brewer), and they make sake together as a couple.
Machida Shuzo Junmai Ginjo Omachi
Gorgeous and good aroma. It has a sweet aromatic aroma that is different from fruity.
The taste is sweet with a clean aftertaste.
While fruity, it also has a delicious rice flavor and is very drinkable.
Delicious.
From festival to daily life.
but there was a pink Machida at the store the other day ^_^.
As soon as I opened the package, yeah, it smelled great👍.
This is delicious.
The Omachi version of the Naokumi-Series.
Plump flavor typical of Omachi.
The fruity aroma and refreshing piquancy are exquisite, along with the aroma and flavor of the same type.
Slightly carbonated! Tangy and refreshing on the tongue
Slightly melon and green apple-like ginjo aroma
Light and juicy, but with a strong umami flavor, excellent sharpness, and a clean aftertaste!
