Nagano to Niigata
The scenery in Niigata is really beautiful!
I was so caught up in the scenery that I drank my third bottle early in the morning!
This sake is delicious with a slightly bitter taste!
It's a great combination with local snacks, the spiciness is tempered by the sake and the sweetness of the sake is tempered by the snacks 😃.
Keeping my health in mind, I guess I'll stop here today 😭.
It was another good drinking iron today: ‼︎
Good morning, Nobu Nobu-san 🐥.
I see you've made it out to Niigata 😳It looks like you've ridden an incredibly long distance! And I see you've already stopped at this time 😆 Have a great day 🎶.

Daishinshu Sake Brewery
Matsumoto City, Nagano Prefecture
Nigorizake has a strong image of sweetness, but it is quite dry. It is delicious. It is not too much sake in a good sense. It goes well with any meal.
And as the package says, it is a sparkling, dry Japanese champagne.
Contract-grown "Kinmon-Nishiki" rice from Nagano Prefecture is used.
Full aroma
Very smooth on the palate with a firm sweetness.
Long aftertaste
Full-bodied and crisp 🍶✨.
I'm into Daishinshu these days, its super dry!
There are some sake that are called "dry" but are rather modern, but this one is truly super dry.
It has a punchy umami flavor, and then it quickly cuts out, leaving you with an unintentional "ku" (gasp)! You can't help but feel "KUUU!
Even so, it still has the cleanliness that is typical of Nagano. In fact, this cleanliness gives birth to a wonderful sharpness.
The sweetness is moderate and a pleasant acidity spreads. The umami of the rice comes afterwards, but the aftertaste is so refreshing that it keeps you coming back for more. It is delicious!
Today's first drink is Daishinshu.
It has a very good balance of lightness, deliciousness, and various other characteristics while being refreshing.
Delicious!
The third purchase on the Nagano trip: ‼️
It's a great experience to be able to buy at the brewery. ‼️ And I can't resist when I hear it's a limited edition from the brewery, but I already bought 4 bottles on my trip to Nagano, so I'll just have to hold out for one... Next time I go there, I'll buy more、、、、
Now, from the aroma: ‼️
It smells slightly sweet, but I think it's almost odorless. My stupid nose can't decide ‼️ (laughs)
Now for a sip ‼️🍶🍻
In the mouth, I feel a pear-like sweetness, followed by an alu feeling, with a slight bitterness at the end, and the sweetness remains.
My image of Daishinshu was mostly dry, but I think it is a much sweeter sake. Indeed, the brewer told me that this one is much sweeter, but it was sweeter than I imagined.
I have a strong image that Nagano sake has a beautiful aftertaste because of the good water. I have two more reviews left, but I'd like to do it slowly 🍶.
I'm really into Daishinshu today.
There are many delicious sake from Nagano, but I think I actually like Daishinshu the best.
So I opened a bottle of Daishinshu's Inamitsu.
I don't often look at the room temperature section, but for some reason, my eyes fell on it.
The overall impression is of a thick core, with a smooth, lean body.
But it also has a minerality, which is typical of Daishinshu.
It has a strong flavor, but it is not too heavy, which is one of the characteristics of Taishinshu.
It is a brand that makes you want to follow it more deeply.
The first aroma was sweet. When you drink it, you get a dry impression with a little sweet dryness and moderate bitterness, and it goes down smoothly. This is delicious. It has a complex flavor, but it has a dry image but is also soft and delicious. I didn't feel much of a hint of incense. It is good both on its own and during a meal. It seems to show its full potential during a meal. I knew Daishinshu was delicious.
It goes well with Negitoro no Nameko and Ponzu Motsu.
My favorite!
