I was on my way home by JR from Mizukami Onsen, and took advantage of the 20 minutes I had to wait for the Shonan Shinjuku Line to transfer to the Shonan Shinjuku Line to carry two bottles of Gunma fresh summer sake at "Gunma Iroha" in the Takasaki Station Building 🎒.
The first bottle, which I chose on a hunch from among more than a dozen varieties kept refrigerated, "seems to go with everything" and "can be drunk on the rocks," is this one with a cute dog illustration of Akagi Mountain.
As I had hoped, it goes with everything on the rocks, from home Chinese to Japanese side dishes👍.
Lightly rummy, not too sweet, light and gentle, with a light rice flavor ‼️ It's another very hot day today, perfect for a weekend dinner in the air-conditioned living room✨.
According to an online search, some people are looking forward to this summer limited edition sake, and I found a really good summer sake 😊 Thanks for the treat 😋.
Good morning, Powan Powan 😃.
If you have 20 minutes to transit, you can buy alcohol, carry two bottles 🎒Great move 😊.
This label is fascinating! I'm glad you have the intuition bingo ‼️
Trip to Ikaho Onsen with family.
Local sake.
The aroma of rice and alcohol is strong.
It is aromatic and dry, but has a smooth texture that is typical of freshly stored sake.
It has a strong, robust flavor.
New spring and summer appearances 🐶.
I've been buying this series every year since its debut, and each year it changes in composition and flavor, making me want to keep up with it ✨.
When you open the bottle and pour it, it has a fresh green apple aroma.
The mouthfeel is light and gaseous and refreshing. It has a lightness that makes it hard to believe that it is an unfiltered, unpasteurized sake. It has a slight sweetness and a touch of a splash, making it almost cider-like in flavor!
Of course, it also has a freshness that is typical of nama sake, with a melon-like overtone.

The cool taste and sharpness are typical of Akagisan, even when unfiltered.
The cool taste and sharpness are typical of "Akagisan" even when unfiltered. The scenery of Akagisan (⛰️) in summer, which is called a natural refrigerator, seems to come to mind!
When it gets hot, this is the one to go for!
The clear and cool taste of rice with a slight light flavor. It has a clear, refreshing coolness with a slight light rice flavor, and a crisp, pleasant dryness with excellent sharpness!

Akagisan Kasumisake Junmai
My first Akagisan, which I bought in a packet because it was so cute.
I expected a sweet sake with a slight hazy ooze, cherry blossoms and pink bottle, but there was almost no sweetness.
I googled it and found out that it is "a brewery that has been consistently producing dry sake since its establishment and has become a man's sake" 👦🏻
