Sampled this at a festival of young breweries (mostly). Out of the 10 I tried, this one stood out the most so I bought a bottle to go. It was both complex and crisp. Would definitely buy it (and a few more) in a heartbeat if I encountered it again. One to remember. Well named.

Slightly floral melon-like top
The same fruity aroma as the first sip, a moderate sweetness, and the umami of rice spread with a soft acidity and are quickly quenched by a slight bitterness and the dryness of the alcohol.
The dryness of the alcohol gives this sake a good sharpness in spite of its aroma, giving it a classical impression in the latter half of the bottle. It is more suitable as a mid-meal drink than as a stand-alone sake.
It went well with grilled sea bream, various sashimi, simmered pork, simmered sea bream, fried fish, and other dishes made by my wife's brother.
This is a brand new to us.
This sake is made by a method called "Hanegi Shibori," which is rare in Japan. It is a new brand conceived by the son of the toji (the fifth generation of Yoshidaya).
It has a soft sweet aroma. When you drink it, the sweetness of the rice slowly fades away, giving it a rich, mellow flavor. It has a classic flavor, but it also has a slightly modern feel due to the fact that it is made with Oshiroibana yeast.
Good evening, Gula-san😄
Oh, I've never heard of or seen Nagasaki sake 🍶😳Mellow, rich and classic, I'm curious 🤔The amount of alcohol I drink is far below what I've ever had in this world 🤣.
Good morning, Mr. Gura.
I thought it was distributed in Nagasaki Prefecture, but I see you can buy Mansho in Fukuoka as well: ❗️
I drank one last year that used oshiroibana yeast, but I'm wondering how it has changed with the new brand 💡.
Hi Aladdin! I was completely unaware of it and found it at a liquor store I go to regularly. It's a classic type of sake, but I think it's easy to drink without being too heavy. I will continue to try new drinks that I don't know about!
This is a Nagasaki sake that we believe is new to us. When you drink it, you first feel the sweetness of the rice. I did not buy sake before boarding because I thought I could not bring a large amount of liquid on board with me, but when I heard it was okay, I bought it immediately.
The taste is a sake that can be enjoyed with a meal with a good balance of sweetness and throatiness. It was a treat.
I went to an antenna store in Nihonbashi in search of Nagasaki Prefecture's sake.
Come to think of it, one of the current (late 2022) NHK morning dramas is set in Goto, Nagasaki Prefecture.
Antenna stores are really convenient.
I chose this sake from a selection of sake.
It is made by a rare process called "Hanegi Shibori".
The aroma is slightly sweet, but the taste is less sweet, and the acidity and bitterness are stronger.
There is also a lingering aftertaste.
It is dry.
At Kuwabara Shoten.
It has been a long time since I have had Nagasaki sake. It has an interesting name.
It is said to be slowly pressed in a rare spring wood press tank.
It has an elegant sweet aroma.
The taste is smooth and soft sweetness.
Kuwabara Shoten offers a wide variety of products, which I enjoyed.
The tsumami is also unique and delicious.
