- RYUSUISEN was purchased because of the label!
It starts with a slightly fruity aroma, then sweetness and sourness spread in the mouth. ‼︎ The bitterness comes at the end and it has a nice sharp taste. ‼️

The 15th North Alps Sake Festival 9/6 13:00-18:00
All-you-can-drink festival at Ichinoya, Hakuba Nishiki, and Kitaan Okuni breweries if you pay the entry fee.
Ichinoya's DJ played music and even had a mirror ball, making the event even more flamboyant than last year's. The sake was good, but not great. But the sake is good. It's a shame.
Is this a summer sake? No, it says on the back label that it is aged in ice temperature. This is probably the first time I've tasted Ryusuisen.
I have been to Omachi City to fetch water, which is a nice place, especially in summer.
The sake has a "hiyaoroshi" taste, perhaps due to the time of the year. It's a good feeling.
A gift! It is very tasty.
The first sip had just the right amount of crisp acidity and melon-like juiciness. It had a good balance of fruitiness and acidity.
It is also light and easy to drink at 13% by volume.

This bottle is produced by the Ichinoya Sake Brewery in Nagano. It is said to be brewed using water from the underground streams of the Northern Alps, and is also unique in that it is brewed by a female toji. The fireworks here are said to be made from 100% Omachi.
It has a refreshing grapefruit-like aroma and acidity. The sweetness is restrained. While fruity, it is also good as a food sake.
Sake from the spring where the dragon lives
Slight aroma, smooth attack. The taste is dry with a little habit. It goes in smoothly and has a light richness.
The label, the taste, and the atmosphere of the sake 🤣.
