Today, I went to "Sake Masashi-san" who runs a liquor store by himself.
Mr. Masashi Sake, who runs a sake shop on his own.
Rising pineapple
Pineapple on the palate!
A little sweet and gentle
But the mouthfeel is deceptive?
I found myself drunk and with little left over!
It's only for the fall season, but it's snowing outside.

Nagano sake is originally my favorite, but this one is new to me. I had it with fried shimeji mushrooms as a snack. I really liked this sake, which was full of flavor and slightly sweet to match the mushrooms.
This is the first Gassen in a year. It has a fruity aroma with a hint of acidity. Let's try it.
It is a little sweet, but the acidity makes it not at all bitter!
It is different from Natsuzumi and Yukizumi from the same brewery in both mouthfeel and feel. A liquor store I am familiar with said confidently, "It's our hit product! I can understand why the liquor store owner I know so confidently said, "It's our hit product!
It's just like a cup of tsukimi! I recommend it. ‼️
I accidentally bought this sake because of its cute label, and I drink it while eating mushrooms.
I'm drinking it with mushrooms.
It's sweeter than I expected, and I'm sure I'll drink it after dinner, too.
It's probably a minor brand in Japan, but it's been getting rave reviews around the blogosphere, so I set my sights on this one and bought it for this year's summer sake. By the way, are there really only 3 special dealers nationwide 😳 (PS: You indicated that you think there are 4)
The aroma is mild and slightly rummy.
When you drink it, there is a little ripe fruitiness, like orange or alcohol for a moment, then the umami comes, then a little bitterness, and then it starts to kick in.
The sweetness becomes stronger on the second day and the impression improves. It is a bit similar to To Kaizakari, but not as sweet as To Kaizakari's Nama-zake.
On the third day, it is heated to 40°C and 45°C. The first taste has a fruity or sugary sweetness. The sweetness comes out first, but then the spiciness comes out with a slightly ripe umami, and it becomes spicy and sharp. When cooled, it becomes sweet without losing its sharpness. It is best served warmed.
It has a very high degree of perfection, and although it is 13 degrees Celsius, it does not feel thin. It is modern, but has a good umami flavor, and is medium rather than light, which is unusual for a low-alcohol sake. It's not obvious unless you are told that it is a summer sake, and it seems to be a somewhat modern all-year-round sake. It is very difficult to say that you dislike it, regardless of whether you are a modern or classicist.
It is made in March and shipped in June, and seems to be slightly matured on purpose.
It is said that it is best when paired with mushrooms, and although there are no mushroom dishes, it is delicious!
Not too sweet and just a hint of acidity!
This is my first time to visit this brewery, and I was reminded that Nagano is still great.
The lady at the store seems to have pushed it in.
