Tonight, I opened this bottle because I wanted to drink Shinshu sake for the first time in a while since I felt like the first bottle of Kisupa was going to run out soon 💁. Iraka Gin-Mori Yamahai Junmai Unfiltered Unrefined Harajuku 2024BY🌳✨ It's been a little while since I've had an Iraka. The 4th edition has a dazzling dark green etching, and since it's Yamahai Junmai, my expectations are high. ⤴️ The opening of the bottle was a nice gas release sound 😊. The aroma has a refreshing pleasantness of green herb 🌿, green apple 🍏, and muscat, which is typical of Shinshu sake 👍 The taste has a light acidity and the sweetness of rice, while the aftertaste has a nice sharpness that is typical of Yamahai junmai. Overall, it has a light and modern sake quality with a spodoli-ish flavor, and this was one of my favorite bottles of the first half of the year, so delicious and so high on my list 😋🐴🎠💮.

Silver/Kuro Unfiltered Nama Sake Rice：Matsugawa-mura, Nagano Prefecture, specially cultivated rice "Hitogochi Alcohol content: 15%. We went to Daigo Kanazawa...all-you-can-drink excellent sake course 3,500 yen, 120 minutes. I'm so excited 😆. We started with "Iraka" first. There were 7 of us, so we were told to drink up the magnum bottles already opened. There was also a gold series, but it was impossible to drink as much as we could. No wonder😅.

Japanese>English

Hello @Mizuhashi! I'm so glad you had a good time at Daigo with your friends 🥰. I had "Iraka" and "Nabeshima SummerMoon" myself, but I can't stand the fact that you can drink all the sake you want ✨. I see...so you can drink all you want if you are a big group 🤔.

Hello @Mizuhashi😃 We adore Daigo 🥹I'm glad you have good drinks as much as you can drink 🤗I hope I can manage to make my dream come true!

Hi Jive, good evening 🌆. If there are a lot of people, you will be in a kind of tatami room in the back. I went to the counter and asked if there was enough food in the fridge for everyone 😄. I was in charge of ordering 😄.

Japanese>English

Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌆. Your fridge over the counter looks like a fish tank 😄. I'm sure you'll have fun 😉.

まさし

Satisfaction: ★★★★☆ I have been wanting to try this tasted. The aroma when the bottle is opened is small. When you put it in your mouth, you can feel the thickening and strong sweetness and umami. It finishes gently with a little aftertaste. The aroma is a bit like mango. There is no sawdust smell. It is hard to describe, as it seems to be a refreshing type of Nagano sake, but it is not too strong despite the impression of being quite rich. It is hard to describe. If served as an aperitif, it would taste bitter, so it would be better as an aperitif.

It has a strong apple taste, but the aroma is not too strong, leaving a bitter taste at the end. The mouthfeel is quite refreshing, and the sake is easy to drink and delicious!

My second time to drink this brand - still I think the wood smell and taste is too prominent. While it is clean and fruity style, it needs to be placed a while for the wood taste to blend into the sake, which makes me a bit confused.

［After leaving "Soba Restaurant Oyabu", we walked all the way to "Shusenan Mizukami". After sweating off the amount of alcohol we had consumed during the day, we entered the restaurant, which was full of drunken sake that lived up to its reputation 🥰. After 20 minutes of perusing, I took home two bottles ✨. I'm going to have to stock up on more Shinshu sake 😅. From there, we headed back to Kanazawa station to our next destination [Sakeiki Daigo] 🚶. First, we quenched our thirst with a bottle of Akaboshi, and now let's drink 🤣. First, I'll start with the one that caught my attention 🍶. Iraka Gin Kuro Unfiltered Nama Sake Soft apple-like rice aroma, a refreshing sweetness similar to that of apples, a calm sharpness, and a slight bitterness on the nose at the end. Excellent with the asparagus tempura we ordered for our entrée. We drank several alcoholic beverages here, but due to check-in adjustments, we will disclose the other alcoholic beverages on another day 🙇.

Hi Gyve, good evening 🌙 Kanazawa sake terror trip, everything about it makes me too jealous😍! Daigo is a restaurant I would love to visit, but now I want to go even more 🤩.

Japanese>English

Hi Hiro-san! If you come to Kanazawa, I highly recommend Daigo! However, it's a weekday and they say it's booked up after 6pm, so you'll have to either open at 3pm on a weekday or make an early reservation ✨.

Japanese>English

Hi Jive 😀 I see you went to Daigo😊I haven't been there for over a year myself so I'm jealous✨.

Hi Jun-san! I often go to Kanazawa around Korinbo, so it was fun to walk in a different area this time 🥰. I'd like to have a Hokuriku Off-line meeting this year ✨.

🎂 Good day to you, Today is the birthday celebration of Sake no Wa no Tanudoru. I was going to ask my senior (not the one who looks like Ding 😆 ) who is coming with me to Nagano to celebrate with me, but he said "I still have more than half of the four-pack I bought the day before yesterday left" 🥲 so I went to my usual standing bar alone. I decided to drink only expensive sake, so the first thing I ordered was a comparison of Iraka. To my surprise, they served Yamahai. It was a 60ml bottle, so I drank it right away. Then, Mr. Katsumi Tanaka, the master brewer of this brewery, appeared at the restaurant. Wow! He said, "Well, I just had an Iraka drink comparison. The Yamahai was so delicious! When I said this, the handsome old toji-san asked me to shake his hand. I'm not good at making Yamahai," he said. But when I made it with water from Matsukawa Village, it turned out delicious. It was a good experience for me. There were many customers that day, all of whom had been there for 10 years except for me. Maybe I'm dropping more money at one time than they are 🤣.

Happy birthday to Miss 🎉! It's kind of awesome that the toji of the sake you were drinking, even though he's local, suddenly appeared on the scene 😆.

Good morning, Kotaro😄. Thank you 🎉. It was also worth listening to the flood story when there was still a sake brewery in Toyono. He said that in times of trouble, the last resort is to ask God for help. He is a very good storyteller and I understand why he has so many fans.
