The bottle was opened lightly.
On the third day, it was opened with more light shupon.
It is light, but the elegant flavor sinks in afterwards. It has a gaseous taste and is delicious 😋.
Next month there will be a Kenshin Sake Festival in Joetsu Takata, but the guest brewery has not been announced yet❓❓
I'm sure they will be there 😄
Hello @Mizuhashi😃
This is Masayo-san from here! It was a bit expensive 😅 but I took him to a liquor store yesterday 🤗.
It's been a long time since I've been to Masayo! I'm looking forward to drinking the light flavor 😋.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌆.
I am sure you will enjoy it!
Maybe we can meet with the brewer next month at the sake festival and I'll explain the background of Masayo-san 😄.
I didn't realize it was a three-day weekend until just before the holiday and I don't have any special plans, so I'm going to be a kitchen drunkard while cooking dinner.
The other day, I drank a glass of Hokusetsu, and I'd like to tell you about my latest acquaintance, Okini.

This time, it's the middle bottle and surprisingly, it seems to be the brand that I drink the most.
When the bottle is opened, it has a gaseous feeling.
The aroma is of fresh fruits such as sweet muscat and green apple. The taste also has a chili gas and a refreshing juicy fruit acidity, but it also has a nice sharp aftertaste, just like an adult Mitsuya cider 🥤.
The alcohol content is low, but the flavor structure is firm and it is still delicious 😋😋😋😋.
I'll probably open a second bottle of something soon to switch it up as it will be gone in no time 😊.
Hello, Kirataso 😃.
I'm more than happy to know about the three-day weekend... I can safely leave Masayo-san's day ahead of you. ‼️ We got Masayo-san at a liquor store far away today for the first time in a long time 🤗.
The third glass is Gagakuyo. Refreshing feeling from the slight bubbles. The sweetness that comes slowly. A sharpness like thunder. I have never had Garakudai before, but it is very good.
A clean and calm ginjo aroma. The aroma is subdued, but slightly reminiscent of white flowers and lychee.
In addition to the neat, lightness typical of Niigata, it has a gentle flavor and roundness typical of the Garakudai series.
The finish is clear and refreshing.
We opened a bottle of sake that was prepared for the recent brewery opening at our house, but was not opened until a week later 😀.
It's a low-alcohol summer sake with a cute print label by Masayo Garakudai, who is well-known at Sake no Wa.
I was sure someone would choose it 🤣.
It was a very nice sake with a presence that didn't make you feel low alcohol, but flowed beautifully through the bottle😇.
I'm a little disappointed that I didn't get to drink it with you all 🤣.
Hello, Yasbay 😃.
Kochira Masayo-san! We wanted to drink it 😋 but the timing was not right this season 🥲.
You could have had a drink if you went to Yasbaye's house 😆.
Good morning, Jay & Nobby 😀
Too bad... if you two had come to the brewery opening, we would have opened the bottle 🤣.
It was a delicious sake that was easy to drink in summer with a refreshing taste and acidity from the white malted rice 😇.

Calm and refreshing aroma.
Slightly dry and refreshing.
12.5 degrees Celsius. It is light and gaseous, so it is easy to drink 😆.
