Yamagata Masamune's summer sake, Natsu-no-junmai.
This is my first time drinking it.
I've been curious about it every year,
but I had been buying other sake every year.
This year, I bought it first.
It is a refreshing summer sake.
It is junmai (pure rice), but it is drinkable even on a very hot day.
It is a junmai, but it is drinkable even on a very hot day.
It is delicious!
As the temperature rises
the more the temperature rises, the deeper the umami is felt and this is also delicious.
I enjoyed it very much 🙏.

Impression: Slightly dryer than Kaoru-shu
The aroma is rather fruity and rich with both fresh and tropical aromas.
The taste is a bit sweet and sour, but the sweetness seems to come from the alcohol.
The lingering aftertaste is spicy and can easily be served with a meal.

Sake made with Snow Goddess🌾 and Dewa Sanzu🌾🍶.
The top aroma is slightly sweet.
It has a light, juicy sweetness on the palate with a refreshingly crisp finish despite being a pure sake.
I've never had much Yamagata Masamune, but this was delicious 🍶✨️

The taste is very tangy. The tanginess works well when it is cold, but it also has a nice tanginess when it is at room temperature. Delicious. I heated a small amount to try it out and it brought out the sweetness.

After returning from Matsushima, we drank at home!
We opened a bottle of Yamagata Masamune from Koriyama Izumiya's hanpukai.
The trinity of sweetness, umami, and acidity is so delicious! It has a wonderful sharpness and you can drink it all the time.
Entsuji Temple is famous for its garden, and I was healed by the moss and grove of trees. I would like to visit again in the fall when it is illuminated!
Please don't abuse me.
〜Roses on the graves are quite nice, aren't they?
Thank you very much for your hospitality!
Spending a relaxing day ⛱️ today, I picked up some seafood that I bought in Miyako yesterday and had a drink.
Let's start with the standing aroma. I smelled apple, a little ear of rice, and a touch of alcohol.
When you take a sip, there is a bit of a sharp acidity at first, followed by a juicy, refreshing mouthfeel with umami and a sharpness that is perfect for hot summer days.
First, it is served with grilled dried flounder with butter. The concentrated flavor of the flounder and the light saltiness and richness of the butter further enhances the flavor and goes well with this sake 😁👍.
Next, we served it with stir-fried squid with garlic mayonnaise. I think the Yamagata Masamune goes better with dried flounder🙆It is delicious with squid, but I think the flavor of the sake comes out a little too much. It's just a matter of balance 😄.

Jay & Nobby Good evening. The interesting thing about sake is that it tastes a little different depending on the food pairing 😁 so it makes you want to drink it again 🍶.
Yamagata Masamune summer sake!
Yamagata Masamune, have you ever had it? ......
The name "Masamune" sounds somewhat classical, but the taste is more modern and dry.
The taste is more modern and dry, with an interesting gimmick (?): just when you think the mellow umami has spread, a rich sweetness bursts forth like fireworks. It is an interesting gimmick (?).
This is a bottle to drink in a cool, air-conditioned room with a strong-flavored snack.
brightly delicious
Sweet aroma, smooth attack. Taste: bright and delicious, easy to drink, with a lingering oak aftertaste.
On a hot night, we will have a glass with a cool bottle of fireworks 🤣.
Yamagata Masamune has been good lately 😋.
This one has a pleasant fruity sweetness and acidity 😋 It also has a strong omachi-like flavor and is very sharp and very good. ❤️
I think this might have been the best one we drank that day 🦆?
I was told that they got some Spanish mackerel which is good this time of year, so I had the skin seared... 😭
The fourth image is the famous Saza Coffee in Ibaraki☕️I stopped by between business trips and had a drink while working at the stylish coffee shop☕️

A cup of this is 720 yen!
Isn't it expensive? ❤️
Hello Manachie ^_^
I often see Yamagata Masamune at the store, but for some reason I always go through it.
Maybe I'll take some home next time 🦆?
Saza Coffee

That's expensive 😁.
Hi Manta 😃Whatever you drink is very well balanced and good, so you can definitely take it home 🦆.
It's a bit too expensive 🤣even the cheapest coffee costs around 680 yen 😅.
