It's a gold carp from Seimasamune 🍶.
I couldn't drink it in Nagano so I went to Shinbashi to drink it lol
The aroma on the nose is slightly sweet like molasses.
In the mouth, it has a sweetness reminiscent of refined Japanese sweets like Wasanbon and the clear and smooth flavor of Yamae Nishiki.
It is very tasty and sweet because it is made from highly polished rice in a four-stage brewing process.
This is a sweet 😊.
The third one is at the Seimasamune brewery, about a 10-minute walk from Shinshu Nakano Station on the Nagano Electric Railway Nagano Line.
The president of the brewery was available to us and said that they currently produce about 100 koku of sake.
I was surprised at the surprisingly small number.
Good evening, Matsuchiyo 😃.
The Gold Carp from Seimasamune looks delicious...I'm attracted to sweets. Shinshu Osakemura is a place I've been curious about and would like to visit😊.
Matsuchiyo-san❤️Good evening‼️I love Masamune too 😍but I haven't had Gold Carp yet. I'll have to go look for it 💪It looks so delicious and I'd love to try it paired with sweets ‼️😋.
Good evening, Mr. Peckho 🍶.
I have never paired sweet drinks with sweets, but it was a very fine sweetness that made me very happy😊.
It was very delicious ✨️
Sei comes out with different colored labels for each season!
This sake retains the flavor of the rice and has a sweet mouthfeel with a clean aftertaste.
Nagano Sake Boutique Tour (1)
The weekend before last, we had planned to go to Chiba, but it was suddenly postponed on Friday night, so we were free.
Okay...let's go to Nagano! Let's go to Nagano ‼️ but we don't have the same vitality as the Tsubajiya family 😅 so we decided to go overnight 🤗.
Then we looked for a place to stay and booked a reasonably priced hotel with all-you-can-drink buffet around 10am, and left at 7am the next morning!
The last time I went on a Nagano sake trip was in March 2023, so it's been about 2 and a half years 🤗.
The drive to Nagano was a beautiful sunny day with no traffic jam, so we first visited Shimizuya's Koumi Honten! Just to be sure, Nobby asked, "Do you have any Sogape sake?" Nobby asked, "Do you have any Sogape sake?" and was told that it usually comes out in February and March and is sold out right away, so they don't have any now.
The sake trip is still going on, and I'm going to drink the sake I got at Hara's. I told shinsaku3 & Pekho that I wanted to drink it.
I'll make love to you!
The aroma is...! It's so sweet and sour and fresh!
I'm going to drink it for the first time........
The third one is the kids I brought from Nagano 🤗I only have one bottle of wine in my 👋.
to be continued
Good evening Jay & Novi ^ ^.
Apple CARP is delicious 😋.
I went to Hara Shoten in the spring. There was a wine sogapale at the far end of the store. Igeta miso is also mild and delicious 😋.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby😄.
Great 🤩The kids in Nagano are all honor students, they are all brilliant ‼️ Did you have a relaxing time after a long time? Sei Masamune is your guess, isn't it? ❣️ I knew it was delicious 😋 I want to drink it 🍶.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby😊.
For a moment I thought it was Naruto sea bream... 😹.
We don't get to travel to other prefectures very often 😅.
The sake you brought with you is a great lineup too: ☝️
Looking forward to your review!
Mr. Jay & Mrs. Nobby

I didn't know you could get Katsuma in Nagano, let alone Shinshu Kamerei! I've been looking all over Toyama City and can't find it... but I'm looking forward to drinking them all 😘.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌇.
You have begun your touring journey 🚙.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌙.
Nagano looks like a fun place to visit. And you brought a great number of people with you... ♪
I wonder if there are any up coming inns with all you can drink 🤔.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😃.
Mr. Sei Masamune, we were worried that the sweet flavor might be a little strong, but the international J &N standard high evaluation ❣️ Wow 🎊
We too are now wanting to drink it again 🍶.
The third one, nice lineup 😋.
Jay & Nobby, good evening 😃Great trip to Nagano 😊Lots of great sake souvenirs, must be fun to remember Nagano memories when you drink. And the Apple carp looks delicious ❣️

I'm so inspired by the Tsubuya family😅
Jay & Nobby, I like your trip to Nagano! Nagano has a lot of good sake and delicious food too! Great souvenirs kids😊 looking forward to your future reviews. Sei Masamune is also low al and looks delicious!

Jay & Nobby, good morning 🌞I'm impressed with your mobility to decide on a trip to Nagano immediately after a change of plans ✨️ carp looks delicious 🤤I guess because the leader is a personality, the kids are all Genius and I get sake trip envy 🤤💕.

The process from rescheduling to coordination to execution is fantastic 😲.
And the drinks you brought with you are a fascinating lineup 🤤.
I'm sure you had a great sake trip with the perfect drinks 🤗.
Jay & Nobby, thank you for your hard work! Your quick decisions produce great results. Mr. Karp is my favorite one. Personally, I'm interested in the three left undrinkable kids from the green label and the rightmost red.
Hi Jay & Nobby 😃
Nagano trip! What a fun trip 🥰I'm jealous of your liquor store visits...you bought a lot 😳I hope you were able to stretch your wings and enjoy yourself since you are usually so busy ✨.
Hi Jay & Nobby 🌞.

I think you'll like the taste👍
Hi Jay & Nobby ☀☀☀☀!
I don't miss myself sneaking "Katsuma" into the Shinshu sake this time too 🥰.
Come to think of it, I haven't had "Sei Masamune" yet 🤔.

Of course I'm reviewing the drinks, but it's so awesome that I'm more interested in the many kids... (LOL)
I'm jealous that you're enjoying your trip to the liquor store ✨.

Hi Jay & Nobby 🐦.
I see you were in Nagano 🎶 great action! You two are the best 😊.
Congratulations on your first Sei Masamune 🎉It's delicious 😊and many of the sakes have a cool appearance!
Good morning, Pon 😃.
I feel like the theme of drinking is what gets me excited about action 😄Nagano is fun🤗.
Really! It was a great flavor with great momentum 😋.
It's been a while since I've had a Seimasamune ❗️
This is my first yellow one 😊.
It seems to be an autumn sake but the taste is quite crisp ❗️
Maybe because of the yeast and lactic acid used.
It has a strong acidity and a moderate sweetness.
It is more like a summer sake than an autumn sake 🤔.
It is very refreshing and easy to drink with various meals.
It is a sake that can be easily matched with various meals 👍.
The softness and mellow flavor of glutinous rice can only be obtained from "four-step glutinous rice brewing. Unlike the yellow and red varieties, it is mellow with a low acidity.
It has a good balance of floral and umami flavors.
Sei Masamune Junmai-shu YELLOW CARP - Bottle warmed and fired - 720ml
90% Hitogochi rice produced in Nagano Prefecture
Hime-no-Mochi 10%.
Rice polishing ratio 59
Alcohol content 14%.
This sake is quite refreshing and tasty. However, it has a long aftertaste, and the umami comes gradually afterwards! It is very good!
Sei Masamune
Rating 4.4-4.5
Rice: Hitogokochi (90%), Hinemochi (10%), Ingredients: rice (domestic), rice malt (domestic), Rice polishing ratio: 59%, Alcoholicity: 15.9, Sake degree: -3.0, Acidity: 1.7, Amino acid: 1.4
This is a new take on Marusei Shuzoten's traditional four-stage glutinous rice hot brewing process. While retaining the flavor of the rice, it has a gentle rounded taste with a sweet mouthfeel and a clean aftertaste that can be served cold or warmed.
It has a rounded, gentle taste that is bright and refreshing whether served cold or warmed. It also has a freshness to it. The acidity is effective and the aftertaste is refreshing.
Fresh rice aroma.
Sweet and gassy on the palate, with a sweetness that fills the mouth
Not too sweet, but a refreshing sweetness
Good balance of sourness and sweetness
Mellow and juicy sake
