I wanted to try some new sake just because it was that time of year, and I found myself in Daishinshu.
The owner, who sells a lot of Daishinshu, told me for the first time that it is called "funa-shibori" (pressed in a tank). When I asked him what kind of sake it was, he said, "Well, would you like to try it anyway? I asked him if he would like to try a sample. The aroma was fresh! It smells so fresh! The mouthfeel is very fresh and beautiful, but then the umami comes in! It's sooooo good! I immediately decided to take home a bottle.
By the way, the reason there is no label is because the owner went all the way to the brewery to fill it up! This is a very precious sake!
Well, as soon as I got home, I opened it...
It's so cold!
It also says on the back of the bottle that it is stored at -3℃ to 0℃. Thank you for the solid temperature control😊😊The color is a little cloudy, quick and tasty! It looks clear and refined. Oh delicious 🤤🤤.
This year's new sake is delicious too - I'm so happy 😆😆😆😆.
Hi there, Satsyuu😄
I wondered why newspaper 🗞️⁉️ 🧐 is such a thoughtful and precious one ‼️
The length of the "ー" shows the emotion 🤗.
Good start to the new brew 🤗.
Daishinshu Hana-ochu 2024 720ml
Ingredient rice: 100% Kanamon-Nishiki contract-grown rice from Nagano Prefecture
Alcohol content: 16%.
When we visited Za-kura in GW, we were told that this sake had just arrived.
I was told that this sake had just arrived and I said I would buy it! I will buy it!
I was in no hurry to drink it because it was not a draft sake, but I opened the bottle somehow.
I found out that it is a collaboration between Chihiro Koshi, a painter from Nagano Prefecture, and Daishinshu Brewery, which started in 2015 (brewed in 2014)." The brewery is also using Nagano Prefecture's rice. The sake rice is also from Nagano Prefecture, so it's an all-Shinshu sake 🫨.
And the sake? Of course it was delicious 😋.
Nagano sake🍶.
The label says super dry, but when you drink it, you don't feel dry at all 😋, rather sweet and delicious.
This is a sake I would like to support in the future.

A great Shinshu for the home!
It is sweet and tasty in the mouth, with a hint of acidity when finished. (It has a perfect balance of sweetness and deliciousness on the palate and acidity when finished. It is a delicious sake. It goes well with hot pot.
I said "it goes well with hot pot" and drank more than one cup before the hot pot was finished 😅.

Daishinshu - Yaebaru area
Rating 4.4
Original rice used: 100% Kanamon-Nishiki, contract grown in Nagano, 16% alcohol by volume.
The Yaehara district is characterized by its volcanic clay soil. Rice grown in this soil has a firm "grainy" flavor, as if one is eating "delicious rice" in one's mouth, giving it a unique appeal. The depth of the clayey soil is made lighter and more refined, thanks in part to the effects of the special drop-removal process.
Basically, it is light and refreshing. The profile is quite mellow. A dry, lingering food wine.
Alcohol content: 16%.
Rice polishing ratio: 49
It has been a while since I bought sake at a liquor store.
I had previously enjoyed a sake made with Hitogochiki from Nagano Prefecture by Daishinshu, so I bought another one.
It had a strong aroma and a very strong umami flavor.
I really liked it, so I will drink Daishinshu for a while.
