Purchased for a year-end extravaganza.
I've been into Daishinshu recently, and I've never had a bad experience with it. (The only drawback is that it is a bit expensive...).
It has a gorgeous aroma, a rich and mellow taste, and the change when it is paired with a meal.
I would like to visit the brewery someday.
My favorite North Alps is Daishinshu, and this time I tried the "raw" version. It is indeed dry, but I also feel sweetness, and the aftertaste is still very sharp. It is an unfiltered sake, so I feel it is a bit strong. Now, I'm getting into the New Year's mode.
Daishinshu Tank-filling Junmai Daiginjo Tamboshibori Nama.
It is an unfiltered, unpasteurized, raw sake made from the 2025 harvest of new rice Hitogochi.
It is the first new sake from Daishinshu, brewed with 49% polished Hitogokochi rice. How will it turn out this year?
It has a gorgeous muscat-like aroma and a freshly pressed gasiness. The silky touch, carefully squeezed in a vat, expands its fruity sweetness and mellow flavor. It is consistently fresh, even down to the refreshing bitterness of the aftertaste.
This year, too, the taste is unmistakably delicious!
We opened a bottle of our favorite "Daishinshu" sparkling draft, which we were having for the first time.
I opened the bottle slowly while reading the instructions on how to open the bottle, but when I let my guard down at the end, the bottle blew up to the ceiling and was opened. Scary.
The bottle was stirred unexpectedly, and I took a sip while it was still cloudy.
I felt a pleasant acidity and a dry, juicy flavor. As the bubbling gradually subsides, you can taste sweetness from deep within the umami. This is delicious. ‼️
This is a must-try aperitif to go with Japanese, Western, and Chinese cuisine. It is delicious. ‼️
It is not aromatic, but when you put it in your mouth, the fruity flavor spreads.
It is an elegant taste.
We had it with oden, but it would be better with carpaccio or marinade.
It is said that the sake was matured in a wind cave in the northern Alps.
Sake rice is Hitogokochi.
Polishing ratio is 59%.
I wanted to try a slightly higher grade of my favorite Daishinshu, so I chose this one in a paulownia box!
The price is quite reasonable, but I wondered if it was really .......
The aroma is concentrated fruit.
The taste is also very rich, with the flavor of rice!
The finish is crisp and dry.
It is quite silky to drink, with a beautiful flavor that fills the mouth.
This is delicious!
It is sometimes difficult to tell the difference between different prices of sake, but this one is clearly of a higher grade.
We will continue to follow Daishinshu in 2026!
Merry Christmas! Today is fresh Daishinshu's Toyojo Club own rice and sake brewing ( ꈍᴗꈍ) I participated in 2024 and experienced everything from rice planting to sake brewing! (I'm participating again in 2025)
And it's so delicious! I knew it tasted good, but I didn't know it tasted this good! It tastes juicy and bright in your mouth and makes you feel good!

Hello, seal3game 😃.
I see you are participating in the Daishinshu Club ❗️ I couldn't make it this year 😭
I'm interested in the event, partly for the Takahara Masamune, but also because I heard that you can experience the event from rice planting 😄.
Hi Hiro 😊Thank you for your comment! Personally, I think the most attractive thing is that you can experience sake brewing (rice washing and preparation), but I also think the social events where you can drink Daishinshu after rice planting are also attractive. I will definitely come next year!
I am the strongest~~~
I found the strongest Donbei duck, so I bought it â
It is indeed the strongest, I also feel like the strongest after coming home at midnight on Christmas Eve and eating it 🤣.
I got this sake from Choroki: ❗️
It has no aroma!
On the palate it's thick water🤣.
But then the umami comes in slowly with a time lag.
It has a nice melon taste, sourness and bitterness. It's really tasty!
It is a versatile food sake 👍.
I want to drink this again ❗️ so Choroki-san, please help me out 🤣!
The 4th picture is the beef tongue shabu shabu from the company's year-end party❤️ it was so delicious❗️ I'm sorry I couldn't drink sake😭
I also want to do no pants shabu shabu if possible❤️Santa, please take care of me❗️❗️
Oh, it's too late now 🤣.
Hi Manachy, I'm sorry to hear about this. I'm not sure if you can find it 🙂.
I'm a duck dashi from Donbei, if I can find it.
I would like to buy it. ☺️
Beef tongue laid out, wonderful!
I'm sure it's great. I'll have to try it 😋.
Manachie, aren't you too early for New Year's Eve soba? 🤣
By the way, I'm planning to buy the same one for New Year's Eve 😄
This Kamodashi strongest Donbei is the best 😋💕.
Manachy-san, this windhole storage is very good, isn't it? I drank it the other day and thought it was delicious.
I have read the rice so far. Only Nopan, Donbei, and Beef tongue. I'm the only one commenting on sake.
That's what I mean.
Good morning, Nochi-san 😃You are indeed a sullen Nochi 😃❗️ you pretend to be serious with your thoughts on alcohol, but really you are searching the internet for miniska santa no pants shabu shabu 🤣⁉️
Good evening, Mr. Manachie 🦉.
The best donbei duck dashi is delicious ❣️ haven't had it in a while 😁.
The meat is awesome too 😁I feel the end of the year 😊.
Christmas Eve boo!
So we opened a bottle of Daishinshu sparkling!
I was so excited that I went out of my way to buy an ice pick to open the bottle because I knew I would have to use it to release the gas, but it opened up much easier than I expected.
But it was full of gas, and the dry taste made it perfect for an aperitif or even a mid-meal drink!
I prefer sparkling wine with this much spiciness.
