The first time I drank fire-brewed Mikotsuru was delicious, so I chose unfiltered raw sake 🍶Gohyakumangoku♪ Both the aroma and mouthfeel are fruity like Gohyakumangoku♪ The aftertaste is sharp with a good amount of bitterness! The bitterness is not to everyone's liking............................................It is also good as a food sake. ⭕️ It's very fresh only because it's a fresh sake 🍶! Nagano sake 🍶 is high quality 🤔.

The first Mikotsuru! Aroma: A hint of fruity rice aroma... sweetness on the palate, followed by an aftertaste of just the right amount of bitterness! Aftertaste from the sweetness...good bitterness to a sharp finish! I like the sweet, mellow, umami taste of Nagano sake 🍶... Nagano sake never fails me 🎵Yummy 😋 Hey... this too... there was some delicious looking "raw bonito" so I had this with it... the "fat" was so rich that you would never guess it was bonito this time of the year... I'd like to try the unfiltered raw one next time,

🍶🤓. It's labeled as dry, but it's fruity, sweet, smooth and easy to drink! Typical of Nagano Prefecture? Sake. Delicious. ✌️

As usual on a business trip to Nagano, I was at a liquor store in a station building, and after much deliberation, I chose this one, which was a no-brainer. The ginjo aroma is refreshing, and the first sip has a refreshing sweetness like apples. The final sip has a dry aftertaste with a slight tanginess in the throat. This is the type of sake that everyone likes. It was definitely delicious.

Off-line meeting with Kanto members on the second day (3) Banquet at a secluded sake bar I'll only give you the ones I remember the taste of. Mikotsuru Junmai Ginjo Gohyakumangoku Very refreshing for a Mikotsuru 😳. I was surprised because I was expecting it to be sweet 😅 The label on the back said dry 😳 I remember talking with Ane-san about how good the orange label Mikotsuru was 😋.

あねさん
Yes, that's right: 🙂‍↕️ I was surprised because I had a preconceived notion that Mikotsuru was sweet. I may remember more of what we talked about than the taste of the sake during those two days.

Good evening, Ane 😊. Good experience to know that Mikotsuru also has a dry version 😁. I was so engrossed in talking that I don't remember much about the sake 😅.

I found this at a liquor store I entered during a cherry blossom viewing walk. It has been a long time since I have had this Mikotsuru. It has sweetness, but it also has a delicious flavor that is typical of sake. Mikotsuru is my favorite sake brewery. I would like to visit other sake breweries in Suwa again to compare the taste.

This junmai ginjo is made from Yamae-Nishiki sake rice, which was recently developed in Nagano Prefecture and grown by the brewery's contract farmers. It is a sake with a clear and full taste. It is a very fruity sake!

The Suwa Mikotsuru Sake Brewery 🍶 is located in Shimosuwa-machi, Suwa, Nagano Prefecture. There are five breweries in Kami-Suwa, including Masumi, Honkin, Yokobue, Reijin, and Maihime, but only one, Mikotsuru, is located in Shimo-Suwa, one neighborhood away. The only sake brewery in Suwa is Mikotsuru, and they are doing their best. The sake is crisp, refreshing, and watery, as only sake from Suwa can be. It was a delicious sake that everyone could enjoy. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Item:Sake Ingredients:100% Miyamanishiki Polishing ratio: 50 Alcohol content: 16 Rice grown in: Suwa City, Nagano Prefecture Producer: Ban-ei Transport Co. 　　　1 Daiken, Shimokawa, Izumi-cho, Iwaki-shi, Fukushima Manufacturer: Ban-ei Transport Co. 　　　Suwako-Otsuru Sake Brewery 　　　3205-17, Shimosuwa-machi, Suwa-gun, Nagano Prefecture

Izakaya Shinkansen 2 We went on a trip to Toyama in Hokuriku! We will have sake on the Shinkansen with open bottle caution. What a luxury 🎵. Fresh and juicy from the microbubbles, but with the refreshing feeling of Gohyakumangoku. It's still the best.

@Bon, thank you for your comment. I take Izakaya Shinkansen on the way there and back, and I also get good food in my hometown. I couldn't eat firefly squid sashimi in Toyama this time, but Toyama is also good♪

Jay & Nobby Thank you for your comments. Lately, I have been accompanied by Miko on the Shinkansen. LOL I haven't even been able to upload my March trip to Aomori yet, but I stocked up in Toyama again. 😆😆
