This sake is newly started by a toji from Daishinshu.
Iraka (tiled roof)
It is clear in color and has a vanilla-like aroma.
It has a sweet and acidic taste with a clean and refreshing aftertaste.
Iraka Gin Beni Nama-shu 720ml
Rice:Matsukawa-mura, Kitaazumi-gun, Nagano Prefecture, contract-grown rice (special rice)
Alcohol content: 15%.
The last one is Beni. Three months have passed since we decided to compare the four varieties 💦.
The second lot of Kuro and Ai is available in two different versions: light nigori (nigori) and hi-ire (hi-ire). Is the second batch of BENI (rouge) fire-brewed?
It's hard to catch up with all of them.
Now the bottle is opened. Shupon and it is still very healthy.
This one is a bit more floral and crisp. My wife thought she would like the black and red, if I may say so.
Yesterday, I compared the four remaining wines, and I could tell the difference in taste and color, but a clear expression of how they differ individually? I was even more confused 💦.
In conclusion, all four are delicious 😋.

Iraka Gin-Ai unfiltered unpasteurized sake 720ml
Rice:Matsukawa-mura, Kitaazumi-gun, Nagano Prefecture, contract-grown rice (special rice)
Alcohol content: 15%.
The white one is sold in limited quantities, so the Gin-Ai is the second one, which I think came to our house in January.
The yeast seems to be different from the black one.
Now to open the bottle.
The bottle was opened with a "shupon", and it is still very healthy.
It is still in good health. It may be the easiest to drink.
The second lot seems to be fire-aged,
Iraka White (Sincere Keiai) unfiltered unpasteurized sake 720ml
Rice:Matsugawa-mura, Nagano, specially cultivated rice
Alcohol content: 15%.
The first day of the trip to Tateshina last November. The plan was to go to Ueda, Daisetsuei brewery store, Suwa, and Tateshina. I was the third person to buy at 1:00 p.m. I was the first person to buy 12 bottles, the second person to reserve 2 bottles, and the third person to ask how many bottles I could buy.
Cars were arriving one after another after that.
I found out that a nearby rice shop also handles it, so I dropped by, but it was closed on Saturday. In hindsight, I should have bought another bottle.
So, I opened the bottle.
When I asked about it at Hattoya, I was told that the white one was sweeter. Well, it was more bitter than fruity and sweet. I think it was a little out of season. Next time, if I can get a bottle for sale this year, I would like to open it as soon as possible 😆.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🌆.
I've been so happy to bring you to the party lately that I've forgotten to drink 😥.
I think the 12 bottles were from the store since you asked for a receipt 😄.
I think the person with 12 bottles asked for a receipt, so I think he is related to the restaurant 😄.
Nice to meet you Mr. Mizuhashi😃I look forward to reading your Nagano 🍶 comments.
I know 🤍White by Iraka Sake Brewery is one of the hard to find one, isn't it? I'm sure you can't get 12 bottles 😅
I'm envious of your drinking comparison 😆.
Happy to welcome you... 🥹 and I sympathize with you very much.
Good evening, nomihei🌆.
I see you live in Nagano!
That's nice, I envy you 😃.
I have a coworker at work who lives alone in Nagano, but I couldn't tell him to go to the liquor store and buy some 💦.

Rice:Matsugawa-mura, Nagano, specially cultivated rice "Hitogochi
Alcohol content: 15%.
Tsubu-chan, I saw Ane-san's Iraka sake drinking comparison and thought it would be nice, and I think it was February when I got all 4 kinds. I think the second lot is now available, so I guess it's a little out of season💦.
I bought the white one at Matsukawamura Kuramoto when I traveled to Tateshina last November. I asked if they had black as well. I asked them if they had black, but they told me that the black was only available at their distributor. I did some research and the next day I took him to Hatoya in Nagano. I told my wife that we would go sightseeing at Zenkoji Temple on the way home, but our destination was Hatoya.
Well, I opened the bottle with the birthday sake.
It is a clear, smooth and beautiful sake.
It's a dangerous sake that I could drink as much as I want 😋.
It's a hot topic these days: ‼️
This time I bought the red one😊.
There is no aroma❗️
The taste is more refreshing than I expected❗️
It has a strong wooden vat feel.
It has a good amount of umami (flavor) and a good amount of gas.
It's a sake that you can drink easily with a good amount of gas 😅.
This seems to be the newest sake brewery in Japan. I have been looking for this sake for a long time and have not been able to find it, but I happened to come across it at a liquor store near my parents' house👏.
This sake has a sweet, fruity, fresh aroma like strawberries and apples with an elegant aroma that is not too assertive.
The overall flavor is powerful but soft on the palate, with a good amount of acidity on a sweet base. It is well-balanced with bitterness, making it a delicious sake. The price is a little expensive, but it was a very satisfying sake.
Today we have Matsukawa Matsukawa Iraka no filtered raw sake❗️ freshly made and from the newest sake brewery in Japan❗️
The aroma is a fresh ginjo sweetness❗️As you take a sip, you get a dense texture on the tongue, followed by a tangy, sharp spiciness❗️After that, the fruity aroma of the ginjo leaves your nose❗️Great sake❤️

This is a new sake brewery created in 2024.
I wish them all the best.

Iraka" is a traditional Japanese architectural roof.
The brand is ready to challenge the world by taking advantage of the blessings of the Northern Alps, the "Roof of Japan".
We had the popular Iraka.
It was a very tasty sake that conveyed the quality of the ingredients.
It was a very delicious sake.
It has a good balance of sweetness, acidity, and umami.
It is a little expensive, but I am satisfied.
I would like to try other series.
