I was told of its existence at a sushi restaurant in Roppongi in 2018 or so. Since then, I kept finding it and then passing it up because of my refrigerator situation, and when I wanted to buy it, it was sold out, so it was off my wish list. But this time, I happened to see a review of it at a certain liquor store, and it looked delicious, so I ignored my refrigerator situation and went out and bought it. I wonder if the aroma is quite weak. I've been drinking a lot of fragrant stuff lately, so maybe my nose is getting a little stupid... but it has a nice muscat aroma. But it has a nice muscat aroma! I love this! I was so swooning that I couldn't help but read the words in a robotic tone. The elegant grape-like aroma. Wine? The taste is completely different from wine, though, as there is no astringency. The acidity and aroma make it seem fruity. At first it seems dry, but as the temperature rises in the mouth, the sweetness that appears and the hints of aroma make it seem juicy somehow. It is beautiful, but it is not limited to that; you can also taste a voluminous fullness, which is very satisfying. It is the most delicious wine I have had recently! Impressive!

Hi flos_lingua_est 😃 Oh, it looks like you got into this one perfectly: ☺️ This time it's brewed by Mitobe Brewery, but I've never had Yamagata Masamune yet either, so I'm suddenly curious. I'd love to try this one too 🤩.

Hi Masaaki Sapporo, Good evening! Sorry for the late reply 💦 due to signal failure. It's probably almost gone from liquor store shelves, but if you see it in a tavern, maybe... 😊✨
