It has a clear, mellow, and smooth taste reminiscent of 🍎. When chilled, it has a refreshing acidity, and at room temperature it is a deliciously sweet 🍎 taste. It has a refined taste that sinks in easily.

This is my first time at this brewery. I would like to know how many sake named Masamune there are. It is delicious with a strong sake flavor. The label looks like a dairy.

We enjoyed it very much(^-^)/.

Sake and Sake vol.3 ⑤. We joined Higu and Nanoha and had a great time 😚. It is a fruity, gorgeous and sweet sake made with soft water! They recommended it to me... 🙄 ...

Fukui Sake 🍶. While waiting for the Thunderbird on a business trip to Fukui, I went to a bar and compared three different kinds of sake. I had three kinds of sake selected on my own. All were delicious and it was hard to choose one over the other, but the Manazuru sake was my favorite! I wish I could have had more!

Japanese>English

Sour and refreshing. It has almost none of the heaviness that is typical of junmai sake. I drank it for dinner, but I think it is better to drink it in the evening.

Rice used is unknown. According to the owner of the sake shop, the sake is aged for three years, but there is no strong sense of aging, and it is a dry junmai-shu with a good acidity. It is a dry junmai-shu with a lot of acidity. The sweetness that spreads fluently and the spicy astringency in the latter half are very unique. After a few days, it becomes more crisp and easy to drink. For my taste, I'd like to have more of a woody or smoky flavor. Either way, it's not a type that will appeal to everyone. The mainstay of this brewery is Yamahai brewing, so it will be interesting to see how peculiar it is.

I thought it might be limited to direct sales, but I was able to buy it at a liquor store. If you go down the shopping street near Okamachi Station, you will find an old shopping center with a supermarket in it. This is a community-based liquor store that is housed in it. They carry a wide variety of sake brands such as Yukitsuru, Asakayousei, Katanozakura, Kaygetsu, Sakura Masamune, Ootsuru, Shiraoi, Haginoduro, Shikizakura, and others. They seemed to be putting a lot of effort into craft beer and wine. The rice is Gohyakumangoku and Koshibuki. The rice is lightly cloudy to the point of being orikara. Basically, it is spicy, but the entrance is clean, and it tastes good with a firm umami and acidity in the latter half.

Japanese>English

Purchased at Takatsuki Hankyu. To be honest, they have a smaller selection of alcoholic beverages than Umeda Hankyu, but I think their lineup is more tasteful than Umeda. Umeda relies more on on-site sales. You can also buy Kuninonaga and Kiyotsuru at Takatsuki Hankyu. Grape and banana-like atmosphere. Not too sweet and spicy, but clear and beautiful. I wrote "clear," but considering it as a dry wine, I wonder if it is a mellow dry type. I said it was spicy, but there is a moderate amount of sweetness. It is a modest type of sake, but you can't go wrong with it.

☆☆☆☆☆ Bullet to Itoigawa to eat anglerfish hot pot. So, local sake. The first one is Yukitsuru. The aroma is like a strong sake, but it is easy to drink. It is not light and dry, but slightly sweet. I think it is good.

It has a sweet rice aroma rather than a fruity one. Unlike the popular sake of today, it has a strong bitter sweet taste...mellow umami taste...you can feel the flavor of the rice...it's a Junmai with a strong presence...it's like a sake for the sake connoisseur.

Japanese>English

I wish I could have been there 🍶🍶🍶🍶 I had business in Toyama, so I bought it at Liquor Pocket Mizuhata by the way. It's a great way to start the day. I had it after a long time, but it is still good.

Next, we open a bottle of "Izutsucho"! When the bottle is opened, there is not much of an aroma, but there is a coffee-like aroma, such as café au lait, that can be detected. The palate is light, but the taste is milky and milky. There is also a bitter and astringent taste, which gives the sensation of drinking a green tea latte 🍵. THE caffeinated beverage! This is so addictive👍

Dam Mature! With the cooperation of Nagano Prefecture and Sakuho Town, we are experimenting, researching, and promoting the use of the audit corridor of the prefectural room dam built for flood control in the blessed nature of Shinshu, not only as an effective use of existing facilities, but also as a method that reduces energy load and is distinct from the standardized storage method of refrigeration. Experiments and research on storage and maturation over the summer are conducted and released! The pleasantly soft mouthfeel and gorgeous gin aroma are bright and mellow, and the depth of flavor has increased over the summer.

Sweet and sour, faintly effervescent, with a delicious sweet aroma. No oakyness. Kurosawa nama-hashiroshi tokubetsu junmai nama sake mixed with some kind of sake. It tastes awfully good. Kurosawa Shuzo Autumn Sake Brewery Open House 2025/10/4 (Sat) 9:30-15:00 The tasting starts 5 minutes before 9:30, so it's pretty loose. Suki. Sake lees soup, amazake (sweet sake), kasuzuke (pickles with sake lees), and barrel sake will be served. 30 kinds of sake are available for tasting for 1500 yen (only the first glass is free for KEG). Local vegetables and snacks from restaurants are also available for purchase. The event attracts a wide range of customers from children to the elderly. The Matsumoto - Saku area is only a short drive by car through a tunnel, but by public transportation, access was moderately difficult as you had to make a detour to Kobuchisawa. But it was a great harvest for the gods.

Keiryu Domuroku 720ml Alcohol content 16 Rice polishing ratio 70%. On the 24th, I will go to Gamagori from Kamisuwa. We will help with the harvest at an acquaintance's mandarin 🍊 field in the afternoon. Then we have a barbecue in the garage for dinner. We buy a bottle of Domuroku at Tsuruya, which we have been wanting to drink for a long time. It's a little bit sweet and smooth. It's delicious. It was gone in no time 😆.

Brewed by Endo Sake Brewery in Suzaka, Nagano Domuroku Keiryuu Activated Nama Shu Junmai This sake is new to me. When I tried it, I found it to be foul tasting (@_@). Among all the nigoris I've ever had, this is definitely the best, It is definitely the best nigori I have ever had 😋😋😋😋😋😋. It's a heaven of sludge and shuwa shuwa 😂😂. Why didn't I know about this sake? I wonder why I've lived until now without knowing about this sake 😂😂. I regret it today 😭😭😭

Keiryu - Domuroku Honjozo (Active Nigori Sake) 720ml Rice: Shirakabanishiki, etc. Rice polishing ratio 70%. Alcohol content 16 I dropped by the Tsuruya Obuse store on Sunday. There were about four varieties of Toyoga's fire-brewed sake here. But I bought a lot of sake, so I decided to enjoy them next time. However, I felt that I wanted to drink some active nigori for the first time in a long time, so I brought Domuroku with me. The next day, we opened the bottle. I like the little bites and grainy texture 😄.
