Mikotsuru純米吟醸 諏訪美山錦 無濾過生原酒 樽詰め限定純米吟醸原酒生酒無濾過

At a tasting at Mikotsuru Brewery. Brewed with sake rice grown in the Suwa region, it is extremely delicious with an aroma, mellow sweetness, and sharp aftertaste. We purchased a bottle to take home. The sake is only available in casks, but it is said that the sake in casks varies depending on the time of year, so each time you visit, you may find a different sake, or sometimes the same sake as the last time.

I tasted the sake at Mikotsuru's brewery and chose this junmai ginjo from among those that were all delicious. I thought it would need to be chilled since it is a ginjo, but it was delicious lukewarm as well. It has a robust mouthfeel.

Purchased in Shimosuwa-machi, Nagano, Japan, and planned to drink it on the train on the way home, but a fire along the train line caused a major delay. While waiting for the train, I drank it in the station waiting room to kill time. It tastes like a cup of sake. It is good for a light drink with rice crackers.

Purchased on a trip. Firm flavor and sharpness. Slightly effervescent on the palate? It had a slight bubbling at the beginning, but after that there was no bubbling. It is said to be made from 100% Nagano sake rice Hitogokochi.

Fourth glass at a tavern on my trip. Delicious, with a mellow aroma and flavor spreading! This may have been tasted at the Mikotsuru brewery last year. It also responds well to a solid entrée of Shinshu pork seared with miso.

The third drink at the izakaya (Japanese-style pub) where we were traveling. The fragrant aroma spreads to the palate and also passes through to the nose. It has a robust flavor unique to the original sake.

The first drink of the trip. The sake is yellowish and viscous, but the main taste is sour and refreshing in summer.

The second drink at the izakaya (Japanese style bar) I was taken to. I have not seen many sake from Tokushima Prefecture, so I chose this one for its novelty. I remember it was dry but easy to drink.

At an izakaya (Japanese-style bar) where I was taken. This ayu masamune is not widely distributed, and this was the first time I had ever seen it. It has a robust flavor of junmai sake, but it is not harsh and easy to drink.

Refreshing and fruity taste. And a clean aftertaste. Delicious. The name "Comet" is said to come from a sake rice called "Comet" produced in Hokkaido.

The second of the three types of sake (pictured right) is the yellowest of the three, but surprisingly it is not too strong and is easy to drink. This sake is also easy to drink.

The first of three sake tasting (photo left). I never thought I would be able to drink sake from a brewery in Nemuro, Hokkaido, far away from here. It is a so-called "normal sake," but it is easy to drink, viscous, and good as a food sake.

I purchased this bottle without hesitation at Imanishi Shuzo in Nara, as it was a sake sold only during Golden Week. It has a refreshing taste with acidity. But it also has a robust flavor unique to unfiltered, unpasteurized sake. Delicious. I probably should have bought more.

This is the first time I've tasted "Happiness for Life". It is light and easy to drink on the palate, but has a strong Junmai Daiginjo aftertaste. We hope that the hot summer will be a safe one as well, in honor of the happiness of its name and its storage in a snow cellar.
