This time's recommendation

Daruma Masamune (Shiraki Kosuke Shoten) was founded in 1835, the year before Ryoma Sakamoto and Atsuhime's birthdays, and has been brewing sake in Gifu for nearly 190 years since the late Edo period. The story behind why people say, ``When it comes to old sake, Daruma Masamune'' is... It all started when the sixth generation of the company tried to create ``old sake'' in order to differentiate themselves from the spread of cheap sake throughout Japan. After more than 50 years, those efforts have borne fruit. Currently, aged sake has become a mainstay product and is loved both domestically and internationally.

This time's sake
This time, we will be comparing three types of Daruma Masamune, a representative brand of Shiraki Kosuke Shoten, aged 3 years, 10 years, and 20 years.♪
●Daruma Masamune aged three years 180ml
Matured Sannen is a very delicious sake made with a well-balanced blend of several types of Daruma Masamune that have been aged for over three years.
Great for first-time drinkers and people who love alcohol as a gift. You can enjoy it chilled at room temperature, hot when it's cold, on the rocks during hot summer, or even diluted with soda and garnished with lemon.♪。
●Daruma Masamune aged 10 years 50ml
What were you doing ten years ago? Time really flies. Time passes quickly, but I try drinking 10-year-old sake while relaxing and remembering the time that has passed.
This is a book that is filled with the idea that you want your loved ones to enjoy that relaxing time as well.
●Daruma Masamune aged 20 years 50ml
This is a particularly rich type of Daruma Masamune's old sake.
The aroma is complex and deep, such as brown sugar, caramel, and maple syrup, and the taste is sweet, yet has a firm core.
By blending four types of alcoholic beverages that have been aged for over 20 years, we have brought out an extremely well-balanced taste.
Commitment to aged sake

In order for sake to age and acquire this color and flavor, it is not just a matter of taking time.
When making this sake, it is necessary to think about ``what kind of sake to make'' and ``what kind of sake brewing should be done to achieve that purpose'' based on the experience and techniques of the brewer.
This is a sake made by Kosuke Shiraki Shoten, which has been working on aged sake for half a century and has been making improvements over time.
