Saseki is the tasting room for Masuda Shuzo sake brewery in Toyama. We have been honored to have the Fifth-generation Masuda introduce us to a number of sakes in his portfolio together with aged sake, nigori cloudy sake, and nama unpasteurized sake. The sakes are well-balanced and food-friendly. The tasting room has sake-friendly small bites together with dried hotaru ika firefly squid and dried shiro ebi glass shrimp – each native delicacies harvested from Toyama Bay.
We sampled barrel aged nihonshu in addition to Hyperlink 8. Hyperlink 8 is a collaboration between Chivas Regal and Masuizumi. Sake is aged for ten months in Scotch whisky casks from @ChivasRegal. The space between Masuda Shuzo sake brewery and Chivas Regal in Toyama is 8,888 km – therefore the identify Hyperlink 8.
Saseki may be reached by tram from Toyama Station. I imagine the native cease is Higashi Iwase. We traveled by automobile however after I return I’ll take native transportation. Toyama is on the best way to Kanazawa. It’s a straightforward cease in case you’re in search of a neighborhood spot to go to earlier than going to Kanazawa.
I’m nonetheless humbled and honored to have this time Masuda san. He is an excellent ambassador for his sake, but in addition for Toyama metropolis and the Iwase space the place his brewery is and the various companies in his space.
