I got this series today near Zenkoji temple in Nagano where I was traveling🍶🤤.
I heard they also have Genmai if the timing is right 😮.
It looked like it would be good during dinner, so I had some yakitori at home 🤤.
It has a mild taste and goes well with yakitori and a pile of shichimi (seven spices) 🥰🎆.
I recommend it 🤤🥰🎆.

Nagano Business Trip Part ㉜
I was back in Ishikawa over the weekend and had some Kawanakajima Genmai that I bought in Ueda ✨😀😀.
The aroma is an elegant fruit ginjo aroma😊The mouthfeel is soft, with a gentle sweetness and rice flavor on the palate🥰🥰The finish is mildly sweet and sour with a lingering finish 😚👍It was a delicious Genmai after all😍💕.
The fourth picture is of Lake Suwa on Saturday morning 📸. The weather was great and we had a great view of Lake Suwa 🤩It was a consecutive holiday and there were many people at Suwako SA from the morning 😳It was the beginning of a 5 hour journey home to Ishikawa Prefecture 🤣.
Good evening, Maechen 😃.
It must be hard to live in a tourist area for consecutive holidays 💦Long trip 🚙Thanks for your hard work 😌Please get yourself in good shape with Genmai-san!
Maechen, good evening😄.
Thanks for your time 🚙😌Tourist attractions can get crowded💦.
You took a good picture of Lake Suwa 📸👍.

Good evening, Mr. WOM 🌃😀
Nagano business trip is coming to an end😇Work is gradually getting harder😰Drinking some good sake will refresh me🥰I hope it will motivate me from Monday🥳.
Jay & Nobby, good evening 🌃😀 😀
The highway near Suwa is under construction right now and there is heavy traffic on the highway and down the road😫and it's a tourist attraction + consecutive holidays😵I just came back to Suwa🫡It's been 6 hours back😭🤣😭I'm going to drink some alcohol and sleep now😴.
Good evening, Tsubu-chan 🌃😀
It was very crowded near Suwa 🚗 because of the consecutive holidays 😵💫 and we couldn't get in all of them, but the weather was good and we were able to take beautiful pictures of Lake Suwa 😚👍Genmai's HE was the first time I drank it and it was a delicious drink ✨🥳.

We were asked to make a sake that goes well with snacks...! This is the sake we were served in response to our reckless request for a sake that goes well with snacks.
I got the impression that it went well with fried salami with sesame oil!
The other day, an 8-man senior soccer tournament was held in my hometown ⚽⚽It is an annual event to enjoy soccer and then enjoy Hanasaki Crab, King Crab, Akinata Fish, Hokkai Striped Shrimp and sake ❗Well, the main thing is drinking 🍻This time, a team from Sapporo in the central Hokkaido area participated ❗It was a lot of work to set up and clean up, but it went well 😊. The main thing is to drink ❗Well, the main thing is to drink ❗Well, the main thing is to drink 🍻This time we had a team from Sapporo in the central Hokkaido area ❗Preparation and cleanup was hard but we are glad it went well 😊.
I brought Kawanakajima which Choroki-san gave me and sipped it by myself 😁It has good balance and sharpness and goes well with meat and seafood 🎵.
Thank you Choroki-san 🙇🙇.
I felt I am not good enough for soccer because there were players in their 80's hustling 😲.
Good morning, Mr. King of Noodles and Sake😃⚽️It's a great event like a collaboration between soccer and Autumnfest ✨The drinks with good snacks are also very special 🦀.
Hi Noodle King 😃
I remember you raised this tournament here last year 😊The players in their 80's are awesome 😳I bet ⚽️🦀🍤🐟🍶 must be great after the workout 😚.
Good evening, Takku0103 😃.
I'm sure you know well 🎵Takkku, the crabs and the fish in Nemuro are the best ✨! Our ancestors came up with a good event 🎵Takkku you know very well that the crabs and autumn fish in Nemuro are the best ✨.
Good evening Jay & Nobby 😃.
It's a good excuse to drink sake now that it's an annual event 😅Beer is prepared but sake is still the best for this food 😆In the past there have been players in their 90's 😲.
Good evening, Choroki!
Thank you so much 🙇It was a perfect match for the fall flavors of the east of Hokkaido, such as crab, autumn fish and shrimp 😋 It is wonderful that Nagano sake from a prefecture without a sea can collaborate with the sea flavors of Hokkaido ✨.
Hello Mr. Noodle Sake King â
The dry Kawanakajima seems to go well with seafood 💡.
But I'm still jealous of your crab pictures, they look so delicious 🦀.

Nagano business trip (No. 19)
I bought this around June at a liquor store in Matsumoto City 😀 This store also has a great selection of Nagano Sake ✨Genmai was on the shelf 😊.
The aroma is sweet with a hint of melon 🍈😊The palate has a beautiful rice flavor and a firm richness 😋It finishes nicely with a gentle acidity 😍.
The fourth one was at Kusabue, which I had a second chance to visit before returning home 😚✌️ I wrote my name and was seated in about 10 minutes😇I ordered vegetable tempura zaru + walnut sauce + han-ten ✋The amount of soba was more than I expected and I was in a hurry, but I finished it deliciously 😋✌️
Good evening, Maechen 😃.
Kamerei and Genmai! I envy you the environment where you can usually buy them at breweries and liquor stores 🥹and even more delicious soba noodles😙 irresistible 😋.
Jay & Nobby, good morning ☀️😀
I knew you'd be in the right place 😊I can usually find sake that I can't find in my hometown 😆Lots of sake and soba noodles, you're having a good weekend 😍.
Hello Maechen 😃
Genso Mai looks delicious 😄.
Also, congratulations on your long-awaited visit to Kusabue-san 🍾.
I'll visit again when it's a little cooler 😃.
@Mizuhashi, good evening 🌃😀
I was able to sneak into Kusabue as I had hoped ✌️Genmai has been a great help to Mr. Okubo since he came to Ueda😊Working in Ueda until the end of this month😢I'll try my best to enjoy it 🔥💪.
Maecin-san, also here â
Congrats on sneaking into Kusabue 😆🎉!
The volume of the soba is amazing 😳I asked for a large serving of Dora-chan's soba, but she said a medium serving would be fine 🤣I'm addicted to the walnut sauce 😘.
Good evening, Tsubu 🌃😀.
Thank you too 😚 look at the soba noodles from the side 👀✨ they are quite smoky 🗻😇 the bellybread with the soba made me very happy 😍💕.
It has a gorgeous fruity aroma and a sweet, shwashy mouthfeel. It is a bouncy sake.
This is amazing. I am really surprised.
It was hard to open the bottle slowly, but I drank it without spilling a drop.

The sweetness drags a bit on the palate.
After the second day, the acidity tightens it up nicely and you can taste the well-balanced flavor.
