I went to Kinonene CAMP.
Seven sake pairings!
The second item was a Junmai Kinonene.
As the name suggests, it is gentle and easy to drink.
With vegetables from Sakura. Delicious!

I thought I was sensing a robust flavor and when I looked at the back, it was ice cold aged Koshi...
So that's why I got that impression too 🙄.
Still, I enjoyed it in my usual Kouji style, gulping it down 😋.
I've never had a bad experience with this brand, so in my opinion, it's a brand I can drink with peace of mind 🥰.
With my favorite albacore tempura ✨.
Blissful moment ‼️😆
The moment I took a sip, I was like, "Oh, this is good!
I bought the label at a store in Saitama, and I was convinced that it was made by a sake brewery in Koshi. According to the label on the back, it is a special sake, pressed for the first time.
The absolute freshness amplifies the other elements: umami, sweetness, aroma... and the lingering bitterness and sharpness. It is indeed a luxurious bottle.

Microcarbonate🫧.
The waitress started her magic show 🎉 saying "even if you tighten it, the line comes out 🥳.
It really does pull out😲.
You have to hold it down with duct tape 🤣.
When you taste it, it has a slight sweetness & umami, and a little bitterness at the end.
It has a stoic umami and a dry taste with less sweetness.
The ginjo aroma on the nose is wonderful and very satisfying. ⤴️
Alcohol content: 16
Gohyakumangoku, Yamadanishiki
Rice polishing ratio: 58
The taste is gassy with a predominant acidity and almost no sweetness.
It is a dry sake with a slight bitterness in the aftertaste.
I've been camping & eating paired food at a sake brewery in Kinonene!
I've been wanting to go to Kinonene CAMP ever since I found it.

I was super happy to be able to drink a total of 7 different kinds of sake.
Zenna paired with Daiginjo.
It was gentle and soft. I've always had a bit of a weakness for brewed alcohol, but this one was easy to drink and delicious.
On the way back from sightseeing at Sakura Castle ruins, we visited a sake brewery in Sakurai. It was my first time to try Chiba sake. There is a campsite attached to the brewery, so it might be the best place to spend the night drinking 😁.
The taste of the sake is to my liking, with a fizz and lactic acidity that I haven't had in a while. It's dry with a foamy, acidic and clean aftertaste. This is delicious 😋 I realized again that it is possible to make good sake even with a low degree of rice polishing.

It's been a while since I've been on the corner ‼️
I knew I'd start with Koshi ☝️
I can only hope for the best when it's a light nigori sake straight from the kettle💓
The sweetness is moderate and the mouthfeel is just right 😋.
The light nigori gives it a moderate mellow flavor, making it twice as delicious 😋😋.
Koshi has a nice aroma after all.
Good morning, Jay & Nobby 😆.
As the name suggests, it's a scent HANAYAKA ‼️
I think I've developed a tolerance for sweetness lately 🤔.
Besides, I was a taste tester on this day 🤣 black.
I can't guess 😅
I received this year from a friend: 🙇♂️
When you open the bottle, the sweet and fruity aroma wafts through the air as usual〰︎🎶
The standing aroma is of malted rice, ripe apples, pineapples, pears, etc. 🍎🍍🍐.
Slightly effervescent on the palate, fresh, fruity, lactic soda🫧🫧.
The second half has a strong pungency. ⚡️
Somewhat modern, but rather orthodox and classic ❔.
It also has a strong sake feel 🍶.
Just my opinion 🤔.
It's more like the cool, cool feeling of dawn that I had been feeling until now.
I had an impression of friendliness and charm this time rather than the cool dawn coolness I had felt so far 😊.
