The difference in flavor between a quick drink and one that rolls around in your mouth is amazing and wonderful!
With the sky after the rain
The name is great, too, isn't it?
5 minutes to open the bottle.
Refreshing with a strong gassy sensation.
Aroma: banana? Pear? Fruity aroma.
Sweetness, acidity, and bitterness are well balanced.
4.5/5
The store owner attacked me and I was well on my way to buying it (I was forced into a full count and struck out).
It was recommended first and served at the end of the tasting and I caved.
I drink it room temperature, and it has a tingling tongue sensation with a bitter acidity. After that, it firmly asserts itself as a trendy, aromatic sake.
(When cooled (as was the case when I tasted it), the sweetness comes out and the sake goes down your throat easily.

Nakanori-san, there was only one bite, so this gold
It's rather similar to the Nakanori-san I just had.
This one is a little more refreshing and less sweet.
Yamae-nishiki is never a miss, so it's very tasty!
Not too clear, but good with a slight tangy flavor.
Delicious!
Active nigori is perfect for this hot season!
It is served with chilled chuka.
Made with Miyamanishiki produced in Suwa.
The aroma is fresh and citrusy
Taste like cream soda.
It is silky and has a strong shwashiness. Sweet and sour and very tasty.
It is surprisingly tangy afterwards and you will never get tired of drinking it. ✨️
The aroma of Miyamanishiki's Honkin is very satisfying.

The bottle was opened in February. White gas wavering in the mouth. This aroma is irresistible!
It is light, shwashy, and very tasty.
I think the active nigori of Biseong has been on the shelves since yesterday...
How shall we get it 😭
Honkin, brewed entirely with ingredients produced in Suwa, is said to be the first draft to be released in three years.
The aroma is quite acidic.
When you taste it, it is chili, juicy, rich, and acidic. It is very delicious.
The next day, the chile-chile flavor subsides a bit, and the taste becomes richer. It has a soft sweetness and richness, a light flavor and acidity, and a clean mouthfeel. You can drink as many glasses as you want.
After a few days, the sweetness and bitterness gradually increase, and the full-bodied astringency is felt slowly, and the beautiful acidity tightens things up.
It was a highly satisfying sake that was both light and rich.
Hi Jay & Nobby, ☀️
This Honkin✨ was so delicious ‼️ I think you two would love it as you said 🥰I hope you will take it home and enjoy it if you see it 😙🎉.
Honkin Junmai Yamae Nishiki Unfiltered Namaeshu 720ml
Rice used: Yamae-Nishiki produced in Nagano Prefecture
Rice polishing: 59
Alcohol content: 15%.
I was not sure which to open the bottle first, this or Biseong, but I opened this one.
The light acidity tightens the flavor. We paired it with simmered taro, butcher's croquettes and menchikatsu. It is a great match for meat dishes.
Thursday was a beautiful day, so I teleworked and worked in the field before work started.
I planted taro. Today, the weather looks good again, so I'm going to plant tomatoes and water eggplants 🍅🍆.
Not much aroma.
Taste similar to the previous one.
The acidity is a bit sharp and greef-like.
Melon-like chemical alcohol when swallowed.
When lukewarm, it tastes a bit oaky.
A perfect food sake that goes well with meals.
I think the owner of this restaurant is too excited,
But it is a good place to eat delicious grilled fish and vegetables.
