Obon drinking!
To drink with relatives back home,
I chose these 3 bottles this year.
All are Nagano sake 🍶.
Daishinshu Super Dry Junmai Ginjo
Kame no Kai Yellow Label Junmai Ginjo
Kawanakajima Genmai
Harmonic Emotion
Junmai Daiginjo
This is Kawanakajima Genmai.
As usual, it is a Genmai HE.
It has a rich flavor and a slight acidity this year.
It went well with spare ribs.
Purchase price ¥2970（720ml)
Today's dinner was a very special kaiseki course 🎵.
There was a bottle of Kawanakajima Genmai that I had never had before, so I ordered it!
It has a refreshing, slightly sharp taste that is summery and easy to pair with a meal.
★★★★
Special Honjozo with this great taste: ❣️
It's clean but has a delicious flavor: ☺️
The aftertaste is also pleasant💕
I want to drink this kind of sake 🍶 for everyday drinking🥹✨.
Thank you, D Paisen: ❤️
The manager asked me if I had had this blue-green Genmai.
I remember drinking it in Hakodate the other day.
I looked up "Sake-no-wa".
I knew I had!
The comments were exquisite and subtle!
The liquor store told me that the air conditioning in the brewery had broken down and the taste was not as good as they had hoped!
No, no, no, I understood that this was a new type of Genmai as it was not twisted!
So I will have it freshly opened again!
Let's compare two types of sake: one to drink as it is, and the other to drink with carbonated water.
It's an unusual sake when drunk as it is.
When it is mixed with carbonated water, the peculiarity disappears and it tastes surprisingly good!
You can taste the bitterness rather than the sourness as it goes down your throat.
We are looking forward to seeing how it will taste next year!
There are pros and cons, but I will keep it in my memory and record as it is a rare sake!

Genmai Ginjo
This is my first time to drink Genmai.
Ginjo
It is a sake like the surface of quiet water.
There is almost no sourness, bitterness, or other unpleasant tastes.
Slightly umami
and sweetness of cotton candy.
It is too elegant.
There are times when you want a drink like this
I'm sure there are times when you want a drink like this.
The second bottle of Genmai. The first "Yamae Nishiki" is rich with a soft, delicious sweetness. I had it with horse mackerel and Chinu sashimi when my son came home for his summer vacation. I bought it at the same time as Haneya's summer sake, which I haven't had in a while, because I could buy it at the regular price if I bought the summer sake designated by the liquor store. I have high expectations for this one as well.
Long time no see Phantom Dance Emotional Harmony 😆.
I was too sick to open it for a while 😂.
The aroma is mild but delicious from the outset!
Fruity, mellow sweetness and aroma with a silky, thick texture😍.
The sweetness fills your mouth and then it comes together nicely and goes down the back of your throat... it finishes nicely leaving a lingering aftertaste of another sip.
While I was drinking it with this thought in mind, someone drank it on their own! I was drinking so much that I thought 😱.
See you next year ✨
Hi Yasusake 😃
I'm drooling just hearing about this fruity mellow like silk thickening 🤤It means the sake is so good that you forget you drank it 🤩.
I'm jealous of Genshu Mai because it's so rare to find it 😍.
This stock was purchased in the spring. This Genmai has been buried in the store and it has been a year and a half since it was manufactured.
The last time I drank it, it seemed dry, probably because it was still new, but this one has turned into something else 🤨.
Above all, it is mellow and sweet. It is rich and mellow. I didn't know it could change so much when unfiltered raw is put down. I can't feel the so called "aged aroma", but I am surprised.
But it is still delicious 😋.
Good morning, ellie 😃
I can't believe Gensai-san is buried without being sold 😳It's a medium liquor store 😅But it's quintessential Gensai-san that it matures and becomes mellow! I wonder if it is 😄🙃.
Hi Jay & Novi😃
I don't know if this repo is accurate, but of course it's not a bad change.
I believe you lived in this area, but the liquor store is Nishinoiri Shoten in Togura Onsen ❗️
