Genmai Special Honjozo 720ml
Rice used: Miyamanishiki
Rice polishing ratio 59
Alcohol content 15
This is a sake that I want to keep in stock at all times, and I need to replenish it with another bottle.
It has a refreshing taste, and it doesn't really choose what to serve with food, does it?
The post finally caught up with the real thing...
I'm in the 🚄 on my way home.
Now what shall I open today 🤔?
It seems that Genmai will be shipping Miyamanishiki only in the next month.
Miyamanishiki is expected to be affected by the extremely hot summer we had this year.
This will be a touchstone for the sake that will later be released with Miyamanishiki as the sake rice.
Sogapère Effice uses only Miyamanishiki as its sake rice.
We will get the list before or after the New Year's holiday.
We will decide what to do next year based on that and Miyamanishiki's performance.
Hi Kawamizuru 🌞.
Last month on my trip to Nagano, I stopped by Obuse for a tasting 🍷.
I asked the store owner and he told me that this year they are starting to prepare for sake brewing earlier than usual.
Please take care of the list 🙏.

Kawanakajima Genmai Ginjo Kinmon Nishiki
Sasuka's Ginjo-shu.
Gorgeous sweet and sour aroma like green apple 🍏.
The aroma alone is exciting😍.
Clear, soft and smooth first sip.
Stable taste even after some time 🙌.
Easy to drink with a clean aftertaste 🥰.
Next up, here's a rarely seen Gensai ✨.
I'm going to order it for you because you keep glancing at it from the fridge in the store 🤗.
The aroma is surprisingly mild.
It has a gentle sweetness and a smooth, curdless mouthfeel that makes it very easy to drink ✨✨.
It also has a delicious flavor and a clean finish 🍶🍶.
This one is also suitable for a mealtime drink because it has no peculiarities. ☺️
I love it with cheese fries on a stick!
Very well-balanced, delicate and clear ✨It was a very easy to drink sake 😊.
Kawanakajima Genmai Yamae Nishiki
After drinking Yamada-Nishiki, it's time to try Yamae-Nishiki!
The evaluation of this wine is controversial, and some people say it has a strong taste and is not like Genmai 🤔....
As soon as you pour it into a glass, you can smell the peculiar lactic acid aroma 🥹🍼.
Like a yeast yeast yeast? Like yogurt? There are nuances like vanilla and it has a scent for everyone 🤔.
I'm not sure what to expect from this one 😳.
The flavor of juicy rice is not that bad for the smell, and the umami of juicy rice comes rushing in 🌾.
The bitterness soon follows and finishes it off!
I feel like it's a bit like Genshu Mai, but the reviews are mixed, so I guess it depends on the individual 🤔...
I saw some people say it tastes better when heated, so I tried heating it up, but I prefer it chilled: ☺️
After the third day, the umami juiciness became stronger and easier to drink, so I'm very satisfied ✨.
Good evening Jay & Nobby, ☺️
Personally, I found the taste totally enjoyable ✨.
It had a unique flavor, but after a few days, the juiciness becomes more pronounced and the drink becomes easier to drink, so you can enjoy changing the taste: ☺️
Good evening ichiro18, ☺️
I finally drank it 😂.
I can't stand how juicy it is when it's been open for a while ✨
I'll have to buy and try next year's Yamae Nishiki as well 🥰.
I wanted to try a bottle of Genmai's Special Jun. I bought it at Nishinoiri Shouten when I visited Nagano in the summer 🚗.
Compared to the Omachi and Miyamanishiki junmai ginjos I have had in the past, it seems much lighter and goes down easy. Exquisite acidity and sweetness. Delicious 😋.
I'm finally starting to understand the flavor profile of Genmai: ⭕️
The photo is of the Sanada residence in Matsudai. The pine-patterned sliding doors are stylish. From these fusuma sliding doors, there are some documents underlain from the Edo period to the Meiji period (1868-1912).
These fusuma have yielded documents underwritten from the Edo period to the Meiji period. Many of them are said to be kakebari account books used by merchants in Matsudai.
We received Kawanakajima Genmai Harmonic Emotion.
This sake is a junmai daiginjo made from 35% polished Yamadanishiki and 49% polished Miyamanishiki at a ratio of 9:1 and aged at low temperature for 6 months.
Until last year, each junmai daiginjo was blended 1:1, but this year the process seems to have changed.
The sake, which is slightly amber in color after aging, has a rich, mildly sweet and umami taste with a savory, caramel and nutty mature taste.
Although the label "Nama-zake" that existed until last year is no longer displayed on the bottle, we are sure that it is Nama-zake. The sense of maturity suggests that it was at least stored fresh.
This is the first time I have had this type of sake, but it is surprisingly delicious. The flavorful taste from the raw aging process gave me a glimpse into the world of sake that I had never experienced before.
Kawanakajima Genmai Yamadanishiki
A slight aroma of alcohol and a hint of sake yeast.
The first attack has a strong sweet nuance with a strong umami of rice, but it quickly turns bitter and turns sharp.
As it reaches room temperature, the bitterness comes to the fore 😌.
It was a very delicious sake 🍶.

Rice Kinmon Nishiki
Polishing ratio 55

Clear and dry!
There is no sourness or bitterness.
There is no umami at all!
It is different from what I expected!
3.0
Kawanakajima Genmai is also jammed in the fridge 😅 Miyamanishiki is stable sweet and dry 🎵.
I need to get rid of the nama-shu jam before the new sake season in BYR7 😃.

Kiri number 600. I'm still drinking the raw sake. I like the full and mellow Yamada-Nishiki among Genshu Mai's. It is a beautiful sake both on its own and as a medium-bodied sake. It is a beautiful sake both on its own and as a food sake.

Congratulations on your 600 check-ins ✅🎊🎉, Boy Tetsu!
While the overwhelming majority of posts are about Nagano sake, Kawanakajima Genmai's draft sake is a very particular choice 😄The sake entrée looks delicious alongside the sake 😋.
Keep up the good sake life ✨!
Good evening, Mr. Tetsu Boy!
Congratulations on 600 check-ins 🎉!
I guess the milestone is sake from Nagano after all 🎵.
Genshuai's sake looks delicious 🤤!
I'd like to try it 🤤.
Let's enjoy the sake life more and more 😋!
Thank you for your comment, Hiro 😊Majority of the sake is local sake from Shinshu, so it is easy to reach a milestone 😅Let's continue to enjoy each other's sake activities 👍.
Congratulations on your 600th check-in, Mr. Boy Tetsu. This is a suitable sake for a milestone. I saw Kawanakajima Genmai junmai ginjo unfiltered. Special Junmai is another one I would like to buy if I see it.
Congratulations on your 600 check-ins✅, Mr. Tetsu Boya: ㊗️🎉!
I am always very envious of your delicious sakes 🍶 and I am always looking forward to seeing you on the site 😋.
The season of new sake is coming! I'm looking forward to it 😊.
Thank you for your comment AAJI😊.
Kawanakajima Genmai's unfiltered raw sake has Miyamanishiki, Kinmonnishiki, Tokujun no Hitokochiki, and a lot of other grains 😊 I also like Yamaneishiki, which has had mixed reviews this summer 😊.
Thank you @Mizuhashi for your comment 😊 I too am envious of your record 👍 I am drinking even more because the brewer will be sad if I don't drink the sake I have on hand before the new sake starts 😃.
Good morning, Tetsu Boy 😃.
I knew it from Shinshu sake 🍶! Congrats on your 600 check-in at Genmai ㊗️㊗️㊗️㊗️㊗️㊗️ 🎉Drinking with this kind of entrée is the best 🤗.
Congratulations on your belated 600 check-in, Tetsu Boya! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I envy you not only this sake, but also many other delicious sake before and after: ‼️ I'm jealous that you have so much Shinshu sake 😊.
Hello, boy Tetsu 😃.
Congratulations on your 600 check-ins 🎉.
I got the impression that Genmai's raw sake was interesting and complex in taste ✨I hope you continue to enjoy a good sake life 🍶.
12/20
At first I was going to give it a higher score, but after a few more drinks I lost a little interest. I don't like this ginjo aroma, but it tastes good. It lingers a bit and isn't bad. Not my favorite, but a nice sake.
