Hatsu Zenkichi ♪ test rice brewing 🌾 Kaori has a faint sweet rice aroma...sweet and delicious mouthfeel! The taste is sweet and delicious! Nagano sake is never bad! I'm drinking it with mackerel that I caught myself....and I'm drinking it with a side dish....so good....so good....so good....so good....so good....so good....

At home. Tsubu-chan chose this item for her birthday, and when she happened to find it on an expedition, she had to buy it. I got the impression that it is gradually becoming more and more popular at this sake brewery. Today, I opened the bottle. The aroma is gorgeous and fruity, with sourness and sweetness in the mouth, and a noticeable sourness in the nose. The aroma on the nose also has a noticeable acidity, and the end is a bit bitter and smooth. I would like to try it after a little time.

Zenkichi's here: ‼️ Zenkichi is delicious 😋 Sweet and tasty! I have a bottle, but I'm sure it will run out soon! It seems that the main members of the Mahjong club are on a trip to Hokkaido today: ‼️ I don't have any money, so I'll see you next time. I bet they are having a fever in Susukino 🤣.

In the second half of the all-you-can-drink session, we had a rare junmai (pure rice) drinking contest! This was also a brand that was hard to find. After all, it has been since last summer when I checked it out! It was my first time to try Zenkichi Junmai! As expected, both are THE sake! Because it was the second half of all-you-can-drink, I was not sure of the taste! Sorry 🙇. extensive knowledge Alcohol 15%. Rice / Polishing ratio Miyamanishiki, others / 70

The label has changed to a retro look. Refreshing citrusy flavor. It even has a slightly minty freshness to it The aftertaste is refreshing! It's a little different from the Zenkichi I've had in the past, but it's delicious!

Tonight was also the first issue of the series🍶 "Zenkichi". I brought this bottle without any information or preconceptions. I was looking forward to opening the bottle and starting from the aroma... The aroma is not that strong and dry 😅⁉️😅 And then a sip 🍶. It's a little dry and refreshing. This is perfect for a meal 😋. The aftertaste is also very spicy, and it disappears with a lingering aftertaste. I was curious and anxious about this bottle because it is a rarely seen brewery, and I had a lot of feelings about it.

Ikusakaya hanpukai - Shinshu's secret hanpukai Zenkichi Specs undisclosed It has a green apple-like aroma with a hint of sourness. It is light and sweet, with a touch of umami in the middle. When the first taste passes, you can taste other flavors. Well balanced.

Nakanori-san/Zenkichi. The second bottle from the Shinshu Secret Sake Hanpukai 2025 comes from Nakazen Sake Brewery. Nakanori was my personal favorite from last year's hanpukai, so how is it this year? According to the brewer's comment, it tastes great at room temperature, so we dared to drink it at room temperature. When the bottle is uncorked, it has a fresh aroma like muscat, and the mouthfeel is very round and soft. It has an elegant sweetness reminiscent of fruit, a deep flavor, and a superb balance of beautiful acidity! It has a long, happy aftertaste in the mouth. More complete than last year, this is delicious!
