The second drink at Seasonal Cuisine Saisai was a drink you just had to have! This is the first time to drink at Horie Sake Brewery's Kinjaku!
This time, it's autumnal sake!
We did it - we bought another label at the brewery, and now it's finally the Golden Chun Chun we've been longing for!
Let's have it right away!
First, the aroma. It smells fresh, doesn't it?
When you put it in your mouth, it has a smooth mouthfeel.
It is already delicious, with a sweetness and a slight sourness that is refreshing.
The lingering bitterness and umami are also blissful~!
The impression is that it is richer than it is rich, and it is a delicious sake!
My wife was also pleased with the taste!

Good morning, ma-ki-😃.

Almost across the prefecture in terms of route 😄.
Congrats on meeting Kinjaku 🎉.
The liquor store I was dealing with is closed, so I have to go to the warehouse too 💦.

Good morning, ma-ki-chan 😃!
I think Aya was a candidate for the banquet when we stayed in Iwakuni 🤔It looks like a nice restaurant 😊The Chun x2 looks like a bottle of ‼️ that I wanted to drink at that time 😋.

Thank you, soumacho!
It was a long drive, but we had a lot of good weather, so it was a fun drive 🚗.
It's sad to hear that Kinjaku's store is closing 💦.
Please take this opportunity to enjoy your visit to the warehouse 🤗.

Looking forward to your review 🤗

Thank you Kano!
I don't know where I would have been able to drink if not for this trip to Kinjaku, but thanks to Sake no Wa, I was able to enjoy my sake life at its best 😁✨✨.
Kano-san, how about a trip to Yamaguchi 🤗?

Thank you, Jay & Nobby!
You two were also on a trip to the China region two years ago now 🚆.
We didn't feel free to talk to the restaurant staff, but all the food was really good and delicious 😋.

Kinjaku, Flying
This is a really precious bottle too, and we are happy to receive it: ☺️
Comment from the brewer
This Junmai Daiginjo is made by carefully polishing the finest Yamadanishiki and brewing it with clear spring water from the headwaters of the Nishiki River. After slow fermentation at a low temperature, the sake is hung in a sake bag and only the natural drops are collected.
When I drank it myself, it stood out for its clarity and gorgeousness without any cloying flavors, and I could feel the elegant sweetness that is typical of Kinjaku. It was a taste worthy of the name "Hisho" (flight), and suitable for a special occasion 🍶✨.

Good evening, Choro!
I envy you for enjoying various rare drinks 🤤.
And the review of Kinjaku looks delicious 🤤!
I'm on a trip to Yamaguchi right now and one of my goals is to have some Kinjaku 🎵 just kidding 🤗.

This is the Golden Chun Chun 🐤 that I had on hand during the summer season.
It has a stable pineapple aroma and taste ☺️ light and easy to drink 😊I should have drank it in the summer 😅The sweetness is weaker than the autumn rise and has a sourness that is typical of the raw yeast. The bitterness comes more firmly as the days go by.

Good evening, Mr. Studying!
You went to Golden Chun Chun again 🎵.
I tend to save my sake for the season, but I guess seasonal sake goes well with the season 😁✨.
I suddenly want to drink some chun chun 😋!

Good morning, ma-ki-, drinking according to the season is also a necessary part of being an adult. I am fighting against the ghost of waste, but I would like to drink as soon as possible.

Pale yellow in color. The aroma is beautiful, like ripe pineapple. When you drink it, the mouthfeel soaks in easily, and the acidity and bitterness are moderate, so it does not seem too much like Yamahai. It is a sake that allows you to enjoy its beautiful, mellow, fruit-like sweetness. I preferred it served cold or chilled rather than heated.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Purchased at Yamatoya Shuho.
I opened a bottle because I had a celebration and no champagne or other good sake. It had been stored at 0 degrees for 2.5 years in my cellar at home, for reference.
I thought Jungin and Shiboritate would be easier to understand as the charm of Kinjaku, but I had the impression that I did not come across Jungin very often before it was talked about on SNS. Daiginjo and Hisho are sometimes sold at regular prices outside of liquor stores.
In my area, Tobi-Roki is Jun-Dai>>Kuro-label Jun-Gin>>(wall of restaurants and storefront sales)>>Toku-Jun, and there is too much difference in difficulty of availability among brands for the end-user individual consumer 😪.

Golden Chun Chun 🐧.
Junmai Ginjo Nama was "sweet! but I like the sourness that comes out after autumn 😁.
Japanese>English
勉強中
I know it's good based on Sake-no-wa's review, but my expectations are high. On the first day, the sweetness comes first, and the sharpness is weak, like an aged raw sake. The aroma is melon-like, with hints of pineapple. It comes on slowly, but has a light sweetness and umami. The sweetness is a little strong. After the second day, it becomes sharp and well-balanced. It is really delicious 😋.

Good evening, ma-ki-san. ☺️ I think Yamaguchi has a great selection of sake, but my favorite right now is Golden Chun Chun. I would like you to make a plan. I hope you can buy it if you ask for it like Yasube did 😁.

Good evening ichiro18😃I see you bought it from the same liquor store 😅I'm relieved to hear the same feedback 😅I agree with you 😮💨 Anyway, it's easy to drink and tastes great, which explains its popularity 😁.

The last one is a comparison of Kinjaku Daiginjo (the two on the left) and Junmai Daiginjo (the two on the right): 🐦️
The top aroma is soft and sweet in both cases.
By this point, I was too drunk to understand the subtle differences.
In the mouth, the Daiginjo has a mildly sweet flavor with a clean finish.
The Junmai Daiginjo is extremely mildly sweet and delicious.
It is indeed a 40% polished Junmai Daiginjo.
The Daiginjyo had a clean aftertaste, perhaps due to the fact that it was alkalooseted.
You have to look at the label on the back of the bottle to see that it is aluzoe, though.
It was delicious 🍶✨️

The fifth drink (two on the left) and sixth drink (two on the right) are a comparison of Kinjaku's autumn rise 2024 and 2025: 🐦️
The top aroma is sweet with a hint of acidity in both.
Maybe it's because I'm drunk, but I don't notice much difference in the aroma.
In the mouth, both have a mildly sweet flavor, but the 2024 has more depth and is more delicious.
If you have ever had Kinjaku, you would know that it has a light taste with a good response, so even though it is an Aki-agari, you don't feel it's too heavy.
It was delicious 🍶✨️

The fourth cup was Kinjaku's Lore Yamahai Zozo.
The top aroma is slightly sweet.
In the mouth, it has a mild sweetness with a hint of acidity.
Compared to the other Kinjaku, this one had a richer flavor and the sweetness was the best.
This Yamahai was highly rated among the participants at the drinking comparison event.
It was delicious. ✨️🐦️

The third cup is Kinjaku's Secret Hidden Nama Hashiro.
The first aroma is sweet with a hint of pineapple candy.
In the mouth, there is a soft acidity from the sake yeast and sweetness from the pineapple candy.
It has a rich and mellow taste as well as the Yamahai which we will drink next among the Kinjaku.
It was delicious 🍶✨️

The second glass is Kinjaku Junmai Ginjo 50 🐦️
The first aroma is slightly sweet.
When you put it in your mouth, you can feel a slight gasiness.
Clear sweetness with a hint of acidity.
The pineapple flavor is a little weak.
It was delicious 🍶✨️

I know this is back to back, but the weekend before last, I participated in a Kinjaku 8-sake drinking contest 😊.
We started with Kinjaku's only raw sake.
The first aroma is slightly sweet.
When you put it in your mouth, you can feel a slight gasiness.
It has a slight sweetness and sourness like light pineapple candy.
The balance between the refreshing sweetness and sourness is exquisite.
I could understand why it is so popular.
After drinking all 8 kinds of sake, I checked this one last time to make sure it was the best one 🍶✨️😊.
