I like it cold.
It's great to open the bottle cold as it is.
The sense of maturity is moderate and easy to drink.
It is a little matured, but it is fresh and delicious!

It is not flashy, modern, or elegant, but the taste is full, mild, and pleasant, and it is a delicious sake with good cost performance.
By the way, from Friday to Saturday, I participated in the Shinshu Kamerei🐢 Hexagon Festival.
The day before the festival, I went to the brewery's store to get a bottle of the new Yamae-Nishiki sake, which is limited to the brewery's store.
The next day, we lined up from 4:00 a.m. and numbered tickets were distributed around 8:00 a.m. It was cold, we were sleepy, and exhausted. It was cold, I was sleepy and exhausted, and I was surrounded by a lot of perverts😅At 6:00am, there were about 200 people in line. There was an announcement that Hexagon would also release the Golden Turtle when it ran out, so there might have been even more people participating in the event.
However, order was maintained and there were no people waiting in cars just to get a spot. On the day of the event, it was pouring until 3:00 in the morning, but the only relief was that it stopped raining before 4:00.
The people in front of us said that the rice terrace and Mari label had never escalated to this level.
I'm still tired😅😓.
Hi, Matsuchiyo 😃.
Yes, I was caught off guard when no one was lined up around 9pm 😅.
It seems there were a lot of people who went straight from work on Friday.
I'm glad you were at Kinkame, but which one do you want? I'm going to go with Hexagon😅.
Good evening, @Mizuhashi😄
Oh, I see you were at 〰︎‼️ too 😆.
Actually...I was there too 🤣 and of course I got Hexagon ✨!
And of course we got Hexagon✨😁✌️It was so cold at dawn 〰︎🥶.
Good morning, Tsubu!
It was really cold 😵I went to buy a warm drink 😨.
I was in front of the Sedo family 😃.
I was nervous 😅I estimated that I was just under 80, but the number was surprisingly young: ✌️

I bought a sake cup at the autumn Kiso lacquerware festival last month, so tonight I'm serving Kiso sake in Kiso lacquerware!
The Kiso lacquerware sake cups are different from the ones I bought before, and they are quite good looking!
I looked in many stores on the street, but there were almost no stores that had a good kataguchi, so I had a hard time finding one.
The sake I chose was Zenkichi!
It is not from Shiojiri, where Kiso Hirasawa is located, but from Kiso Fukushima, where Nakanori-san is located!
It has a refreshing acidity with a clean mouthfeel!
The soft and smooth flavor and sweetness that is typical of Yamae-Nishiki lingers softly!
It is an intensely delicious sake that goes well with lacquerware!
Sweet! Easy to drink with a clean aftertaste,
It's easy to drink, and if you drink it on the rocks with a little water, you can gobble it up!
I have never bought this brewery before, so I bought this set to compare.

Yes, Nagano business trip! The night of ✍️
Last 4 glasses of Kiso sake 🍶.
Yes, I drank it as soon as I arrived in Nagano!
I drank a summer sake from "Zenkichi series" of Nakazen Shuzo, famous for "Nakanori-san"!
The summer sake of the "Zenkichi series" of Nakazen Shuzo, famous for the "Nakanori-san"! This is a limited distribution product!
The name is "Zenkichi"!
Zenkichi Junmai Ginjo 13 thirteen
We've gone for it 🍶🍶🍶!
...but the end was a little bit
It wasn't what I was expecting 😅😅
I was like "Oh my god, Nakanori-san is sooooo spicy!
So I went with that tension.
So I went with that tension.
It was sweet and tasty, yes, the aroma is good ☺️ lol
It's not that it's not refreshing, but...!
It's still sharp and has a nice aroma.
I guess I'm a fan of smooth aftertaste.
The bottle they gave me as a chaser is too cute!
I wanted to buy a cup just for this bottle.
Shinshu Inamachi Alps Restaurant
I'm so impressed that all the 🍶 I drank was within the all-you-can-drink range.
I've already had a bottle of Akahoshi 🍺 and one cup (half a cup) for 600 yen 🍶.
I've already had one bottle of Akasei 🍺 and one drink (half a half cup) for 600 yen 🍶 four times, which is enough for 2499 yen for 120 minutes.
but this time it was 90 minutes.
That's ¥1999, right? Are you okay with that? LOL!
And besides the Shinshu Oden
I ordered a lot of local delicacies from Shinshu.
It didn't cost more than 5,000 yen per person!
It was a great Ina City night ✨⭐️ lol
Nagano
Special Junmai
Polishing ratio 59
Alcohol 16%.
Rice: 100% Miyamanishiki produced in Nagano Prefecture
This is a rare sake from the Nakazen Sake Brewery of "Nakanori-san".
It is not sold locally and is purchased at a partner store.
It has a fresh apple flavor, like a cider.
It is very tasty with a good flavor on top.
It has a slightly floral aroma, hiyaoroshi, and the depth and softness of rice unique to Zenkichi. A product with a well-balanced taste and good sharpness.
Nagano Purchased at a liquor store
Another bottle opened today🍶!
This one was supposed to be drunk on a family trip to Nagano 🍶!
Yamaye Nishiki is made from our own rice 🌾As a Nagano sake lover, I can't help but be attracted by this word 😋.
Somehow I think I often see the number 59 in Nagano's sake 🤔.
I wonder if it has something to do with it?
I immediately opened the bottle 🍶 It's delicious 😋.
The juicy sweetness and moderate acidity are very delicious 🤤The balance between the flavor and drinkability is just right, fruity yet easy to drink 😁.
Zenkichi is not only delicious, but all of them have a stable taste image 🤔.
It was delicious again!
Thank you so much for the food...
It has sweetness, soft acidity, and a tightly packed flavor.
The aroma is not spectacular, but there is a slight freshness on the nose.
Taste to your liking
Today's dinner. I went to my usual restaurant, Kisoba. The last time I stopped by, the restaurant was full and I couldn't get in, so I made a reservation. Zenkichi Hiyoshi Oroshi" (Hiyashi Oroshi) is a very good sake. It's a great sake.
