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 🤣.

Sakai Branch BBQ6 Sake I brought (2) Sake I bought at a liquor store on the way to Wakata-san's house. Low alcohol Zenkichi. It's refreshing and not like the usual Zenkichi. I haven't drank that many 😅 Sweet and sour It's also good for a quick drink, but I think I prefer the usual Zenkichi which has a strong umami 🤔.

Nagano Sake Festival (7) Today's sake is the April hanpukai sake, Zenkichi-san 😇 I hear it is distributed locally under the brand name Nakanori-san 😀. The moment you open the bottle, a delicious fruity aroma spreads 😀. The delicious sweet and tasty flavor spread in the mouth along with the aroma, and it was the perfect sake for our family who loves sweet and tasty fruity sake😇. Zenkichi is available at the liquor store I often go to, but I never had a chance to try it, so I would definitely like to try their regular sake next time 😇. My family gave it a score of 14 out of 15, which is almost as high as Mannen's 😇.

Good evening, Yasbaye 🌛Zenkichi, I never picked it up after looking at it sideways 😅It's sweet delicious fruity ✨I'll have to take the opportunity to bring it to you 🤤.

Hi Nao888 😀 I don't know what level Zenkichi's sake is normally at, but I thought it was worth a try 😇

Good evening, Yasbay! That's the hanpukai! I've never seen this label before 😊I haven't had Zenkichi-san or Nakanori-san for a long time 😅I was at Kadoya-san the other day and I passed on the sake that is only available here 💦.

Good evening, Pon 😀 This hanpukai is not a commercial sake, so the labels are different and fresh😇. Kadoya-san has many other attractive sakes, so I can't expand my scope to Zenkichi-san 🤣.

I decided to try a dry sake and the master recommended this one 🍶. The palate is calm and not sweet, with a slight pineapple fruity aroma 🍍 Overall, I thought it was refreshing, dry but not too alcoholic, and a bit of a food drink that you can easily enjoy 👀. I still don't prefer dry sake, but it was one that made me think that dry sake is not so bad. ☺️

Hi Jay & Nobby 🌞. I haven't had the courage to buy a dry four-pack yet, but I'll get used to it by drinking outside 🤔. I have finally entered the world of dry sake! It's good that you don't get tired of drinking unlike sweet sake: ☺️

Kiso Fukushima Sake I remember tasting and buying another brand "Nakanori-san" last summer during a brewery tour and it was very tasty☺. This time we had "Zenkichi". Junmai Ginjo made with Nagano D yeast and Yamae Nishiki rice. The aroma is apple-like with a hint of acidity 🍎. The fruity, sweet and sour taste spreads from the calm mouthfeel! The second half of the bottle is sharp and crisp, with the umami of the rice quickly disappearing. The more it is kept at room temperature, the more slowly the umami and bitterness can be felt and the more satisfying it is!

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!
