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 🤣.

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!

The world has entered the GW season 📣. I'm not really related to GW or the Gundam Wing. I'm going to Shizuoka with my in-laws in the second half of the year, so I'll be working hard during the first half of the year ✨. Well, I'm going to open a bottle of sake and drink it all 🍶. Zenkichi Shinshu Secret Sake Hanpukai 2025 Gold Course This is the first time I signed up for the hanpukai this season 🤩. The Gold Course consists of two four-packs of sake delivered every month, each time with the description "fire-aged sake". ［The sake is mellow and apple-like.] The aroma is mellow and apple-sweet, the mouthfeel is soft, mellow and juicy, the sweetness extends to the palate, and then it finishes with a pleasantly sweet aftertaste that leaves the sweetness on the tongue, and finally changes to a soft minerality that lingers on the tongue and a slight bitterness in the throat. ［Mokkiri] Aroma of mellow, sweet and fruity rice, a clean and soft umami, and a sweet taste similar to apple, followed by a sweet aftertaste and a mineral sensation on the tip of the tongue. While it shares the same soft umami, sweetness, and firm flavor, the fine nuances of this sake can change dramatically depending on the sake container, making it a very enjoyable sake. I was in the mood for meat, so I took out some Akiyoshi Yakitori (grilled chicken) ✨.

The fourth picture is a once-a-week pleasure! ［Lunch at Kyo-ya, a handmade stone-ground buckwheat noodle restaurant 🍴. Soba noodles with grated radish are a must in Fukui! Here, you can order either grated radish mixed with soup stock [mizore] or squeezed spicy daikon [shibori], whichever you prefer!

Hi HinaHanaMama! We're all part of the GW busy group 🤗 This hanpukai is made exclusively for the hanpukai, so it's not for sale to the general public ✨. You won't know what's in it until you receive it every month between April and November🤣.

Hi ma-ki-san! ［I've been trying to choose a restaurant in Shizuoka by following your posts, but it's hard to find one that's open late because I have to go there after putting my kids to bed 😅. Zenkichi was a pretty good one the first time 🥰.

Hi Maru ☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀. I'm excited because I can't see what's inside until it arrives 🥰. Kyoya is also recommended for soba drinking, but it's too far from the station 😅. I'll have to try it this year 😙.

Hello, Noodle Drink King ☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀☀. I see, the world is holding up as GW because of the Zero System and the visibility of the holidays 💡. A world line where every household has a Wing Zero that is said to have the power to destroy the solar system. That's bad, isn't it?
