Honkin純米吟醸 美青 活性にごり 無濾過原酒
くるま麩
Active nigori is perfect for this hot season!
It is served with chilled chuka.
Made with Miyamanishiki produced in Suwa.
The aroma is fresh and citrusy
Taste like cream soda.
It is silky and has a strong shwashiness. Sweet and sour and very tasty.
It is surprisingly tangy afterwards and you will never get tired of drinking it. ✨️
The aroma of Miyamanishiki's Honkin is very satisfying.

Honkin Junmai Ginjo Bisei Nigori Nama 720ml

Rice polishing ratio 55
Alcohol level 16%.
The bottle was opened in February. White gas wavering in the mouth. This aroma is irresistible!
It is light, shwashy, and very tasty.
I think the active nigori of Biseong has been on the shelves since yesterday...
How shall we get it 😭

コタロー
Honkin, brewed entirely with ingredients produced in Suwa, is said to be the first draft to be released in three years.
The aroma is quite acidic.
When you taste it, it is chili, juicy, rich, and acidic. It is very delicious.
The next day, the chile-chile flavor subsides a bit, and the taste becomes richer. It has a soft sweetness and richness, a light flavor and acidity, and a clean mouthfeel. You can drink as many glasses as you want.
After a few days, the sweetness and bitterness gradually increase, and the full-bodied astringency is felt slowly, and the beautiful acidity tightens things up.
It was a highly satisfying sake that was both light and rich.

Honkin Junmai Yamae Nishiki Unfiltered Namaeshu 720ml
Rice used: Yamae-Nishiki produced in Nagano Prefecture
Rice polishing: 59
Alcohol content: 15%.
I was not sure which to open the bottle first, this or Biseong, but I opened this one.
The light acidity tightens the flavor. We paired it with simmered taro, butcher's croquettes and menchikatsu. It is a great match for meat dishes.
Thursday was a beautiful day, so I teleworked and worked in the field before work started.
I planted taro. Today, the weather looks good again, so I'm going to plant tomatoes and water eggplants 🍅🍆.

Honkin純米吟醸 諏訪 火入
ペンギンブルー
Not much aroma.
Taste similar to the previous one.
The acidity is a bit sharp and greef-like.
Melon-like chemical alcohol when swallowed.
When lukewarm, it tastes a bit oaky.
A perfect food sake that goes well with meals.
I think the owner of this restaurant is too excited,
But it is a good place to eat delicious grilled fish and vegetables.
Degree of liking ☆3.5/5

The light nigorigo sake we drank today from Honkin-san was also a delicious sake😇.
From the moment the bottle is opened, a beautiful and gorgeous aroma is rising 😇.
As usual, I mixed it with the supernatant at room temperature and left the mixture chilled 🤣.
I felt there was not much difference between the two 😀.
The taste and aroma were not so different no matter what way I drank it 😇.

Aroma is weak but fruity. It is like apple.
The characteristic of this wine is its refreshing acidity.
It also has a firm umami flavor and a moderate bitterness.
It is sharp and dry. Good to go down the throat.

Honkin純米吟醸「諏訪」 無濾過生原酒
くるま麩
Purchased at a brewery in Suwa on 4/20
Junmai Ginjo "Suwa" with water, rice (Miyamanishiki) and yeast all produced in Suwa.
In addition, this time, a limited quantity of recently released unfiltered, unpasteurized sake ✨️
The mouthfeel is smooth and thick, with a hint of a chili sensation. It has an exquisite acidity, a soft sweetness of rice, and a satisfying taste that is very delicious!
The lingering aroma on the nose, which is unique to Miyamanishiki, is superb☺.
I also tasted a fire-aged version at the brewery, and I felt that the unfiltered, unpasteurized sake was best for its liveliness and freshness, while the fire-aged version was best for the lingering aftertaste. Both are delicious. ✨️
If you like Miyamanishiki, I highly recommend Honkin!

Carefully crafted in a small brewery in Suwa
Delicious 🍶 sake 🌟
Familiar with Suwa's five breweries
A sake brewery with a calm atmosphere.
It's not flashy, but it has a classic taste.
Classical taste
Casually fruity
Adult fruit by adults 😋🍐.
Aiming to be an adult with dignity
