I bought this sake last month at a direct sales place in Chino.
When I looked at it, I was surprised to see that it was six months before it was released from the warehouse.
The label is fashionable even though it is made of real gold!
Sweetness and acidity reminiscent of strawberries.
It's delicious, but I think it will get better if it sits for a while.
I think I'll seal it for a week.
Polishing ratio 60%.
Almost transparent.
Slightly alcoholic sake aroma.
The palate has a strong acidity, followed by umami and a distinctive bitterness. The taste is firm. It seems that there are different tastes. 2.7
Modern sake for a long time!
Chilled it is fruity sweet and delicious! I heated it up to try it out because it's a honjozo and it was surprisingly 👍It tasted interestingly spicy with the sweetness of modern 😂.

I bought this sake at Hata Sake Shop because I wanted to repeat after buying it at Suwako 😊.
A bottle with the same juicy feeling as before.
This time, instead of having a gorgeous aroma and refreshing spiciness, it changed from fruity to sweetness between rice 🌾.
The spiciness resets your mouth and allows you to enjoy the entrée again and again: ✌️
Thanks for the treat 🫡.
Today's sake is Honkin Taichi from Suwa, Nagano Prefecture❗️❗️
The aroma is a faint sweet scent❗️As you take a sip, you get the rich texture of the original sake on your tongue, raw tingling and aldehyde-like aroma❗️❗️ good sake⭕️
Sake Nunoya Honkin Sake Brewery, Suwa City, Nagano Prefecture - Honkin Junmai Hiyoroshi
A simple, serious junmai sake from a brewery by Lake Suwa.
But the freshness is a little stimulating on the tongue, and it's nice to really feel where the name Honkin comes from (brewing the real best sake)!
14 degrees, 59% polished rice, Miyamanishiki from Suwa
It is so smooth that you may wonder if it is Yamahai. Of course, it has the feel of Yamahai, but it is definitely a sake that should be drunk slowly. It is definitely a sake that should be drunk slowly.
It has a unique flavor and smoothness like an old sake. It is supported by strong acidity. This is a product that is amber not in color but in taste. I would like to buy it again! I would not recommend it to those who prefer beautiful sake.
2025 New Year Suwa Gokura Tour (3) Honkin
Junmai Daiginjo Miyamanishiki
I have had it. Characterized by its soft flowery aroma and moist sweetness.
Junmai Daiginjo Miyamanishiki No. 7 Yeast
The character is very different from the above, with sweet and sour, umami, and bitterness.
The gentle aroma of the aftertaste is also strong in this one. The gentle aroma of the aftertaste can be felt here as well and is very good.
Junmai Hiyoroshi
The taste is acidic and slightly sweet. The aftertaste is bitter and rich.
Soupin Taichi Honjozo Unfiltered Unrefined Nama Sake
Fresh and easy to drink.
The first half is light with a beautiful sweet and sour taste,
The second half is tangy, deep and satisfying.
Kurumafu-san, I see you are enjoying your tour of the 5 Suwa breweries 🎵.
I was there a few years ago and was very impressed with the Honkin ✨.
I really want to try the Honkin this year 😊.
Good evening, ma-ki-san!
Honkin is my favorite sake, especially for its aroma: ✨️
The variations have changed since I was here last summer and I really enjoyed it!
This is my last post for this year.
I had a great time this year thanks to all of you. Thank you very much😄
I bought this sake at Hasegawa Sake Shop when I went to see my daughter dance at Tokyo Dome.
I tasted it in Suwa but bought other specs. My husband was so mad at me why I buy Nagano sake in Tokyo 🤣.
I wanted to taste the light sharpness of Miyamanishiki in this gold.
My son's wife's family sent us oysters and we had them grilled, but the gas alarm went off and I was surprised. I was surprised when the gas alarm went off.
Oysters and honkin are the best.
Luteltemi, I'm jealous of the book money you missed out on buying: ⤴️
Oysters and sake are the best 🎵.
Thank you so much again this year. I look forward to working with you again next year 🙇.
Well, have a happy new year 🌄.
Good evening, Mr. Rutemi. The end of the year spent with the pairing of Miyamanishiki's light and sharp Honkin with fresh oysters. It was nice to meet you in Tokyo 😊 Thank you for your hospitality this year! Have a great New Year's 👋
Luteltemi, good evening ^_^.
Oysters and sake, that's good👍.
I didn't buy Honkin during my trip to Nagano, I'd like to drink it if I have a chance 😊.
Have a happy new year 🙇.
Good evening, Hirupeco😄.
It was a pleasure to talk to you this year. The surprise oysters allowed me to enjoy with the real gold 😄 Please come back next year 🙇🐍.
Good evening, Manta😄.
I was happy when I found it because I am far from the special dealers in my hometown. Sake and oysters are delicious 😋Please have a nice new year.
I look forward to seeing you next year 😄🐍.
Good evening, Rutemi 😃Oyster kankan-yaki. Isn't it the best sake partner 😆💕I had a lot of fun with you this year ‼️ and I hope to see you again next year 🙇♀️
Hi Lutertemi 😃Happy New Year 🌅.
I can't find any other word to describe it other than psycho 😍 oysters 🦪 cankanyaki for Honkin that I would love to buy in Tokyo 🤗.
I look forward to working with you this year 🙇🏻🙇🏻♀️
Happy New Year, Mr. Wakata 🎍I hope we will have many opportunities to meet in the new year 😄Thank you again for your support in the new year 🙇.
Oysters and sake go well together.
I was surprised when the gas alarm went off: ‼️
It was 🤣.
Happy New Year to you, Jay & Nobby 🎍 and I wish you a happy new year 🙇.
The oysters and sake were great. The Honkin tasted better than the one we tasted in Suwa😋.

On New Year's Eve, the last sake of the year was Honkin Junmai Daiginjo No. 7 yeast, served in a Bizen ware sake cup!
I didn't look at the price😅No, I should have, but you'd think the 3000 yen range would be the price for a single bottle, wouldn't you?
I was surprised to see that I paid almost 9,000 yen for four 4-gou bottles 🙀.
The lady (lady) at the liquor store told me "as expected" but no, no...
Miyamanishiki ALL Suwa sake
The Suwa sake that is different from the recent sharp and challenging Honkin.
It has a solid drinking experience, a Miyama-like acidity, and a crisp dry taste.
It has sweetness and umami aftertaste, and is delicious as a sake!
I've been drinking a lot of sweet sake recently, so this kind of sake is great to finish off the day, and it's a locally produced sake!
In a good way, Motokin-san betrayed me!
Lower the price!
Have a Happy New Year everyone!
Gyaban, thank you very much for your help this year. I look forward to working with you again next year 🙇.
Gyaban, I hope you have a happy new year too 🌄.
It felt like a less sweet type of this gold, but easy to drink... but the moment I put it in my mouth, I felt uncomfortable 🤔.
I was told the answer to the discomfort but I can't write it here 🤫.
Yum!
I went to a liquor store to buy sake for my New Year's celebration. The only "Yamahai" sake available was Honkin, so I was attracted by the Yamahai label and bought it.
It is easy to drink!
It has a strong taste and is refreshing. It tastes like Yamahai.
I like it.
It complements food without being too assertive. It doesn't smell of alcohol, but it has a solid taste. It is not gorgeous, but the overall taste is well balanced.
Anyway, it's good 😋.
