Suwa 5 Breweries Tour (3)
The Suwa 5 Breweries Tour set is available at the tourist information center in Kamisuwa Station for 3,000 yen. 22 tastings in total are available at the 5 breweries. Includes a drawstring, glass, and sticker mount.
The third brewery, Honkin-san.
There are four tastings. The reception desk is to the left of the entrance in an old private house style. It is small and has a nostalgic feel.
My impression of the sake was Honkin Junmai-shu.
The color is clear. The aroma has a moderate alkaline taste.
On the palate, "What the heck is this?" and the words 💦 come out.
Strong acidity and bitterness gradually give way to a green apple-like sweetness.
It is unique but not unpleasant. If anything, it's a classic flavor.
I was surprised that there is such a way to describe this drink 😳.

Good morning, Hiro 😃.
Nice tour of the breweries in Suwa 🤗Honkin-san! I got it last year on a Shinshu sake trip and was shocked by the sourness that sets it apart from other Shinshu sake 😳.
Oh! Congratulations on your 100 check in ㊗️ 🎉!

Good morning, Jay & Nobby ☀☀☀.
㊗️, thank you 😊.
'A sourness that sets it apart', that's exactly what it was: ❗️
I suspected it had changed over time ❓ but your comment cleared that up 😆.
