Soma No Tengu Junmai Ginjo Nama Genshu
Going outside of my comfort zone tonight and into my wife’s territory with this big, bold namagenshu from Shiga prefecture. Soma No Tengu’s unpasturized usunigori is bold and memorable with crisp notes of green apple. This is a fresh, flavorful sake that you do not want to miss out on. #sake #sakesunday #nihonshu #namasake #floatingworld #genshu #日本酒 #生酒 #原酒 #somanotengu #shiga #junmaiginjo #usunigori #純米吟醸 #杣の天狗純米吟醸 #杣の天狗
Fukuju Junmai Ginjo
Tonight we’re sipping Fukuju Junmai Ginjo, light and approachable with subtle nudge of umami. This one falls into that wonderful “so smooth you accidently finished your glass” catagory! #sake #nihonshu #junmaiginjo #fukuju #hyogo #sakemonday #日本酒 #純米吟醸 #福寿 #酒乾杯 #乾杯 #saketotheworld #sakekanpai
Chiyomusubi Oyaji Gokuraku Junmai Ginjo

Brooklyn Kura "Lake Suwa" Junmai Ginjo
Loitering a bit at the newly opened Omakasa in Midtown. It feels kind of great to sit down and order a glass of @brooklynkura ’s sake just a few blocks from my office. #sake #sakemidtown #sakewednesdays #sakewednesdays #omakasa #nihonshu #brooklynkura #sakenyc #sakekampai #junmaiginjo #日本酒 #生酒 #純米吟醸
Nanbu Bijin Ruten Junmai Ginjo
Nanbu Bijin #Ruten is probably the rarest of this award-winning #iwate brewey’s New York selections, but it’s certainly one of my favorites. Made with Miyamanishiki rice, it’s light and clean with a subtle richness that sneaks up of you! #sake #sakemonday #sakemondays #junmaiginjo #miyamanishiki #nihonshu #sakenyc #sakekampai #nanbubijin #nanbubijinsake #日本酒 #南部美人 #純米吟醸
Shichida Junmai Ginjo Nama
Sometimes it feels as if Shichida’s Junmai Ginjo Nama actually gets better every year. Incredibly bold, flavorful, and full of a refreshing crispness, this is an absolutely fantastic example of nama sake! #sake #sakekampai #saketotheworld #shichida #saga #sagasake #tenzan #七田 #日本酒 #純米吟醸 #生酒 #nihonshu #nama #namasake #junmaiginjo

Suigei Junmai Ginjo Koiku No.54
Suigei’s Tokobetsu Junmai was one of my first sake loves, so I was thrilled to try their new Junmai Ginjo Koiku No.54. Refreshing and crisp, I highly recommend giving this a try.
