105th National High School Baseball Championship Memorial Tournament in Niigata
4th round (Best 16)
Sanjo High School - Nagaoka High School
A matchup of traditional and advanced schools in the Chuetsu area of Niigata Prefecture.
I rushed from Saitama to Nagaoka Yukuyama stadium by Shinkansen to cheer for my favorite Sanjo High School.
It had been a long time since I had been to the Yuukyuyama Stadium. It had been probably 30 years.
Nagaoka High School (Nagataka, or Cho Kou), the top seed in the Niigata Tournament, won a cold game against Teikyo Nagaoka, and many Nagaoka citizens packed the stadium.
Sanjo won 6-5 Nagaoka.
The team advances to the top 8 in the summer for the first time in 43 years.
It was very moving. ❗️
I was glad to be able to watch it there.
I had a drink in the Nagaoka station area 🍺🍶.
The corner store of Kanese Shoten is in today, the day of the sea, opening at 3pm.
They have a rather large selection of non-Niigata sake, but I wanted to try some Niigata sake, so I had a dry junmai sake from Sotenbo.
Umami and dry sharpness👍.
Nagaoka-grown edamame (green soybeans) as a side dish.
Niigata's edamame in summer is still delicious 😋.
Mr. Hiraccio, you are in Niigata to watch a high school baseball game. It is even more exciting when the high school you are rooting for wins, isn't it? And drinking at a corner bar in the evening is a blissful moment.
Good evening, Mr. Sashu 😊.
It was a thrilling experience to watch your favorite high school play live, and you were so excited and thrilled when they won👍
It was a really good feeling to celebrate 🍺🍶.

The freshness of nama-shu and the flavor of junmai-shu make it easy to drink in summer.
Goes well with simmered dishes and meat dishes
Jange" is an interesting and delicious sake brewed with the playful spirit of the ninth generation.
The rice is hand-rolled, the "steaming rice steamer" and "box koji method" are used, and the sake is produced under the same level of production control as daiginjo-style sake.
Bottle enclosure is the difference in the method of storing the squeezed sake directly in a bottle instead of storing it in a tank. The advantage of this method is that the sake can be easily stored in a refrigerator, making it easier to produce better sake in terms of temperature control.
Rice used: 100% Niigata rice
Rice polishing ratio: 65
Alcohol content: 16%.
Sake degree: +15
Acidity: 1.6
Mild rice aroma

Sharp sharpness despite being a junmai sake
Yet, the sharpness has a grace? It has a graceful finish!
The aftertaste is not beautiful, but the sharpness is beautiful.
I was impressed by the fact that it has a character that leaves nothing behind!
