We had a light drink at Ponshukan during the day, and at night we had a drink at the hotel with Iburi Gakko cheese bought at Seijo Ishii in Niigata Station and a financier sold at a souvenir store near Ponshukan.
Of course it goes well with cheese, but it also goes really well with financier! The financier's almond flavor was more pronounced when soaked in the luxurious sake.
I'm afraid I'll get fat if I start thinking about pairing sweets and sake, so I'll limit myself to financiers and manju buns sold by the piece only when I visit Niigata.
As for the taste of Nekobayama, it was a familiar one with no particular peculiarities, so I enjoyed it.
I am a person who usually drinks a 180ml bottle in a cup over a few days, but I feel that once I open a one-cup bottle, it is the last time I drink it (especially when traveling), so I think I will have trouble handling it. Let's learn.
About ten years ago,
I went to a hot spring in Echigo-Yuzawa.
I stopped by Ponshu-kan and learned about Mt.
The orthodox sake.
Good and nostalgic.
The old and good sake.
Hanami with one cup and canned sake.
Cherry blossoms are beautiful.
Purchased at a sake camp.
Sweet at first, then bitter.
Aromatic, then clean and crisp.
The flavor changed again when I started to snack on the Kaki-no-tane Sansho flavor.
Sake is interesting.
(I want to learn how to express the taste of sake more...)

First "Naeba-yama".
I enjoyed it at a hotel in Echigo-Yuzawa.
In addition to this, there were Junmai and Honjozo,
and a pure rice and a honjozo, which we could drink as much as we wanted.
It was a wonderful time.
Niigata's sake is delicious, and I want to drink it again.
Compared with a regular sake of the same brand. Compared to the regular sake, it has a more robust aroma of rice and a first impression of sweetness.
Freshly pounded rice cake, fresh cream, lime tree
Compared with Junmai (pure rice) from the same brand. The light, refreshing sake quality typical of Niigata goes well with the refreshing feeling typical of Aruzoe.
Grapefruit, honeysuckle, chervil
I received this as a birthday present from a friend🎁.
It is rather straight and dry.
She said it goes well with sweets.
It's a sake that will tighten and wash away the sweetness left on the palate of sweets 🍶.
The label is cute~❤️
