Sounkyo♨️ located in Daisetsuzan National Park ♨♨️ at Sounkaku Grand Hotel It is said that there were as many as 16 breweries in Asahikawa during the Meiji era. One of them is called Hatsuichi, which is a brand name that comes from the Arai Brewery. The Sounkaku Grand Hotel here is run by a parent company called Arai Kensetsu, which seems to be a descendant of the Arai Brewery. Sake must have been an important snack item in the history of the original settlement of Asahikawa, Hokkaido, from Fukui Prefecture. Hatsuichi, brewed on consignment by Asahikawa's Takasago Brewery, has a rich, full flavor as Junmai, with a fruity yet robust finish that is enjoyable and goes well with food 🎵. I hope to see you again with one of the limited edition bottles. You can get it at the hotel store, but I would like to enjoy it with plenty of yuka♨️ again 😋.
