It is a souvenir of Kusatsu from his father. It was a refreshing, slightly spicy sake with a hint of sweetness. I think it can be served warmed.

It has a samurai-like design and a blood splattering color, and it has a sake level of +15! I couldn't help but be curious about this one, so I bought it! When I opened the bottle and poured it, the aroma was dry. It also has a savory aroma like steamed rice. The dry, light flavor and the richness of Junmai are well balanced on the palate, giving it a slippery sensation. The acidity also makes it taste slightly citrus-like 🍊. It smells like ginjo, and in a good way, it is not like Junmai! The aftertaste is also refreshing and easy to drink from start to finish👍. I thought it would be a simple dry sake, but it was surprisingly fruity and refreshingly delicious!

It has a refreshing green apple-like flavor and fades quickly. As the day goes by, the flavor also develops and becomes more savory.

Strong punch as soon as it enters the mouth. Super dry. But no aftertaste at all. ☆☆☆☆

☆☆☆☆ It's dry but goes down easy. It's easy to drink because it doesn't leave a bad aftertaste in the second half. I bought this on the way back from Kusatsu Onsen.

On the last day of Golden Week, I returned home from Kita-Karuizawa by noon. It's raining and traffic jams would ruin my vacation. I took a nap and drank a glass of sake with a bamboo wheel. It's so natural and easy to drink that you don't even realize you're drinking sake.

A drink on a family vacation. Drinkable size. I bought a large one, but I'll have that one another day when I get back.

Tsuchiya Sake Shop Limited Edition Higen. It is totally different from the regular Higen, so if you go to Kusatsu, sake lovers should try it! By the way, there are 4 types of Tsuchiya Sake Shop Limited only ^^;.

Sake purchased during a trip back to my hometown in Gunma. In the past 10 years or so, there has been an increase in the variety of delicious sake in Gunma, which was unthinkable before. I have the impression that the young master brewers are doing a particularly good job. Higen" is new to me, but it has a fresh taste that I like. I would like to buy it again when I go back to my hometown.

I had it with sushi as a food sake 🙏. Sadly, I forgot to take a picture of it! It has a delicious rice flavor, but not too sweet and refreshing. The texture is just right as it is lightly nigori (lightly cloudy). I thought it is a well-balanced sake that does not kill the delicate taste when served with sushi, yet it has a delicious aroma when it goes down your throat🙆.

Gentle on the palate, but leaves a bitter aftertaste. I don't think I like it very much.
