At home. This is the first time I've had sake from Hokkaido. I thought that Hokkaido's sake was more alcoholic, but it was completely different. You can feel the sweetness of the rice, and there is a bitter taste at the end. It is a refreshing type and very easy to drink. We received a lot of sake from Hokkaido, so we will try to taste and upload it little by little.

A Drink to Remember Series (5) In the early summer of 2015, I planned to take my car on a ferry to Wakkanai, Hokkaido, and when I arrived safely in Wakkanai, I had a drink at a yakitori restaurant for the first time in my life 🍶. The memory reminds me of the faint muscat-like aroma and sharp sharp sharpness 😋. The beauty of the label with the brand name, the wish behind the name "Fuyu Hanabi", and the taste of the local sake when you drink it on a trip...it was one of the reasons I became a sake lover 🎵. I still see it at Sake-no-wa from time to time, so I couldn't help but fish it out from old photos 😆. By the way, the picture was taken when I drank it with my family at the New Year's celebration after I returned from my trip. The other bottle in the picture, "Yukikirara", will be introduced another time ✨😉👍️

This is Kitanoshiki Houmon Honjozo. It is a little dry sake, but you can feel the sweetness. It is a delicious sake.

for record purposes Without any prior information or preliminary research I just thought... I bought it because it was Kita-no-Nishiki... I bought it just because it was Kita-no-Nishiki. Usually I usually enjoy it cold in the fridge. This time It is displayed at room temperature in the store. so I had it cold as it was. So... The flavor, spiciness, and acidity are just right! Beefsteak radish, steamed egg custard... Once again I met a delicious food wine!

We received Kitano-Nishiki, a Hokkaido Kobayashi Shuzo brewery limited edition. I unusually chose a slightly sweet flavor. Since I usually prefer dry sake, I usually have sashimi with my entrée, but I was told that it goes well with Western-style food, so I had it with stewed young chicken with tomatoes. It had an elegant, mellow flavor that went well with the dish!

I bought a bottle of seasonal sake - Autumn - at the Kobayashi Shuzo brewery in Kuriyama-cho, Hokkaido. It was slightly dry, refreshing, and very rich in flavor. It was a sake with the taste of autumn!

Sapporo souvenir 🤗. The aroma is mild, light and slightly spicy, reminiscent of young melon and apple. It is light, but after swallowing it down with a gulp, the richness and bitterness gradually spreads 😚. The third one is thick shrimp tsukemen topped with boiled egg. The whole wheat flat noodles are firm. When you slurp the noodles, you can smell the yuzu (Japanese citrus fruit) softly mixed with the fragrance of the prawns 😋.

Junmai Daiginjo, a limited edition of the brewery! I think I bought this brand when I visited the brewery before Corona. I think I bought this brand when I visited the brewery before Corona! The taste is a classical type with a soothing aroma and flavor.

Smooth mouthfeel, light rice aroma and a slight fruity taste. Slight acidity and lingering rice aroma. It goes well with beef halami, as you can feel the umami more intensely.

. Kita no Nishiki Kinenkan 30th Anniversary Label I received this as a gift from a person at work who is from Hokkaido😊. Thanks 🙏. The logo on the box is cute while also having a retro feel! The taste is delicious, with just the right amount of sharpness, sweetness and sourness 🌸. After a few days, the sharpness mellows out and the flavor is more easily matched with food! A precious bottle, a treat!

Nukadaira Gensengo Dokkomi Sake (2) This sake is a limited edition sake of Kitano-Nishiki. This is the first time I have tasted a sake made with rice called "Ginpu". It is fruity, but not overly floral and mild, perfect for simple dishes with local vegetables. ❗️ It goes well with meat, fish, and cheese alike ✨. It is a sake from a region where dairy farming is very popular. It is amazing that it also goes well with cheese 😍 In Obihiro, raclette cheese, cured ham, cured mozzarella, etc. are commonly served as appetizers and side dishes, so I guess it is normal that it goes well with dairy products as well as Japanese side dishes. ⁉️ Wonderful ❣️ Thanks for the treat 😋.
