It might be an embarrassing label for an uncle to pick up. But I went to the cash register with dignity.
My mind said, "This is by no means a jack-in-the-box."
The point is not to make your eyes swim. I looked straight at the clerk and paid the bill.
Delicious~~! Fruity. Is the apple a grape? Refreshing and light. Be careful not to drink too much.
The rice is Mencoina from Akita Prefecture~! It is still a cute sake!
Good morning, Pekkar 😃.
Didn't it say 'no uncles please 😌' 😆 I'm sure your pure sake spirit 🥹 is getting through to the waiter and being talked about at dinner 😁.
I'm curious about menkoi sake!
Good morning, Jay & Nobby! So, your uncle brought you a Yukinofu. It was fine, but it was his first time to pay with d-pay, and it was very confusing and difficult to operate. I'm blushing.
Nibe croaker (Nibea mitsukurii)
The drinking set of the day was
Akita, Heart Label, Arahashiri, and Nama Genpai, which is a mysterious binding that includes hearts.
The name of the brewery comes from "Azakura-jo," another name for Yokote Castle, the symbol of Yokote City (Akita Prefecture).
The brewery carries on the tradition of the Yamauchi Touji, one of the nation's five great toji (master brewers).
Ringo-chan is a low-alcohol (in the 12% range) undiluted sake with multi-acidic yeast (No.77) and a sour taste.

#Nihon-shu
Hanshin Department Store Nippon Sake Festival
10/29-11/04
This is not a "sake" festival, but a "Nippon Sake" festival. There are 4 participating sake breweries: Iori, Jinzo, Asakura, and Kikusui. In addition, there are 8 breweries in total: Godai-an (liqueur), Gotei (shochu), and 2 spirits breweries, GOTOGIN and NOZAWAGIN.
The one that caught my attention was A-Sakura.
◉Junmai Daiginjo Unfiltered Nama-shu Misato Nishiki
Rich and fruity, with a deep and rich umami. My favorite type.
A-Sakura BLACK
Junmai Daiginjo with a slightly sweet attack and a nice bitter aftertaste. I thought it was good, but the price is a little high, so I hesitated to try it.
◉Kame-no-o Unfiltered Unrefined Harazake
Kame-no-o is a rare sake, so I had to try it. It seems to be made with out of quality rice, so it is treated as a regular sake. The taste is full, complex, and has a strong umami aftertaste, just like Kame-no-o. It is also my favorite.
◉Junmai Daiginjo, unfiltered, 35% Yamadanishiki, limited edition, bag-hanging.
We were also allowed to sample a very expensive one, which we took. It is a beautiful and tasty water.
◉A Sakura Re-jozo Shuzukuri
The taste is thick and syrupy, with a rich, syrupy mouthfeel. The sweetness is cut by the acidity and does not linger. Fukuhibiki is processed rice used to make rice crackers. Slightly sweet.
Many of my favorite types.
Aroma: It has a peculiar aroma like that of a traditional sake yeast yeast yeast yeast yeast 🍶.
It has a dry taste with mellow flavor 😊.
Alcohol content is also good ‼️
