As we head into the busy year-end season, it is important to refresh ourselves in the intervals between events, so tonight we had another glass of wine. I opened a bottle of "Kitayuki Junmai Ginjo" from Sado Island, Niigata, which I was told about at an izakaya I often visit! It has a sweet aroma from the moment it is poured, and when you take it into your mouth, the sweet and umami flavors quickly run out, leaving you with a gentle, smooth, and clear image of the after-flavor! Whether it is the water or the brewing method, I am addicted to this clear aftertaste! With only one month left in this year, I'm getting drunk and thinking that it's time to narrow down the bottle of 2022 that I will choose 🍶.

If I sleep for a day today, it will be Friday... so I opened the bottle in good spirits. The aroma is fruity with no hint of alcohol. It has a softness that is typical of nama-shu. When you take a sip.... Hmm, it's sweet. It has a solid taste that doesn't betray your expectations. It's a taste I like. However, there is an alcohol feeling on the throat. It's not too much to worry about. I'd like to try the other Hokusetsu.

Kitayuki after a long time. I had the impression that it was refreshing, but this has a juicy flavor that is typical of nama-gara sake and is delicious.

I ordered it lukewarm in a 2-gou Tokugawa. This sake is best served warmed. It has a moderate acidity and a nice normal sake-like flavor that wafts to the palate when it is warmed up.

Hokusetsu was seen everywhere in Niigata. It was a beautiful, clear sake with an elegant vanilla-like sweetness and clean taste. It is a pity that we don't see it very often in the Kanto region.

Drinking Iron Day 2 starts in Niigata Niigata is a bit far from Kansai. In the past, you could get there without changing trains by Shirotori or Raito, and when I was a child, I longed to take them when I saw trains bound for Aomori or Niigata at Osaka Station... but now, any route requires quite a few transfers! But now I have to change trains quite a bit, no matter which route I take. First of all, the green cup is very particular! It's a sake with bitterness and umami 🍶. But it's still refreshing and is a Niigata sake!
