I had come all the way to Niigata, but I hadn't had any sake!
So we had some sake from the inn.
I haven't had sake since I came here a long time ago.
It is a typical Niigata sake.
Yesterday, I went to Hardoff Eco Stadium in Niigata to watch the 106th National High School Baseball Championships in Niigata.
Nippon Bunri - Niigata Sandaitsuke
Chuetsu - Sado
On the way home, I had a drink at the travel bar on the first floor of a hotel near Niigata Station, which has a Ponshukan on the third floor.
Edamame and craft beer from Niigata prefecture.
Edamame and beer are both delicious 🍺.
During our conversation, I was asked where I was from and was recommended some sake from Ojiya, so I started with some sake from Niigata Meizo and Takai. In a titanium flat cup.
500 check-in for Niigata sake.
Mr. Hiraccio
Good morning ^_^
We have only the semi-finals and finals of the high school baseball tournament in Niigata left👍.
500 for Niigata sake only is great 😱!
And 100 for 4 more bottles of Shizuoka sake 😁.
Congratulations to Hiraccio on 500 check-ins for Niigata Sake 🎉㊗️🎊
It's high school baseball!
Akita, the younger brother of Terusei Yoshida is going to Koshien. ⚾️
He's only a sophomore, so next year might be the year 💦.
Hiraccio-san Good evening (^o^)Congratulations on your 500 check-in for Niigata sake✨Niigata sake is delicious! I like it too. There are still many Niigata sake that I don't know about, so I would like to learn about them little by little!
Thank you T.KISO 😊.
The decision of Kinsoku Noh to play in Koshien is hot 👍.
Shakine! to the, Zenryoku school song 👍.
I am looking forward to seeing them in Koshien.
Thank you, Sashi 😊.
The more I drink, the more I come across Niigata sake that I don't know about.
I always think that Niigata sake, which has become ingrained in my body, is delicious 👍.
This is Hiraccio, congratulations on your 500 Niigata sake check-ins: 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
That's a great number 😳and that's a lot of Niigata sake indeed👍✨.
Lots of sports this summer! Shiga is in the quarterfinals today😊.
Good morning, Pon 😊.
I think Niigata Prefecture has a lot of sake breweries and a wide variety of sake.
I see that the top 4 of the Shiga tournament has been decided.
I have never heard of Kusatsu High School.
It is served at Bikei Sushi between Okurayama and Tsunashima. 17%, but it is rather fruity with a strong flavor. It also has a bit of bitterness. The rice is not written on the bottle, but I guess it is Gohyakumangoku. It is delicious and to my liking!
The Nishikigoi is said to be the winner of the Sake Cup Competition. Indeed, it is lovely.
This is a product with a humble aroma in a soft mouthfeel. Very easy to drink.
Enjoy an evening drink with sake from Niigata Meikozo, a sake brewery in my hometown of Ojiya.
It is fresh, smooth and rich in flavor.
I bought two bottles, and I want to enjoy the other one after letting it sit for a while.
Last Thursday, after work, I dropped by the sake tasting and sale at the Ikebukuro Tobu Department Store.
Just like last year and the year before, my two senior members of the baseball team at my junior high school in the countryside were giving a splendid talk as salesmen.
His reaction 😊 was, "Oh, I've been waiting for you to come for sure👍."
In addition to Chou's sticker,
In addition to Chou's sticker, we also received a cold sake glass of "Koshino-Kanchubai" 😌.
Thank you 😊.
We talked a lot and tasted all kinds of sake, and I bought two bottles of Black Cho-san's Nama-no-Harajiku.
I think it is a sake brewery in my hometown, and it has the added advantage that I am used to drinking it and feel comfortable with it, but...,
However, it is a brewery that has won a number of gold medals in sake competitions in Niigata Prefecture, and has the ability to brew a wide range of sake styles.
Local "Chojamori" "Brown Cho-san"
Junmai Daiginjo with 50% polished Kame-no-o.
This is another sake that is smooth with a glossy taste, and comes with both wild vegetables and meat dishes.
I wondered how I would feel about the sake that followed, since the first glass was a Kuroryu Ishidaya, but both Sanbana's Mashiko and Chojamori's Black Chosan were good sake, and I was glad that my fears were not unfounded.
