The second Niigata souvenir!
I opened Yahiko Aikoku. A liquor store near the torii gate of Yahiko Shrine recommended it to me because "everything is made in Yahiko.
When I drank it, it tasted so gorgeous! The sweetness spread in my mouth and it was delicious😍.
I would buy this sake again when I go back to Yahiko 🍶.
Ponshukan Nagaoka Ekimae drinking grui 9 cups.
Next up is Yahiko, ranked 8th last month.
I drank a glass of Yahiko, wondering if it was popular in the regular sake genre. I wondered why it was so popular in the "normal sake" category, and had another glass.
It was so refreshingly dry and tasty that I thought it might be a normal sake scam.
If this is a normal sake, I have high expectations for junmai sake as well.
Sake tasting at Niigata station.
Next stop is Yahiko.
Soft and moderately umami and spicy.
The mildness is unique.
I didn't buy it this time, but I was so impressed with its mildness that I want to buy it next time I see it.
The photo is the torii gate of Yahiko Shrine ⛩️ and Mt. Yahiko ⛰️ that we passed on the way to Teradomari from Niigata City the next day.
I asked my daughter, who was in the passenger seat, to take my picture.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby😃.
Our trip to Niigata was a wonderful experience with food, sake 🍶 and scenery 🚗.
The sudden appearance of the Otorii gate ⛩️ was very impressive 😊.
