This is the second bottle of limited edition sake I purchased from Watanabe Sahei Shoten in Nikko, Tochigi.
It was too hot in the summer and all I drank was beer, so I kept it chilled in the fridge.
Sold only in Tochigi prefecture!
And it's delicious too, but I can't tell the difference from the "Yume Sasara" I drank before (crying).
I left too much time in between and couldn't tell...
Good morning, daddy Haru 😃!
Oh! I see you got your second bottle ‼️ sorry to keep you waiting for so long but 😆 good taste is everything so all is OK 😊.
Infinite train 🚂💨
It wasn't, SL Taiki's cup of sake 🍶.
Instead of the usual cup! I bought it 😆.
It is different from the Nikko Honor from the other day, it has a slight sweetness with a hint of rice and a refreshing taste.
It does not have many characteristics, but it is a delicious sake☺.
I only had one glass, so I had it cold for now, but it looks good heated 🙆.
Nikko trip purchases: ✈️
It has a firm, full-bodied Junmai type flavor with a slight dryness.
It is a little dry with a refreshing flavor of "Gohyakumangoku".
I thought I should have bought the Yumesasara Nikko Honor, which is made from Tochigi Prefecture's sake brewing rice, if I had gone through the trouble 😂💭.
(although it seems that Gohyakumangoku is also produced in Tochigi prefecture)
Hello, Mayoko 😃.
Welcome to Nikko🤗
We got the dream sarara for you at Kiri number 😋 How about visiting Utsunomiya next time to eat gyoza🥟 and visit a liquor store 😄.
It's been a long time since I've had a fresh sake
A souvenir from Tochigi by my sister-in-law.
Slightly carbonated raw sake!
My brother-in-law said, "A 0% ratio means that 100-00% of the rice has been cut. (-△% means ginjo, and daiginjo means...)"
Sister-in-law "Wow. I like watery sake. What kind of sake is it?
Brother-in-law: "..."
My brother-in-law was still in training.

Nikko is Imaichi, the first Nikko Honor by Sahei Watanabe!
After Aizu Homare, you are now a Homare hunter?
I went to Nikko with my family 🐒.
I didn't know that Watanabe Sahei-san is across the street from Nikko Roadside Station 😂.
I really wanted to go to the sake brewery, but I cried and bought some at the roadside station 😫.
Soft aroma, refreshing sweetness that feels like a summer sake.
At first, it had a slight al? or brewed sake? but it is junmai ginjo☺.
It tastes great cold, but I knew it was alu-feeling😃.
The closer you get to room temperature, the softer and smoother the texture and sweetness.
What can I say, it was delicious 😆.
Good morning, Yasusake 😃.
Did the honor hunters have a blast? I'm not sure 🤩.
And Nikko Honor. This cool label and bottle is just like a summer sake ❗️ It also seems to be for room temperature, which is quite connoisseur 😆.
Hi Yasusake!
Let's make a "Honor Hunter😎" T-shirt at ‼️ so we can never go back 🤗Nikko Honor was our number 500! I work in Imaichi, but I've never been there 😅.
Hello, Hiro-san!
Honor hunter,, I can't do it (lol).
Masamune Tsugu, please 😫.
The Nikko Honor is a very summery sake from the outside! It was my first time to try it and I enjoyed it👍.
Hi Jay & Nobby!
I was able to do it because the honors kept coming lol and the title of hunter is too heavy for me... 😫.
I will enjoy it steadily 😁.
I haven't been to Imaichi in a while, but I will explore the Nikko area again✋.
Hi Yasusake😄
I'm sure you'll have a great time in Nikko with your family 🤗.
We Tochigi residents can go there in a flash 🤗.
I've been to Nikko more times than I can count, but I haven't visited a sake brewery yet 😙Touring sake breweries is definitely a lot of fun 😊♪
Good evening, Tsubu-chan!
It was really just a wander, and I was in Nikko in the afternoon lol.
I'd love to visit various breweries 😄
I've visited many times in the past but they were closed 😅and all of them were outside of the prefecture 😭I guess you have to do your research 💦.
I'll take some as a souvenir 🍶🤤.
It has a gorgeous ginjo aroma and a mild mouthfeel, and is well-balanced as a food sake.
100% Yamadanishiki, Polishing ratio 45
Alcohol content 15.7
Limited edition sake purchased at Watanabe Sahei Shoten in Nikko, Tochigi Prefecture. The store was an old and austere store attached to a sake brewery.
Because it is a limited edition sake, they only distribute it within Tochigi prefecture. It is a precious sake!
And it is delicious! It may be the best sake I have ever tasted.
It is sweet in the mouth, but after that, it cuts through. It seems to go well with any meal. I might buy it again while it is available by mail order.
Good morning, daddy Haru😃!
Here we got it a year ago at the kilometer number 😋 delicious 🤗Ah! I noticed you have over 100 🎉Congratulations on going over ‼️100
(^▽^)o🍶🍶🍶🍶
GW trip to Tochigi
On the way back from Nikko Toshogu Shrine, we visited the brewery, Watanabe Sahei Shoten. The sake is brewed with Yumesasara, a sake rice produced in Tochigi Prefecture 😀.
The aroma is soft and not too gorgeous 😊The taste in the mouth is elegant and beautifully sweet and umami 😋The aftertaste disappears smoothly and neatly 😚 It is a delicious sake 🥳.
The fourth picture is pickled burdock root in tamari that I bought at the roadside station across from the brewery. It's just the right snack for sake 😇I should have bought more 😭.
Good morning, Manachy 😀 I bought some pickled cheese🧀 tamari 😚👍I ate it as soon as I got back from Tochigi 😋I ate it before taking a picture 🤣it was delicious😊.
