Kokura, stand Fukusuke (¡Ω).
Very refreshing and light, yet thick and delicious.
They say it goes down your throat, and they are really right!
I could use a little more of it!
I think there are many other things that go well with it.
I would like to try it heated as well.
Shinjo-san! I see you are in the middle of your visit to Fukuoka! I often go to Fukusuke stand in Kokura, all the way from Fukuoka city too 😆😆 Kokura is a mecca for daytime drinking ❣️ there are many good places to go, but this is my favorite place ⤴️ glad to share 😆😆😆!
Good evening.
Walking around the shopping arcade, I found many other good places to have a drink.
But I'm thinking this is the place to go next time.
This is the first time I've been to Kokura since I learned about sake, so next time I'd like to try a daytime drink!
Neither my brother nor my parents drink much alcohol.
When I go back to my hometown, the extra alcohol I have is what I drink for dinner 😄.
This is a sake that my brother got from his friend.
It was delicious and easy to match with meals.
Rice from years with a ☆ mark, which indicates good rice production
At first you think it's easy to drink, but then it seems to get heavier and heavier.
The knob is a Brikama ♪
Niigata Sake no Jin 2025!
Neji Otokoyama from the Watanabe Sake Brewery in DOMAINE WATANABE, Itoigawa!
At the sake camp, there are paid tables and free tables, and as I wanted to spare some time to sit and visit the breweries, the free tables were enough for me. It is fun to take a break and drink your purchased sake while sharing sake with people you don't know sitting nearby and making new friends.
Here is a bottle given to me by the lovely ladies next to me who had come from far away.
When I returned home, I found it in my backpack 🤣𐤔𐤔It had been snuck by someone when I was cleaning up on the way home.
It has a rich, full flavor,
It has a rich, full flavor with just the right amount of astringency and a clean, dry taste,
It is delicious!
The gap between the sweet and fruity sake is also nice, and once again, I was reminded how delicious sake is. It is also good heated!
Today we received a bottle of Otokoyama Yamahai brew.
Moreover, it is from a good year for rice production, marked with ☆.
The taste is completely different from Junmai Daiginjo.
It is rich and spicy, but not harsh.
This time it is wine🍷.
I would like to say, the label looks like a wine etiquette.
There is no way I can buy such fashionable sake by myself, it is a hanpukai sake.
It tastes exactly like sake 😆.
It is a blend of three different types of sake, including Gohyakumangoku and Koshitanrei.
It is a light and dry sake that cuts cleanly and crisply, typical of Niigata sake.
It also has a sweet taste if you try to catch it properly.
It is a bottle with a label like this that goes well with Japanese food.
Good morning, Maru 😀
I was surprised when I saw the label 😀.
I am hesitating when to open the bottle because it is just dry 🤣.
I'm going to enjoy Maru-san's post 😇
Good morning, Maru-brother ☀I remember drinking Nechiozan aged sake and being impressed by its beauty. The label is also very stylish and not like Niigata sake 😊.
Good evening, Yasube!
This wine is dry but not that dry and goes well with Japanese food 🙆🙆It doesn't match the label.
I'm sorry to lose my hanpukai friends, but I will continue to do my best with my hanpukai posts!
Good evening, Miss Peco😊.
I can only imagine what the aged sake of this would taste like. I feel that dry sake is more impressive when aged than sweet sake.
I would love to drink it 😋.
