2025 Summer Vacation. To Lake Suwa & Karuizawa.
I will see old friends tomorrow and it will be a good family trip.
The sake is a little fruity, mellow and delicious.
At a standing bar in Shinbashi.
The alcoholiness typical of honjozo and the sweet freshness of nama-zake.
While aromatic and dry, it also has plenty of full-bodied sweetness.

I've already done a few rounds of the sake on the menu, so I'm going to ask for off-menu drinks from the start. Ah, the usual restaurant.
Urasaku no Hana, Jyukyu, Zenkichi, Sumiage, and Yamasan, one sake each... I had the option of stopping after the fourth cup, but despite the spontaneity of this business trip, I was satisfied with what I got, so I was in a "let's drink it" mood. You should have stopped here...
On the way to the hotel, I looked in my bag and saw that the clear file with the hotel key card was missing 😱.
I left it at the university where I work 😭After taking a cab to the hotel and collecting the card key, I had to walk back to the hotel because I couldn't find a cab. A 20 minute walk in the middle of the night feels like more than 30 minutes, in fact it might have taken me that long since I was wandering around.
Yes, I fell asleep 😫.
The last one is a cute bear at the reception of the hotel 🐻.
Good morning, Nochi-san. ☀It's hot in Kanto. Nagano is not a summer resort at all though.
Yes, I've been in this mountain three bitterness and it's getting sweeter and sweeter and tastier.
I'm a man of many gaps 💦I guess it's the expensive sake we have 😆.
Hello, Ane-san!
Oh my goodness, I'm so sorry to hear that 💦.
I'd love to try some Nagano sake, like Saku no Hana 😋.
I'll drink and then walk and fall asleep at the hotel 😁✨✨.
Hi Ane 🐦.
Is it Zenkichi's summer sake? It's delicious😊I haven't been able to drink it this year 😊.
I'm sorry you had a hard time 😰I'd die in a hotel after drinking and walking that much 😱.
Hi ma-ki-😃
Well, I'm basically a bad person 🤣I drink Nagano sake all the time, both at home and on business trips, I enjoy all the different flavors. Saku city sake is good! It's hard to fall asleep 😓.
Hi, Pon-chan!
There are not many places that sell Zenkichi, so when I find it, I drink it 😊.
I guess I didn't notice it before I drank it. I did a lot of other things on this business trip, so maybe it was the timing 💦.
