I went to Nishizawa Shoten in Kawayu, Teshikaga-cho to buy a sake I'd never had before ❗
It's a sake from Fukuoka Prefecture 🎵It's clean and fresh ❗Easy to drink and the moderate sweetness complements the Tsumami 👍It's also good lukewarm or warmed up 😉.

Kansai Salmon Roe Bring and Share Year-End Party⑰.
We said goodbye to Pon-chan, Kyuzo, Usagoten, Yasube, and Kaorin, and went to the second party.
We met up with Mr. Sakeran at Nishinakajima-minamikata station and had a videophone call with Tochigi Kenmin-kai members 😊.
It was interesting to see the tension between the Kansai group at the end of the first meeting and the Tochigi group right after the start of the first meeting 🤣.
Nemuchi-san helped me find a nice restaurant for the after-party. Thank you for everything 🙇.
Almost everyone at first? Cheers to beer!
Next we ordered Sake!
Asahi Kiku's fire-brewed sake was the first time I had ever had it!
The taste was calm and well-balanced.
Good evening, bouken 😃.
Indeed! There was a time difference in the drunkenness 😆 Good to see you all 🤗.
And we all toasted with beer 🍻something funny😁.
Hello Jay & Nobby ☀☀☀.
I'm sure you were drunk and that's why you were so excited 🤣.
If I were sober, I would have been like, "Oh, hey, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I might have been a bit of a tsundere like that 🙄.
I think we had highballs but it was mostly beer 🍺.
Fukuoka Prefecture is home to many delicious sake, and this is one of them!
Asahikiku Daichi✨It's a sake that's only available at retailers 🤗I bought it because I fell in love with the name~!
So I opened the bottle! The elegant aroma of Yamadanishiki (☺️) is truly elegant! The elegant sweetness spreads in the mouth, and as you swallow it, a beautiful and delicate bitterness comes in and finishes it off. This is truly a sake for a mealtime drink. I have had it with chanchan-yaki (grilled salmon), and it melts the fat of the salmon!
And it goes perfectly with chilled tofu 👍Sashimi would be good too! I don't have any today!
Thanks for another great sake today ✨😊😊Thanks for the food!
Trip to Fukuoka!
Ate at a motsunabe restaurant, horse sashimi and
Dry and mild.
I felt some bitterness when I drank it cold, but I liked the sweetness when it became lukewarm.
Maybe I like it at room temperature.
We were told that it was supposed to be warmed up, so we went with a lukewarm taste.
The label is also lovely when you hear about it from the master brewer.
