It is a pop-up purchase at the usual store. This is what they call Akita sake. I am a Tohoku person, so this is perfect for me.
It has a great rice flavor, yet it is soooo refreshing and easy to drink and goes great with food! It is very easy to drink and goes well with meals! Delicious!

I can taste the sweetness of the peach strain 🍑.
Still, the finish is clean and light 😙.
I think it's the subtle tanginess of the raw sake 🤗.
Sweetness is increased with oden: ⤴️
I wonder if it's because of the dashi (Japanese soup stock).
I've been curious about dashiwari lately 😁.
Hi Hiro, good evening 😃.
I drank Chokaizan last year and was amazed at how good it was😍I know the liquor store is far away 🥲 but I think I'll go buy some more 😁.
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😃.
This is the first time I've had Chokaizan and it's really delicious and can be served alone or with food 😚.
I read it as "Toriumiyama", secret: ㊙️ Rikishi or ‼️🤣
Sake degree +3, 15% alcohol. I thought it might be spicy because it is from Chokaizan, but it is not. It has umami, a little bitterness, and a little firmness. It is not heavy. I guess soft is the right word. It is a delicious sake!
I am back home with my parents! We received sake that my mother purchased at the supermarket.
Unbeknownst to me, my mother and brother were also into sake, lol!
Very tasty with a strong sweet and spicy taste 🤤.
Deep flavor but not too heavy on the stomach even after many cups ✨.
Akita prefecture has a lot of strong flavored preserved/fermented foods, so I think this sake is for pairing with local cuisine.
Two regulars were the first customers at the restaurant.
I sat between them and listened to the conversation between the proprietress and the regulars.
One of the regulars came to the restaurant again.
It seems that there are people who go to several restaurants in Akachochin Yokocho.
Each restaurant seems to have its own characteristics, so let's go to the other one next time (it was temporarily closed on that day)!
The last sake was also Akita sake!
Junmai Daiginjo Chokaizan Nama Sake
Surprisingly, I had only had Chokaizan once at Sakebai!
This limited-time-only sake also has a banana aroma and taste!
I have not been able to find banana-flavored sake recently, so I may have had a chance to try it today!
Check 💵 before it was full!
I'm in the middle of a weight-loss plan with a medical checkup coming up in March, but I ended up having Kushiro Ramen afterwards at Kadoya, famous for its mussel shells!
Well, I'm on a steady weight-loss trend, so I guess it's okay for tonight at least!
I'm going to Obihiro tomorrow because the JR express train is supposed to be running!
I'm going to Obihiro to see the heavy snow. 🌨️
knowledge gained through study
Rice polishing ratio : 50 %
Rice : 100% Miyamanishiki produced by Tenju Sake Rice Research Association
Alcohol content : 15 %
Yeast used : ND-4
Sake degree: +1
Acidity: 1.3
Stable taste
Slightly fizzy, soft ginjo aroma, light sweet white grape. If you keep it in your mouth like a wine, the sweetness and the piquancy will stand out, and it will feel more mellow.
I recommend to drink it on the third day after opening the bottle.
