The toji's name is "Satoshi", which is why it is called the 34th.
I think this is the only liquor store that not only offers a lineup of sake, but also tastings and pointers about the sake.
Tasted at a liquor store.
It is a fizzy version of the Pink Kappa that I drank before. The fizzier version is more refreshing, but I personally prefer the pink Kappa.
Yamagata Prefecture
Junmai Kasumishu (limited edition)
Polishing ratio 65
Alcohol 15%.
The slightly carbonated, refreshing taste reminds one of spring.
It is dry and very easy to drink.
The mild alcohol content makes it an enjoyable sake.
The second glass was Yonesuru.
This is another super dry sake with excellent sharpness.
It may be a bit like Yamagata-esque sake 🤔.
It would be good warmed up 🍶.

YONETSURU is named after the image of an ear of rice that bows to the brewer, and the local folk tale "Tsuru no Ongyo" ("The Crane Returns the Favor").
Junmai Ginjo🍶New yeast ✨Association 601 yeast, Yamagata Prefecture, Izumihanosato🌾.
At room temperature. Aroma of maturity. My wife says it makes you want rice and pickles😅No twists and turns, but good maturity in a good way. With the head of oyakodon. On the rocks 🧊 Moderate aroma. Sweetness and acidity stand out. Matches with roast beef with bean sprouts 👍Wine-like flavor.
