The other day, a friend of mine who came all the way from Hiroshima to Ibaraki gave me a bottle of Hiroshima sake called "Drunken Heart.
It was a sake loved by Yokoyama Taikan, the great Japanese painter who was born in Ibaraki. I felt the connection between Ibaraki and Hiroshima. I was grateful for the sake!
Incidentally, there is also a sake called "Fuji Taikan" from a sake brewery in Ibaraki that also has a connection with Yokoyama Taikan.
