Sake bought on a liquor store tour with Rafa papa and Nemuchi (7)
Takama Sake Shop in Ibaraki. I knew it existed, but it was far from the station, so thanks to Rafa papa, I was able to visit this time.
I think many people know them as a distributor of Genmai, but I got the impression from their website that they seem to have a strong habit, but when I went there, it was not so bad 😁.
They carry Akiga, Kawanakajima, Taiyo, Furozumi, Shinomine, Mutou, Takaten, Katanozakura, etc.
They also seem to carry Iwashimizu, but the website says they are all out of stock.
The website seems to indicate that they have had some minor Nagano sake in stock in the past. If I have good access, I'd like to check this store regularly.
I found out about this brand for the first time at the store. I had to buy it 🤣.
I was actually interested in the Genmai Omachi Shiboritate and Special Honjozo set 😅.
Low alcohol sake made with Nagano R yeast. Condensed fruity sweet-tartness. Refreshing sweet and sour sake. This label is called Mie Special and seems to be the toji's special sake. There seem to be other kinds of sake.
This one also has a 9 ticks rice polishing ratio 😁.

Good morning 😃
It's true that the store looks very brave to enter for the first time 😅.
It takes courage to enter for the first time 😅.
And here we have 9 ticks 😆.

Hello Choroki 😊
If I was alone I might not have had the courage to go in 😅.
I'm so lazy that I sometimes come to the front of the liquor store and leave without going in😅.
I got in the habit of looking at the rice polishing ratio when I buy Nagano sake🤣.

It's my first time to drink 😊.

Hello bouken, ☀️
I read it the same way as Manta 🤣There are many delicious looking Nagano sake, and the fact that you bought this one is typical bouken 👍The store owner might have been surprised that 3 people came to his store 😁.

Manta, good evening 😃.

Good evening Rafa😊.
The store looked more like a long-established Japanese sweets shop than a liquor store 😁I was relieved to see that the owner seemed like a nice guy😅.
It seems this is the only place in the Kansai area 🤔.

Good evening, bouken 🌇.
It's hard to go into a restaurant that looks peculiar 😅.
In that sense, going with someone you know is a relief 🤗
Did you not buy the "Ale⁉️ Genshiryoku Mai" ❓

Utenko is something cute 😁.
I saw them preparing to serve customers in a hurry when I parked the car 🤣.

Good evening, Mr. Chichi 😃.
It's hard to be brave just to go to a store for the first time, but it's even harder when you go into a habit 🤣It was reassuring that there was someone who had experience visiting 🤗I went through with the intention of buying Genmai at another liquor store, but I couldn't go there 😭.

I bought a bottle of Mutabu at Takama, but I didn't drink it because it was twisted 😭 it's going to a cooking sake...

Rafa, when was the production date?
Japanese>English
Rafa papa
It was March 22. I don't think it's old enough to twist...

The Machida brewery I bought it from was in Feb 22 and I could drink it normally 😅maybe it depends on the quality of the sake 😢.
