Last month, when the mother of my eldest son's wife came and took him and his wife to Kusatsu Onsen or Karuizawa, for some reason the mother bought some sake as a gift ๐.
This brewery is basically hi-iru (fire-iru), but they decided to serve raw sake at the request of the younger generation, and in order to separate them, they decided to use the kanji character "higen" for the regular hi-iru and "hiragana" for the raw (maybe). And you don't see this one with a big "hi" very often?
In any case, this is my first time drinking this sake!
Gentle sweetness with a little sourness coming through.
Surprisingly refreshing!
I think it's easier to drink on the second day than on the first day.
Easy to drink with gentle sweetness ๐.
I think I'll drink it tomorrow, so I'll try not to drink it today.

Good morning, Takashi!
What a! ๐ฒHow much of a beloved character are you that your wife's mother would send you sake ๐โจโจ!
I've only seen Higen at Sake-no-wa, but it seems to go well with meals ๐.

Good morning, ma-ki-๐.
No, maybe he just thinks that if I send him alcohol, he will be happy! ๐คฃ But it sure is nice to be able to drink sake that I wouldn't or couldn't buy for myself.

Good morning, Takashi ๐!
It's a secret and fantastic ๐คซ but the label is in hiragana, a very interesting bottle! It's nice to get a souvenir ๐ถ of something you wouldn't normally buy for yourself!

I will try my best to drink up all the gifts I still have โโโ๐.

But not too much to drink ๐คฃ.
Tomorrow is the big day? So ๐.
