Nigorizake (muddled sake) from the former village of Sumon (now part of Uonuma City).
Snow of Morimon
It has a delicious rice flavor, sweetness, and a soothing taste that increases when heated.
I have a friend from Morimon Village who was a classmate of mine in high school, and while he wasn't much of a drinker in high school, he has become quite a drinker since he started working.
He doesn't pay attention to the trendy sake, but he loves to drink the local "Tamaflavor", and he drinks it heated even in summer.
My friend moves around Niigata Prefecture for work, and when he is in Itoigawa, he drinks Kenshin.
When he is in Itoigawa, he drinks Kenshin, and when he is in Niigata City, he drinks Tsuru no Tomo.
When he is in Murakami, he drinks Taiyomori and Seharihatsuru.
I've been enjoying them in local pubs and at night, and this is exactly what I like about Echigo's sake.
I once had a drink with a friend who is a sake drinker in the Niigata Station area when I was there on a business trip.
In total, we may have drunk more than one bottle per person.
This is a memory of drinking a lot.
