Things are finally getting back to normal, and I am enjoying a chilled bottle of sake sent from Echigo-Yuzawa. It is 100% Gohyakumangoku, 14% alcohol by volume, a bit low. Today is the second day of Father's Day mode, and we are having a Western-style main course with rosé sparkling wine. My family is having cake and red wine after dinner, so I am having sake and snacks. On this business trip, I brought three four-packs of sake to Southeast Asia (just in time for duty free). (Just in time for duty free.) The people I gave them to all love sake. But it is very expensive there, so they can't drink so much sake all the time. It's a hot area, so I always bring something that tastes good chilled. This time, too, they were very happy. The Hokusetsu Junmai Daiginjo we are drinking today comes in a wooden box, so I don't have to worry about taking it overseas. It is safe because it is delicious, and everyone will be pleased. We also talked about the earthquake on New Year's Day this year. Sado Island, where Hokusetsu is located, was also affected, he said. I hope that sake lovers will spread globally in various ways.
