I had never seen Okuroku in Hokkaido and did not recognize it even when I lived in Morioka.
My subordinate from Iwate bought it for me when he went back home. It has a slightly effervescent texture and a sweet and sour taste.
I can see why it is so popular.

It is a rice cider and the carbonation almost overflowed when poured into a glass. It is a cosy sake.
This is a test brew of Gagakuyo. I had high expectations since it uses white malted rice, but as expected, it has a muscat-like acidity and is like a wine. And yet it is dry.
It suits me.
Don't stop Noto's sake! The second project to support the joint brewing of Japanese sake breweries affected by the disaster 《Kinpyo Hakkoma x Tokachi》.
It is mellow yet spicy and delicious.
