Today is the Mito Komon Festival. Sake goes well with Japanese festivals. Local Mito sake, one of a kind. If you bring your own trout, it's only 300 yen, which is cheap!
Another Noto sake received through the crowdfunding of "Don't Stop Sake from Noto.
This is also a collaboration sake from Shirafuji Sake Brewery in Wajima, Ishikawa Prefecture and Yoshida Sake Brewery in Fukui Prefecture, Okunoto's Shirakiku #Eiheiji Hakuryu.
Now there is also a second phase of the Kurafan project, and of course we supported this one too.
Don't stop #Noto sake!
I just received a bottle of Noto sake that I supported through crowdfunding.
As a sake lover, I want to support Noto sake, and this is a collaboration between Shirafuji Sake Brewery in Wajima, Ishikawa Prefecture and Yoshida Sake Brewery in Fukui Prefecture.
By the way, now the second phase of the Kurafan project has started. Of course, we have already supported this one too.
#Don't stop Noto's sake!
The other day, a friend of mine who came all the way from Hiroshima to Ibaraki gave me a bottle of Hiroshima sake called "Drunken Heart.
It was a sake loved by Yokoyama Taikan, the great Japanese painter who was born in Ibaraki. I felt the connection between Ibaraki and Hiroshima. I was grateful for the sake!
Incidentally, there is also a sake called "Fuji Taikan" from a sake brewery in Ibaraki that also has a connection with Yokoyama Taikan.
I bought this Toyama sake, Wakatsuru, when I visited Toyama a while ago. It was labeled for the Hokuriku Shinkansen line, which was extended to Tsuruga last weekend.
I bought this sake, Hokuyo, from Uozu, Toyama Prefecture, when I was in Toyama last week.
I bought it because it was labeled for Noto Peninsula Earthquake Reconstruction Support.
Drink and support.
At a recent Kaku-uchi festival held in Ueno Park, I bought some sake from Ishikawa Prefecture. Takehaha (Chikka) from Noto Town, Ishikawa Prefecture.
It is not easy to support them directly, so we can only support them by drinking.
I was having a drink at a store in the Tokyo Station eki-naka and found a sake from Ishikawa Prefecture. Ishikawa Prefecture is going through a hard time right now, but we are supporting them!
The sake that I won in the lottery on the last Suigun Line Sake Brewery Kiko ride is "Reisui Yamo" from Iekucho Honten. We will gratefully partake of it.
A friend of mine gave me a bottle of "Taikan", a Japanese sake from Yamanashi.
This is not the first time I have tasted Yamanashi sake, but since Yamanashi was the last remaining sake in the "Sake-no-wa" series, this completes the list for all of Japan!
We will be serving shiboritate junmai ginjo-shu, which we bought at the Takeyoshi Shuzo brewery in Yuki City, which we visited last week on the Mito Line local sake train, with the Kasama-yaki cups that we also received on the same train.
