ITTEKI (ICHI-GURUENE) JYUWARI KOJI SHU vol.0-3 HAKUYOYA
I had a cup of "ITTEKI (Ichigure)"!
Aroma like lactic acid bacteria, or perhaps a pilchard!
It has a full-bodied sweetness and a little sourness.
It seems to be rich in amino acids, and you can taste that flavor when you drink it.
It was delicious too😊.

Kita no Nishiki Kinenkan 30th Anniversary Label
I received this as a gift from a person at work who is from Hokkaido😊.
Thanks 🙏.
The logo on the box is cute while also having a retro feel!
The taste is delicious, with just the right amount of sharpness, sweetness and sourness 🌸.
After a few days, the sharpness mellows out and the flavor is more easily matched with food!

Drawing-logic label.
You have to read the QR code on the back and solve the riddle to find out the specs such as the rice used to make it?
The shopkeeper couldn't tell the difference between Hatena 1 and 2 either, so I bought 2 based on the color of the label😊.
The taste is of course delicious and to my liking!
(I don't know where to go with that 😆)
The result of solving the riddle was a wreck 🙁 crying

Yamazui by Yanagisawa Forestry Co.
We happened to meet a sake brewer at a souvenir shop at Kappa Bridge in Kamikochi, Tokyo, tasting and selling this 🌸.
The company, which runs a forestry business in Matsumoto, Shinshu, expresses the blessings of the mountains of the year in their sake.
Thankfully, we will have some!
The aroma is clean and refreshing, like a perfumed pear.
When you drink it, you can feel the minerality in your soft mouth 🍶 Not too sweet, not too spicy, but refreshing and delicious. ❗️
The third photo is wood chips given to us by the brewery. The wood smells really good!

Took the day off today and went to the school in the morning to pick up my child's potted eggplant plant,
(Parents must take them home...)
Then, I ended up sneaking home to work...
I decided I had to drink sake, since I was going to be there,
So, I decided to go to a nearby restaurant where I could drink sake...
I went to a restaurant in the neighborhood and had a glass of Hachikaizan Uonuma, which is apparently only available at restaurants!
The aroma is a mixture of red grape sweetness and sourness.
The taste is easy to drink, with a good balance of sweetness and bitterness 😊.
I'm missing Niigata a little bit, as I'm always looking for Niigata brands!
