I found this sake that I was curious about but passed up at Mishina the day before 💡.
Let's have it!
Another brand from the sake brewery that brews Tazake!
I used to get Ginkan in Aomori and Sapporo!
It used to have a blue label, but it looks like they changed it!
When stirred slowly, it has a shwashy feeling!
Fresh and tasty sake 🍶!
It's hard to decide which one to choose later today 😩!

I can now eat dumplings even at 38!

They are seasoned, so please eat them without soy sauce, etc.
Except for the cold storage, I found a yellow/golden Houou Mita!
It's raw sake!
Let's try this!
I've had many Hououmida, but this is my first!
It has a pineapple taste!
Delicious!
The freshly baked dumplings are also delicious!

It's the first time I've been here since they switched from tuna to meat and dumplings!
But I still ordered sashimi!

What a surprise to discover Nomiho on this day!
I guess we'll start with this!
Junmai Ginjyo Senbon Nishiki Hi-ire since we had it at Kamata with Mr. Bec!
We've had a lot of Senbon-Nishiki in the past, including unfiltered raw sake!
I wonder how they can make it taste as good as the previous day's Aizan!

After paying the bill, I was sipping on my few remaining drinks when the assistant manager? The assistant manager gave me a free ☺️ service as there were only a few drinks left 😄.
It's a good place to come back.
When I was about to pay the bill after finishing the all-you-can-drink service, the manager came to see me.
He asked us to have either Jikin Yamada-Nishiki or Senbon-Nishiki since we had come on such short notice.
He asked me to choose either Jikin's Yamada-Nishiki or Senbon-Nishiki.
I knew it was the Yamadanishiki!
Thank you very much 😊.
It was my first time to try Jikin's Mie Yamada-Nishiki!
He poured it into a golden sake cup!
Wow, it's so good!
The aroma and taste is number one tonight ☝️
I was able to introduce an acquaintance to the manager!
I'm so happy!
Please come with your wife!
It's getting cooler at night in Sapporo!

Izumo Fuji is a brand that debuted in Sapporo and Ulin.
Since then, we have been consistently encountering this brand.

I think it goes well with gyoza (dumplings).

This is my first time to try Aizan!
This one also has a nice aroma and is very satisfying in the mouth!
Bonjiri with salt and tsukune!

This time, it is a black label hiyaoroshi.

Reunited with an acquaintance living in Sapporo for the first time in a year and had an evening party!
Last time we had a great dinner at Fukurokuju-san!
So this time I bought some Haneda Airport exclusive sweets for his wife!
Thank you very much for last time 😊.
Well, this time we are with you here, SHIGI38
Full house again today 🈵.
We ordered 1 hour all-you-can-drink at the counter in the back ⏳.
The sake selection was left to me and I had the same one as my friend!
We confirmed many good sakes today!

The one I've had so far was a rather unusual, carnivorous Junmai sake, so I thought I'd give it a try.
It was a delicious dry sake with a medium finish.
It's almost the end of the all-you-can-drink extension!
We both went to take a good look in the cold storage to see which one we were going to drink 🫣.

If so, I recommended two kinds of Koei Chrysanthemum
