  1. Today is Risshun, the first day of spring in the old reckoning in Japan. There's a (modern, retailer driven, capitalist) tradition of sake breweries pressing, bottling, and shipping sake for drinking on this day—essentially, the freshest possible sake you can get outside of a brewery. It's called Risshun Asashibori, and the local participating brewery is Sakai Shuzo, Gokyo.

    This year's Junmai Ginjo is hefty and full bodied. Memories fade, but I think it's better than last year's...

    Enjoyed from a hand-blown Hagi glass tokkuri and a guinomi by Terada Teppei @teppeiterada_bizanpottery.

  3. Goodness, the latest Sake Today looks interesting...

    Huh? Why, I recognize that name! 😍
    Seeing "by Jim Rion" in print never gets old.

    It's full of other great stuff, including a lovely article on Hagiyaki by Robert Yellin, too.

    Rush out and get yours today!
