IICHIKO

Last week, I wrote the Imo-shochu, so I would like to write Mugi-shochu.

Mugi means wheat. It is said that Mugi-shochu is light and it is easy to drink it. 

The most famous Mugi-shochu is IICHIKO.

IICHIKO is said "Napoleon of a downtown area", and it is one of the best popular in Japan.

chanmery

It is X'mas today, so I introduce "Chanmery."

I don't know chanmery is sold only in Japan.

"Chanmery" makes "Chan" of champagne and "Mary" of merry Christmas the origin of a word. 

In Japan, Chanmery is usually drunk in X'mas.

However, it is difficult for major companies to enter into chanmery manufacture for a low of protecting minor companies.

I'm taking part in X'mas party tonight, and I'm going to drink a chanmery probably.

Today, I would like to introduce Japanese sake which is a little strange.

It is “Suzune” which is made by Ichinokura.

Suzune is a carbonic acid in spite of being sake.

And, this is lower alcohol than usual Japanese sake, so you can drink easier than others.
