Nihon syu is Japanese alchohol. The alcohlic content is 15~16%.
The name is Akagiyama.(=Mt. Akagi "yama" means mountain.)
I have introduced the "Akagi natural park" on this blog before.

Mt. Akagi is one of famous mountain in our hometown, Gunma prefecture.
Can you see 赤城山 on the label?(Japanese is sometimes written vertically.)
赤城山 means Akagi yama.(Mt. Akagi)
When you drink Nihon syu, you put on the bottle called "tokkuri" like this one.(right)
The small sake cup(left) is called "Ocyoko".
Japanese people like to drink sake with Ocyoko little by little.
Heated Nihon syu is called "Atsukan". Cold Nihon syu is called "Hiya(or Ohiya)"
Can you drink Japanese drink in your country?
Thanks for reading!
