酒処 丹の Dan

We decided to have a night stay at Obihiro (帯広) on our way back from Eastern Hokkaido towards Sapporo. It was really more vibrant at night here at Obihiro city that our previous other nights.
We stayed at the Obihiro Tennen Onsen Fukui Hotel, and there were many eating options around it.
After dinner, we went in search of a sake bar called 酒処 丹の. With Google map, we still had to walk round the same place a few times before pinpointing the building.



One of the "clue" was the sake labels on the wall up the stairs.



The place was managed by an American named Dan. How lucky. We were able to converse in English and learn more about some of the local sakes.




Kamikawa Taisetsu 上川大雪 (above) was one of Hokkaido sake we enjoyed. We were able to taste ginjo 純米吟醸 made from different kind of Hokkaido rice - Ginpu 吟風, Suisei 彗星, Kitashizuki きたしずく


You could also find popular premium sakes here. One example was the various labels from Aramasa新政  (Akita).
