Difficult to Read Kanji of Japanese Sake Name

Are you good at reading Kanji?

Even Japanese people sometimes feel difficult to read kanji names of Japanese sake. Japanese sake names often have difficult kanji.

Here is examples of it. This picture is a restaurant menu that I took last weekend.


I think most Japanese people cannot read the two sake names.

Here is the answer. The first one is "Kariho Rokusyu". The second one is "Jurakudai".



If you want to order a sake at a restaurant which you cannot read names like the examples above, you just have to point the menu and say "Please, this." to a restaurant staff.

I could not read both of them but could ordered with the method. Of course, both of them tasted good!


Thank you.
