The year 2024 has been turbulent since the beginning of the year, but the second half of January is already upon us. For those who are working, the New Year holidays are over; for students, the winter break is over; and for those who are preparing for entrance exams, the Common University Entrance Examination has just finished. For those of you who are taking the entrance examinations, please take good care of yourselves and do your best! I wish you all good results! As we pass the halfway point of January, it is time to start thinking about plans for February, and one of the major events in February is probably Valentine's Day. This year it is in the middle of the week, on Wednesday, February 14, 2024, so you are probably thinking about gifts for your significant other, and for those you would like to partner with in the weekend around that date. There are no set rules for gifts, but Valentine's Day in Japan is all about chocolate, and for an adult Valentine's Day, chocolate liquor is the perfect gift. That's right! This year, the craft sake store "Cland" is holding a "Valentine's Day Fair 2024," a chocolate sake festival!
