Hype 3.0 Takanohana gets a sake brand. A brewery in Yokote, Akita, changed its name from Bizen shuzou honten 備前酒造本店 to that of its main brand Dainagawa and restarts with Takanohana as their "cheerleader". The new brand was presented yesterday at the inauguration party, which also had Taka's cheerleader inauguration ceremony. http://www.sakigake.jp/news/article/20190414AK0005/

Kokushu (national sake) Takanohana 國酒 貴乃花 comes in 2 varieties, made from differently polished Akita Komachi rice. 720ml, one for 12 000 and one for 8000 yen (+tax).

The blue writing looks like 'Slowly' and 'Surely' as for the 'Wolf eyes' of Hokkaido...I'm with Benihana on that one

Thank you for writing in. It was written, and well known, that the glare in Chiyonofuji’s  eyes penetrated his opponents psyche, and defeated most, before the match even started. So we wanted to tap into the mind games and intensity in his eyes. The way he would strike fear with his eyes. We were just drawing similarities with Wolf characteristics and him being known as the Wolf. Hopefully you can see what we were aiming to accomplish. Thank you for reaching out.

We're in year 1 of Reiwa and of the nationwide Asanoyama hype (in Toyama the hype is years old already). Kototsurugi designed Asanoyama note books, this time for Showa Note Co., Ltd., in 3 varieties.

Maybe I missed it the last 2 years, maybe it's after 3 years again. The Mitakeumi stamp set for ozeki promotion goes on sale on July 7th in Nagano, on the 15th on the web, with a tenugui towel instead of the clear file and thus 2500 yen (also 84 yen for 1 stamp now) - limited to 2500 sets. https://www.post.japanpost.jp/kitte_hagaki/stamp/frame/detail.php?id=2292
