Souvenir of Iwate Sour, clear, and crisp. It has a strong minerality, so it is better as a food wine than as a stand-alone drink. Good with summer vegetables. Especially good with tomatoes! Sake rice→100% Ginginga produced in Iwate Prefecture Polishing ratio→50 Alcohol content: 14 to 15 degrees Celsius Sake degree→+9 Amino acidity→0.5 Acidity→1.7 Yeast → Association 7

No photo due to tasting at a liquor store. I only drank it chilled, but it was fruity and slightly gassy. It is a bit young and has a strong bitterness at the end. Easy to drink and tasty, but not enough. Not really suitable for warming up. It would go well with white meat sashimi and other crispy food. It's like a sake from the north.

Kinshicho Lunchtime Drinking Again (2) Before ordering the next bottle, I looked back at my post on Sake-no-wa to see what I had ordered on my previous visit 🤔 and found it was Fuyu-wata from Wataya 🤗I found a different seasonal Haru-wata on the menu this time, so I ordered that one for the second bottle! It had a cute label and was a delicious sake with a soft sweetness and gentle acidity 😋The food at this restaurant goes well with sake, so I'll drink it right away😅. The third bottle was a gut instinct choice because Nobby likes Miyamanishiki! This is "Yoemon" which is our first sake series. ‼️ For us, the name "Yoemon" might sound more familiar than "Doraemon" 😆. It looks dry, but is it slightly sweet? It looks dry, but it is slightly sweet, and then the sourness comes in afterwards 😚. But you know, since we are drinking outside in a quiet space, we will savor it much more slowly than usual 😉 while acting out the atmosphere of an elegant couple having a lunchtime drink 😌. ☺️ By the way, this restaurant opens at 1pm, but we arrived at Kinshicho station after 12pm because we were feeling ahead 😆 We went to IMADEYA to see art for a while to kill time 🖼️ and got Okuroku which we were interested in 👍. To be continued

Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😀. I miss Kinshicho as I stayed there for a series of nights during a trip to Tokyo a few years ago. Super dry and elegant lunchtime drinking for a couple... It's the best 👍.

Good morning, Jay & Nobby 😀 Getting some great sake and food for a lunchtime drink... enviable time 😇. Lately, I've managed to empty my sake at home, so I don't have any sake with good food at the restaurant 🤣.

Japanese>English

Hi N.E. 😃 I like to relax for a lunchtime drink 🤗. It's a good restaurant! It's a popular restaurant and it seems you should make a reservation at night: ‼️

Hi Nao888😃 I can't read it 😅 my main purpose is to visit the grave and to visit my father! It's never the main purpose of daytime drinking 🙄 That's not what I'm saying 🤣. Chucky Okuroku lucky ✌️

Hi soumacho 😃 For us, Kinshicho = drinking out 😆 Dry food goes well with this dish 😋.

Hi Yasbay 😃 It was really nice, luxurious and blissful ☺️ For you, Yasbaye, a home party where you bring your own food 🥳 or something like that would be great 😆.

At the Sea Gohan Shimakana. Finally, a special junmai Kame-no-o from Toriyoemon. 60% polished rice. I was already quite drunk and drank without knowing what Kame-no-o was like! 😁. No, really, meeting for the first time in a long time is three times better than meeting for the first time in a long time because of the conversation! 👍 As expected, my partner had to play golf the next day, so we cut it off at 2:30, but let's have another drink! So we parted with a lot of excitement, including the search for the next restaurant. The fourth photo is a candy called "Oseiame" from a confectionery shop called Nagasawaya in Shinmei-cho, Morioka City. It was a gift from my partner. When I typed in "Ouseiame," it was converted correctly, so it seems to be a quite famous confectionery. So I ate it and was surprised to find that it was not sweet! It is the image of Okayama's millet dumplings, which are not sweet. A Google search for the store revealed that it was a small store that probably only sells these sweets. But the taste is good enough to make a business out of it. Thanks for the treat! Thank you 🙋

At the Sea Gohan Shimakana. Then, special junmai Bizen Omachi from Toriyoemon It is 70% polished rice, and I guess they want us to feel more Omachi-like characteristics, but as I was getting drunk, I could not feel its delicacy 😱. But I can't feel the delicacy of it as I'm getting drunk 😱. When I was chomping down on the fried food, my wife checked me out and said, "You're moving too fast! I got a stern check from my wife 😱. No, the food is delicious and the choice of drinks is great! 😁 In no time at all, the contents of one mouthful were gone! Very delicious! 🎉

At the Sea Gohan Shimakana. Next, the owner brought out three kinds of Toru Yoemon. Please compare them! He said. 😄 Well, thank you very much. I'll take it from the right right away! 👍 This special junmai sake is made with Miyamanishiki from Iwate prefecture and polished to 55%. The first sip will fill your mouth from the acidity typical of Miyamanishiki. 🎉 After that, it becomes soft, sweet and delicious. Mmmm, delicious! Tomorrow is my farewell golf game..." and the other party sipped on their sake cups. It was very delicious! Thank you so much 🎉

Good evening, Tomoyuki Kumagai. I always look forward to your information on Morioka and Iwate area. I am interested in "Umi Gohan Shimaka". I would like to visit there when I have a chance to go to Morioka.

Japanese>English

Good evening, hoshiaki! I'm sorry to hear that 🙋. It is a little far from the station, but quite popular. We stock a variety of sake, not only local, and the food is just delicious. Please visit us! 👍

Post #477. Weak grapefruit type aroma and acidity. It has a strong sake quality, yet it has a light and refreshing taste, which is very strange. The umami is not strong when you drink it, but it leaves a strange aftertaste that lingers for a while. It is a unique sake that is beyond my imagination. Compatibility with food Scallop sashimi◯++. Grilled mackerel grilled with mirin mirin Tofu with sweet bean curd Sasa-kamama (bamboo shoots) Fat+. Personal preference★★★★☆

Junmai Ginjo🍶Unfiltered Hiyoroshi✨Akizakura🌸Iwate Ginga🌾. Iwate-Akita-Yamagata-Yuri Kogen Railway Journey🚃Day 1 Second glass of Badalone (really third 😅 as I'm also drinking a cider). Toru Yoemon drink comparison 😆. Hiyoroshi, as expected, has a calm taste. It's similar in direction to the special junmai nama sake, but this one has a more gentle taste 😌. Sanriku pike with autumn eggplant pesto 😋The fatty, huge pike is dried to remove excess water. The skin is cooked properly and the flesh is rare. I'll be back soon! Badalone@Hanamaki 20241003

Special Junmai 🍶Non-filtered raw sake ✨Directly Kumi, Finish #12 Miyamanishiki from Iwate Prefecture🌾. Iwate-Akita-Yamagata-Yuri Kogen Railway Journey🚃Day 1✨. The first night of the trip was spent at the famous Italian restaurant Badalone in Hanamaki 🍽️ A banner in front of Hanamaki station celebrating Otani's 50-50 achievement 😆. Fresh✨Sweet and sour. A little grassy but with a darker fruitiness. Gentle but strong and rich with a rice feel. I had a sweetfish from Toyosawa river, between confit and fried, with a salty taste.

Sake to Kotobuki (酒ト壽)

Forgot one thing! Another sake given to me by the customer next door! A clean, fresh taste with a sharp aftertaste 🚿. The neighbor also gave me some crustaceans and I really appreciate it... It's great to have a restaurant where customers are close to each other👍 I'll post the second and subsequent drinks later, as it would take too much shadowbanning to post all at once!

The gasiness, acidity, and alcohol give it a more crisp, super-dry taste. Light and refreshing on the palate.
