School Trip for Adults #8
We finally entered Kochi Prefecture
To Shimantogawa City via Cape Ashizuri
While looking at John Mann and the sunken bridge
At night, recommended bonito seared with salt tataki,
tempura of green mackerel, fried long-hand shrimps, etc.
and local sake!
Fujimusume's Shimanto no Kaze (Shimanto Wind) goes perfectly with the bonito!
The driving pilgrimage ends at #38 Kongofukuji Temple.
About 60% of the way through, Kochi is the longest and hardest part!
I'll do my best 😁.
Good evening, Harry 🌆.
When I visited that sunken bridge, there was a lot of heavy machinery in the river during civil works 😢.
Already halfway there, isn't it great 😆.
Keep up the good work 😄.
Good evening, Harry 😃.
It sounds like things are going well, but Kochi is the hardest part 💦 Bonito is good, but the Shimanto River's produce seems to go perfectly with the local sake again 😋.
Good luck with the remaining half of the tour ‼️ 👋
Good morning, Jainobi 😃.
I am back in Tokushima prefecture after a hard day in Kochi, it is the last spurt. We had some earthquakes, but I hope to finish the race 😊.
Sake from a brewery owned by a friend of mine in Shimanto, Japan.
It is dry with a strong mineral taste and acidity. It has a punch. As you get used to the punch, the umami sweetness of the rice can be seen in the depths of the flavor.

Second day of Kochi Night. The cab driver told me that Hirome is good, but for bonito, I should go to Matsuri Jaya. He advised me to go to Matsuri Jaya for bonito, as it has a good selection of alcohol. So we went to Matsuri Jaya. At first, we started out with regular sake, just like a normal drinking party in Kochi. The staff at the restaurant recommended various temperatures for drinking. The first sake is Fujimusume, which I have never tried before. Slightly spicy and umami-guchi (flavorful), it was a perfect match for the thickly sliced salt cod roe. The special sake cup is also cute! But from here, I sank into the swamp of Kochi sake.

The first sip was light. The impression changed when I paired it with bonito tataki, which gave it a deeper flavor and a hint of sourness.
Get it at "Marugoto Kochi" in Ginza, Tokyo❗️.
I had never heard of this brand before, but it was delicious ❣️.
The rice used was something from Kochi Prefecture.
It has a fresh citrusy taste like a fresh sake, with a rich mouthfeel, but it goes down smoothly.
The aftertaste is clean and crisp.
If I had to say something, I would say that I would like a little more sweetness, but it is just right for light drinking.
