Kansai Sake-new year party [3rd party
The third party was at Aladdin's favorite restaurant, "Sake and Otsumami Chuin Shinmachi.
I called to confirm that the restaurant could accommodate 7 people, and was told that it would be fine in the back of the restaurant.
It takes about 20 minutes to walk there, so we take a cab.
The first taxi was soon found, and a few people got into it and headed for the restaurant, but the second cab didn't seem to catch.
With a cab, I would have arrived at the store sooner, but for some reason, I arrived before the first group🤣why?
We entered the restaurant, each chose a choko (sake cup), and shared 1 gou (1 cup) among 7 people.
This place has a great selection of sake that tickles my fancy and I'm always posting about it on Instagram.
I'm in agony because I'm so excited that Aladdin is going there and I want to go.
They have a selection of sake that I don't know about and rarely drink, and it tickles me so much that it pisses me off 🤯.
Here we drank Inokashira, Sawa-no-Izumi and Raku-no-Se and the big New Year party was over 😆.
Thanks to Umaisan for the preparations, everyone who joined us, and the staff at each restaurant 🙏!
Hello Nemuchi 😃
It's rare to see you posting offline and you finished the race 😳.
I think I said Nishiohashi station and the cab dropped me off at the south side of the station, so it took quite a while to get there 🤣.
Hi Nemuchi 😀
You're all right, if you were going to chuin, I would have wanted to go with you, but I was already pretty drunk at the second meeting 🤣.
It looks like you had a great time too chuin😇.
Hi Nemuchi 😃
CHUIN serves drinks that the owner, Mr. Kawada, wants to drink, so it's rare that he misses out and there are many rare drinks: ☺️
I'm glad you had a good time 😊.
Let's join us next time when we have 🐢 or Jyushiyo or Jikin 🍶.
Good evening, bouken 🌛I tried to post a rare offline meeting, but it was a bit of a long story from the second meeting 🤣That's what happened with the cab 😳I gave the address and had it vitaed to the front of the restaurant by navi 😁.
Good evening, Yasubeyesan 🌛I was also at chuin, but I might have bothered the restaurant because of the mess... 😅I think it's best to have fun within the acceptable range since everyone was drinking a lot 😁I went back to Kyobashi to eat ramen 🤣.
Aladdin, good evening 🌛I was drunk in the restaurant and said whatever I wanted, so I might be banned 😁The owner's knowledge and choice of sake is agonizingly good, and it's frustrating because it shakes my heart 🤣I'm so glad you're a regular Aladdin 😁.
Kansai Sake-new year party ㉔
After a short cab ride, we went to Chuin-san, familiar to us from Aladdin-san's post.
Inokashira, a sake I had never heard of until now😅.
The rice used is Hitogokochi.
I think it was fresh, fruity and gently sweet 🤔.
It is a Nagano sake, but you don't see it very often, so you can't help but pick it up.
Hitogokochi is 59% junmai (pure rice), but it is quite polished. However, it is surprisingly yellow.
It was cold on the first day, so it was warmed up to 40°C. The aroma was apple with a hint of apple. The aroma is faintly apple-like. When you drink it, it has a pungent bitterness, but you can also taste a hint of fruitiness. At 45℃, the bitterness and sharpness at the end become slightly stronger. As it cools down, the apple or banana sweetness becomes stronger.
Cold sake. The aroma is slightly stronger than when heated, but only slightly. After a crisp minty nuance and a hint of apple sweetness, the rice flavor is not as strong as before, and then it turns spicy and sharp. Personally, I would drink it cold or warmed.
It is not that mellow, but this modern medium junmai is a perfect example of perfection. It can be served with food or on its own.
Opened January 21, 2024
Purchased at the brewery
Mega-umami‼️
Very clear ^ ^
Refreshingly tart like orange juice with just enough sweetness✨
I just want to drink this all the time ^ ^
It makes me so happy ❤️
Just so good...I can't describe it anymore... 🤣
Stopped by Ootsuki Sake Shop today!
and enjoyed a bottle of Inokashira Junmai Ginjo Miyamanishiki Unfiltered Unrefined Nama Sake by Kasuga Sake Brewery.
I enjoyed it!
The aroma is fruity.
The taste was dry and refreshing.
question of whether or not something is OK
First impression is like water. However,
When tasted, it is slightly effervescent and dry, with acidity, a citrus-like aroma, and a slight bitterness. It is gradually delicious. I can't stop.
Purchased at a sake brewery. Newly brewed sake.
It is located right next to Ina City Station. Free parking for an hour at the municipal parking lot. For some reason, this sake brewery makes sake that is very much to my liking.
Last Shinshu Sake 😁.
Inokashira Nice to meet you😊.
It has more bitterness and a sense of messiness than the previous sake I've had 😊.
I enjoyed a lot of sakes that were new to me this time 😁.
Sometimes it's good to be stuck in a heavy snow ❄️ ⁉️
Shinshu sake 🍶☃️ thanks for seeing me 😊.
Good evening, kan 🌙
Shinshu sake, you enjoyed a lot of things ❣️ they all look delicious, I guess it's the water 🤔I love castles, I enjoyed Matsumoto castle from different angles💕.
Good evening, kan-san 🌛I'm sorry you were stranded on a business trip 😅But I'm impressed that you enjoyed the happenings and enjoyed a variety of delicious Shinshu sake 👍The snowy Matsumoto Castle is also very elegant and beautiful.
Good evening, kan 😃.
I know it must be hard to be stranded but you had a lot of good drinks 😆 I haven't been to Nagano for a while so I wish I could go 🙄I'm jealous 🤣.
Good evening, kan 😁It was a tough time for you to be stranded 🥹.
It's nice to see that you were not discouraged and enjoyed a good drink.
It's nice to see that you enjoyed the delicious sake. I visited Matsumoto Castle in midsummer, so the snow-covered winter scenery was like a different castle. Seeing the ground ❄️❄️
It's so quaint 😁.
