Last night in Tokyo
On the way from the conference venue to Tokyo Station, I had dinner and wandered aimlessly on the way to my hotel,
Hikonyan and Myakmyak were 😳 by Nihombashi station.
It was an antenna store of Shiga, here in Shiga!
I found Pon-chan while browsing in the store 🧐.
I took it home with some sake 😊.
First of all, cheers to Pon-chan 🍻🍺 with kumquat!
Fruity and easy to drink!
I can't get enough of it after taking a bath !!!
After that, we had our first brand, Asakayousei!
It is a cup sake, but it has a light sweetness that makes it easy to drink 😋.
I was going to drink it in small sips, but it was empty in no time 🥰.
3. Kumana ni kokomoru from Asakayo. The mouthfeel is a bit slippery, with a sake-like flavor and sweetness, but also some fruity, with a bitter aftertaste and a bit of acidity to enjoy. Could use a little more light acidity and freshness. MIZUKAGAMI, junmai ginjo, 60%, unfiltered, raw, about 1,900 yen, Otsuka Sake Brewery, Honmachi.
Shiga souvenir #1.
It costs about 1,000 yen at Friend's Mart.
It is not sold in Osaka.
It has a fruity taste and a slight caramel taste.
It is delicious.
It is 16 degrees and has enough body.
at Naoki's (in Kyoto)
I told them I wanted something fruity, and they said they didn't have much of that, but they recommended this one to me 😊.
It has a nice aroma, acidity, sweetness and umami, and is easy to drink.
And the unique flavor of Asakayasou, or quirkiness 🤔.
It went well with the shirako ponzu vinegar. ❣️
This is my first time to try this sake, but I always forget about it because it was released early in September 😅.
I was happy to be able to drink the brand I wanted to drink!
I want to visit Hirai Shoten again!
As for the rest,
We had a freshly opened bottle of "Wataya Tokusyu Miyamanishiki"!
It has almost no aroma, a little bit of umami and acidity, and is very refreshing!
It went well with light sashimi as well as darker flavors such as amberjack.
Sanrensei Jungin Nakadori Unfiltered Nama Sake, also freshly opened!
Nice aroma, soft sweetness and umami!
It was delicious and drained off the oil from the chicken cutlet!
Hi Ponchan 😀
Asakayousei is a delicious sake in your hometown, Pon-chan 😀.
We are planning to visit the brewery as soon as possible for a walking tour😇.
Good evening, Pon 😃.
All the pictures of the entrées look delicious✨
Milt is my favorite food too 😙 I'd love to pair it with it!
Shiga sake is something I haven't studied enough about, so this will be helpful 🎵😄.
Good evening, Pon-chan.
I have the impression that I liked Minakotsukagari because I could feel the unique peculiarity of Asakayousei 😋.
Well, I haven't had Asakayasheng recently 🤔.
Thank you very much Yasubeyesan!
It's a really small brewery in the shopping arcade 😊It's close to Lake Biwa, so you can buy some and have lunch there 😉I wish there were one or two more breweries around 💦.
Hi Hanapin 🐦.
This little plate of food is the appetizer 😳as you said, you can drink a lot with just this 😆I was ready to order but I could only eat three more dishes 😂.
Hi, soumacho 🐦.
There were a number of small bowls of food that you could have if you were drinking alone 😆 The albacore is delicious - I was happy too 😋.
Shiga sake has a lot of robust flavors to go with the meal 😊.
Hi Jay & Nobby 🐦.
I'm always happy and grateful to receive these little things, wondering how many hours it would take me to make them at home 😁 You can't convert everything 😂.
Hi ma-ki-!
This place seems to be a popular izakaya and I couldn't get a reservation 😳 and I don't drink out much so it was fun!
And since I don't drink out much, it's fun! My goal is to make it my favorite place like you do 😁.
Good evening, Pon-chan.
Asameo, this is the first time I have heard of this brand. There are many kinds of Shiga sake.
The izakaya seems to have a good choice of sake and food, and is a place I would like to visit.
Good evening, Maruwa-san 🦉.
Shiga has many small breweries, so many of them are not nationally known 💦 This one is easy to drink even for Shiga sake, so I recommend it 😊If you come across it in Shiga or Kyoto, please do!
Pon.
Good evening...
Yo, yo, I can't read...💦 Unusual name for a brewery and sake 🤩I've never seen or heard of it before!
The sake is fascinating, but all the snacks lined up seem to go well with sake 🤤.
Thank you very much, Koizo!
I googled "asajio" 😊I saw that it is sparsely populated with chigaya (a kind of silver grass) 🤣.
This store was recently on Ota-san's show 😳
Good evening, Pon-chan 🌛.
I was just watching Dr. Kazuhiko Ota's show and was surprised when [Nao]-san came on 😲.
This is a restaurant I have to go to as an Ota fan and izakaya fan 🤣.
Hi Jive 🐦.
I was surprised to hear that too 😳I couldn't get a reservation before so I'm glad I was able to go before it aired 😅I'll go back when things cool down 😁.
Carbonation, transparency, acidity, fruity, strong taste
Japanese food with sweet soy sauce, well-seasoned Japanese food, Japanese-style based meat dishes, albacore
