Okinawa ③ (final)
Laughter-filled trip to Okinawa with 7 high school classmates🤣.
The third day? We went from Bise Fukugi Namiki to Janguria via Walumi Ohashi Bridge 🦕.
I have a lot to say about Jangria🦖, but I'll spare you here.
At night, back in Naha, we had dinner on Kokusai-dori.
On this day, there was a member who said, "I've eaten a lot of pork, but not beef! So we went to a restaurant where we could eat beef!
Not to be outdone, a little sake 🍶.
Aizu Homare
Slightly soft and refreshing!
Surprisingly gentle
I think it's light, but it has a touch of sweetness, surprisingly nice 😋.
I ate a lot of things including Yamashiro beef steak. But Okinawan fish is delicious, but I can't remember the name 🤯.
Fourth day? On the last day, we went around Makishi Market - Nakagusuku Castle - Kaho Banta - American Village and went back home from the airport.
Okinawa in November is very comfortable with good weather (weather was good this time).
We drank, ate, and played for 3 nights and 3 days, drinking beer 🍺 everyday from noon (and of course 🤣 at night) Thanks to everyone 🥳 and thanks to those who read what seemed like a travelogue 🙇.
I'm going to change my mind and focus on work from today 😠.
Good morning, Takashi!
I could feel your enthusiasm just by looking at your trip 🎵.
I'm curious about the drama 🤣 that happened in Jangria as well as the drinks 😁✨✨✨. I'm curious about 😁✨✨
Good morning, ma-ki-San 😊.
I really enjoyed my time in Okinawa 🥰.
Jangria is not something I would recommend without giving it away, but it is fun and unfortunately I can't express it in the number of words here 😂.
Easy to drink but slightly sweet, it went well with sukiyaki. I like sake, not just this sake, because it has a pleasant aftertaste that gradually follows the flavor as you drink it. It was delicious!
Extra Edition. On the way home, I found a pack of Kitakata sake at a convenience store and bought it. It was my first time drinking sake with a straw💦It just had a strong bitter taste and I couldn't finish it. Yes, cheap sake is just as good as it should be (of course).
It was chilled in the refrigerator and served in a wine glass. I compared it with Echigozakura🌸 Junmai Daiginjo from Niigata. The aroma seems to be less intense than that of Echigo-zakura. But the taste of rice spreads in the mouth and it is sweet and easy to drink. When I warmed the glass in the palm of my hand and drank it, the sweetness increased even more. It may be too sweet for those who prefer dry sake, but it may be suitable for women.
Today we will enjoy a local sake from Fukushima Prefecture
We will enjoy Junmai Daiginjo Koku by Homare Shuzo!
The aroma is fruity with a hint of pear.
The taste is sweet at the beginning, and after that it is refreshing and delicious!
It is more refreshing than other Aizu sake. Dry type. But it also has Aizu's originality and umami. It goes well with fried food and light snacks as a mid-meal sake.
Third submission from the San Francisco Bay Area. Gassy, melon and strawberry flavors, medium dry, soft on the palate. Great with Chanterelle Croquettes with squid ink. Next time I would like to try it with tempura and rock salt.
It has a sticky mouthfeel, fruity aroma, and is so easy to drink that you wouldn't think it was 15 degrees. I chilled it, but it didn't feel very cold, so next time I'll try it with ice.
