Kenshin (Junmai Ginjo)
I met this bottle at a koji shop in Itoigawa on the way back from visiting Kasuga-yama Castle, the residence of Lord Kenshin, which I had longed to visit.
The taste is dignified and beautiful. Slightly sweet and full, yet with an aftertaste that quickly disappears. I savored it carefully.
It has a full-bodied sweetness like brown sugar. The aftertaste is clean and crisp, so it is not too heavy and can be easily paired with food. It is not too heavy and can be drunk easily.
Kenshin Koshitan Rei (variety of rice)
4 consecutive weeks, mainly on weekends
Every 7 stores are replaced
You can eat ramen from 28 stores
Ito Onsen Yukemuri Ramen Festival
started on the 19th
My wife and I went there on the day of the festival
and we both ate 4 bowls of ramen. ✌️
I'm planning to go alone on the 26th, the second week of the festival.
I think I will eat at least 3 bowls 😁.
This is my second Kenshin though,
Last time was Aizan so this is my first time here.
Firm mouthfeel
Relatively low sweetness
Spiciness and bitterness in the middle.
Classical flavor.
We judged it to be suitable as an in-meal drink.
Served with sashimi: ✌️
Good evening, Manta-san!
This is the perfect ramen event for Manta-san 🎵.
It reminds me of the Ramen Derby in Kyoto 🍜.
I haven't had Kenshin yet, but it would be nice to have a sake to enjoy with sashimi and seafood 😋.
Hi Manta 🐦.
It's nice to taste a lot of events of changing stores! Three cups by yourself this week 😆 Glad to see that the First Asahi is being eaten there too 😊.
Good evening, ma-ki-san ^_^
I have been looking forward to this kind of event.
I'm so glad that this event is held near here ✨.
The classical taste will match with sashimi, etc... ✌️
Good evening, Mr. Nochi ^_^
We ate from about 11:00 to past 1:00 pm on this day: ✌️
I went there without breakfast, so it was a personal brunch 😁.
Do Miso and Daiichi Asahi were delicious✨!
But the other two drinks were good too👍.
Good evening, Pon-chan ^_^
I love it when you can have several bowls in one place and the restaurant changes as the week changes ✨.
I think I can have 3 cups as it's less than in the restaurant 😁.
I don't get to Kyoto very often so I'm glad I got to eat at Daiichi Asahi 👍.
