It's been a while since my last post!
It's the yellow Ride that I missed out on last year!
It seems they changed the name to Mizuchi this year...anyway, I finally bought it!
(Overjoyed!)
It's as close as I could get to the shock I got when I drank Beaumichel.
The sweetness is very strong, and the acidity is very strong, and the sweetness lingers in the aftertaste.
This is good for this time of year when it starts to get hot... yum!
The alcohol content is also quite low at 8%, which also adds to the ease of drinking!
I would definitely recommend this to sake beginners... but if you make this your standard, it's not a good idea...
Sweet and sour skiing is a must!
Amazing... delicious...
Today I had to take a break from my day job... but I can't stand it when it gets hot during the day 🤣 lol
I thought I wanted something like a clay that I can drink easily when it's hot like this ❗️... and when I looked up the tag for Champagne 🍾...?
Hmmm? ... for some reason, Gobashi "Nene" from Yamaguchi prefecture is listed as #2 even though it has only a few check-ins 😯.
I've never had it... but I remember my local liquor store (🤔) had it for some reason.
So I bought some 😆 lol
Speaking of Yamaguchi prefecture, of course Otters are well known nationwide, but the locals seem to prefer Gohashi and Ganki: 🙂↕️
Well, I'm sorry for the long preamble... but after stirring the bottle upside down a couple of times, as the warning says, it's time to serve! I opened the bottle ‼️ with caution ⚠️ so there was no blowout 💧.
It is served in a wine glass with ice 🧊.
The aroma is pretty much champagne🍾 acidity✨.
The sip has a strong sparkling pizzazz and a sweet apple 🍎 feeling low al so you can gobble it up 😍.
Apple cider🍾 might be pretty close ❗️
This one 💁 my wife was a big fan 😆.
Junmai Sake
Although the aroma is not strong before drinking, it is very tasty on the palate, with a good balance of umami, sweetness, and acidity that is also floral.
When we visited the brewery in March, the blue was still fermenting in the tanks. I had been looking forward to a bottle ever since I saw it bubbling and bubbling, and finally got a glass.
The aroma is subdued, with just a hint of green apple and grapefruit. In the mouth, a light gaseous sensation bursts forth, followed by a clean umami and a refreshing acidity. While the freshness of the sake stands out, the quality of the sake is sharp and clean, with an impressive crisp summery finish.
It has a refreshing taste that will reset your palate after a meal with fat, such as grilled meat. It is a perfect summer sake to be enjoyed chilled in the refrigerator.
Izakaya Shinkansen Modoki from Shin-Yamaguchi (2)
Hoping that no one will come next to me...
Hiroshima safe 😝.
In Okayama,,, people,,, but I usually sit 2 people, but today I sit 3 people, and the middle seat is free 😁Go for the second one! (I say second run, but it was a sandesh 🤣)
Gobashi Kamisen
This is the one I bought as a backup.
This is the first time I've had Gobashi Josen.
This one is also rather dry, I guess.
But it seems a little mellower than the Abunotsuru I just had!
Today's items

I'm a little biased, 😅I'm covered with sardines 🤣.
But, you have to have fish paste in Yamaguchi 🥳.
The side dishes from the co-op were pretty good too 😋.
Thanks again for a fun and delicious time!
Today, we close between Kyoto and Nagoya 🍶.
I even ran into Kitty on the way home...lucky day?
Hi, Takashi 😀
It looks like you had enough fun with the sake you brought back from Yamaguchi😇.
It's quite unnatural to see izakaya shinkansen and a nice situation with no other customers around 🤣.
But I'm glad you were able to drink 😀.
Good evening, Yasbay😊.
Yes, I know...
It's not possible after Corona to be so empty like on TV 🤣.
But I enjoy it while making do with the 4 hours from Shin-Yamaguchi to Shin-Yokohama because it makes me want to drink 🥳.
Good evening, Takashi 😃.
Really! You were lucky to see Hello Kitty too 😄I'm kind of glad to see you over Kyoto on the 🏮 Izakaya Shinkansen 🚄 from Shin-Yamaguchi, as if it were me: ☺️
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😊.
This bullet train was like the first time I saw it, I took the liberty of calling it lucky 🥳.
Two 300s, it was good, but still, drinking alone without conversation, the pace seems to be too fast, 😅.
Hi Takashi 🐦.
You did a good job closing the restaurant this time with a lot of food 😆👍If you had more, you wouldn't be able to get tipsy and you would have more passengers 💦.
I enjoyed your izakaya shinkansen 😊.
Hi Pon 😊
You're right, when you have 4 hours, you need to have a lot of stuff 😘.
But when there are people next to me, I don't know where to put them😅.
As for the rest, I still don't have the courage to drink from a four-pack like on TV🤣.
