After a three-drink kaku-uchi at GINZA SIX, we went to a nearby Aomori restaurant. I went for the sujiko natto donburi, which was introduced by ⁉️ Instagrammer Foreign Deb, a famous meat lover, but I knew that Aomori is famous for sake ‼️, so I had this one.
I thought it might be Tasake or Toyohai, but since I was there, I went for my first sake.
It has a gorgeous sweet rice softness and a slight elegant acidity. It has a freshness that can only be found in nama-shu.
Served with local Aomori cuisine such as suji natto donburi, Kuroishi tsuyu yakisoba, etc. 😊.

Joe, congrats on the decision.
I was wondering if I should buy this 🤔.
It looks delicious so I'll buy it next time I'm out shopping 😊.

Erin, good evening 😆 It was a gorgeous sake with a solid core, typical of Tohoku sake 😆 Please try it 😆.

Mr. Joe Good evening. I have not seen Rokune Ruby since 2020. I have not seen them again, so I am very envious. I have heard that there are many antenna stores of each prefecture in Ginza...so I am thinking of taking a walk there soon.

Joe, good morning 😃 I envy your specialty RUN&🍶 Sogapeel and I'm curious about Rokune as I've seen it a lot lately.
Plus, Aomori cuisine, as a natto lover, I'm curious about it, let me know next time 😊.

Joe-san, good morning ☀Sujiko natto donburi is pretty common for me personally, but I guess they don't do it much outside of Aomori 😳I would like to go there if I can have tsuyu yakisoba 😳.

Good morning, Mashiranoyama 😃Yes, Ginza is a treasure trove of antenna stores! 😆
And if you are looking for izakaya (Japanese style pubs), there was a maniacal bar on the first floor and basement of Shimbashi Ekimae Building No.1, a short walk from Ginza 😆.

Good morning Harry 😃Another drinking run 🤣. Rokune and Sogape are both recommended although in different directions 😊 Let's have an offline meeting in Tokyo next time with Aomori cuisine and natto as the main course! I think only Manachie-san might come 😅.

Good morning, Prince Manachy!
What! Suji natto donburi is also a local dish of Ibaraki? ⁉️ I didn't know that 🤣.
And the tsuyu yakisoba was delicious too! I'm sure this is a definite Aomori natto off-line meeting 🤣.

Joe
Mr. Harry, what a surprise! Prince Manachie was from Aomori, I'm very sorry 😅.
That's why he has that fair skin 😆.
Aomori mini offline meeting, by all means 😊.

Hi Joe, hello ☀️
I've been looking at all of these with envy...and now you have this one 😳! I've been wanting to drink Rokune's Ruby for a year now! Looks delicious - I'm jealous 💕!

Hi Pon 😊
I didn't know it was so popular here ⁉️. I looked it up and it won the Wineglass Tasty Sake Award 3 years in a row 😆.
I hope you can find it too 😊.
