So this is ¥200 more than the regular Tokubetsu Honjozo. Presumably for the “Dodger” blue bottle & the English front labeling. Purchased despite my hatred of the Dodgers; once they left Brooklyn, land of my ancestors, it’s “Let’s Go Mets!” Nice basic sake though. (But fuck the Dodgers.)

Have not been here in a while. Last of summer feelings but still too hot.

Glad saved for the end. Three dimensional and complex. Interesting is best way to describe.

意気な寿し処阿部目黒店

Vinny Brooklyn

Interesting in a positive way. Will look for this again. Dry but flavorful enough for maki rolls at the end. A strong lineup at this new branch of 意気な寿し処阿部 in Kami-Osaki.

Although “Super Dry” not so much to my palate. A little more nuanced but still not much depth. All around quite good though.

First time at new Abe sushiya in Kami-Osaki (not really Meguro). Happy to see Morishima on the list. Always good!

End of Obon but we’re at home. Still too hot for summer to be over. But summer brew remains helpful. This was quite elegant.

Light & fresh, summer release (but label had April date). TGIF especially without typhoon effect (other than wind & high humidity), nice to be at home.
