Vinny Brooklyn
As with the glass earlier from Miyagi, it’s been a while since I had something from Nagano. A solid, balanced JG that I could drink all night.
Vinny Brooklyn
Crisp and sharp, both in a good way. Well made.
Vinny Brooklyn
Second of the evening. It being a Friday in Lent a fish and vegetable dinner; sake is rice (mostly) so I’m onsides with the Roman Church. This one had one pasteurization and this some freshness.
Vinny Brooklyn
My wife had it atsukan and I had it sumitai at the end of the evening. While pleasant both ways, maybe hot is better.
Vinny Brooklyn
One of a pair purchased at the Akita antenna shop in the Shinagawa Prince Keikyu complex. 星あかり」100%.
Snow (& thunder) this morning. Ohtani home run at night. What a time to be alive!
Vinny Brooklyn
Collaboration with Ryumeikan hotel company (1899 was year of hotel founding); gift from Brother-in-Law. Completely forgot to upload but saw trying to clear out pictures from phone!
Vinny Brooklyn
A one cup, having had a 300ml before. No expectations even though other bottling are significant Sado Island/Niigata brands. This was quite good, for what it was.
Vinny Brooklyn
Hard to believe as of today sakura will in Tokyo in 2 weeks. But happy to be home & warm at home tonight. Nicely balanced but otherwise not special.
Vinny Brooklyn
Last at 鮨いがらし (4 ichigo is my max at restaurants). Forgot to take picture! But all good. 👍
Vinny Brooklyn
Third at 鮨 いがらし. Always like the Nama.
Vinny Brooklyn
Second of the night at 鮨 いがらし. A little more full bodied, given from Aomori.
Vinny Brooklyn
At 鮨 いがらし in Shirokane. Having some I haven’t had before. First tonight, always want to try from Fukushima. This is good.
Vinny Brooklyn
Cannot believe February is over. This, a little spritzy, a little alcoholic.
Vinny Brooklyn
Interesting contrast of Nakano at home vs. Kyoto after visit. Given the cold weather (& lots of snow today in Kyoto), maybe Nagano is the winner for the moment.
Vinny Brooklyn
Guessing where I was when drinking this. Purchased at Kyoto Station and riding back to Tokyo.
Vinny Brooklyn
Last and splendid.
Vinny Brooklyn
Finally a local sake !
Vinny Brooklyn
Surprised this Kyoto restaurant has so many Shizuoka sake. But this also very good.
Vinny Brooklyn
Bottled today in Shizuoka and drunk tonight at dinner in Kyoto. WOW.
