Souvenirs from Kumamoto
Sake from Aso, which I didn't visit this time, but there, well, I bought it at the airport 😅.
I'll have it with the special coaster I got when I bought the shochu in Hitoyoshi and the mountain sea urchin and tofu I bought for snacks.
Mellow and refreshing, with good acidity and umami!
Overall, it feels light and easy to drink 🍶 Natural water from Aso.
Delicious!
Good evening, AAJI!
I thought I hadn't drank any Reizan during my trip, so I bought some!
It is popular in Kumamoto, isn't it?
I didn't know it was popular in Kumamoto, but I don't see it here very often.

The streets are very crowded today in Matsumoto Bonbon!
I managed to get to the store by weaving my way through the gaps, but maybe it's because I'm on a low-cost SIM, but the signal is not good 😢.
The first drink was Sairai!
Beautiful acidity, sourness, and sweetness spreading afterwards!
It is a beautiful sake that is refreshing and suitable for summer!
It is delicious ☺.
Postscript
Well, I've already had more than 5 or 6 glasses, but I can't check in due to bad signal!
☆☆☆☆☆
Lightly cloudy?
Not cloudy, but pithy little acidity and fresh sweetness.
It's a good sake, though it tastes like it's losing out to the mentaiko mayo I'm just picking up!
☆☆☆☆☆
As the name suggests, super hot.
Slightly bitter, a bit different from the Tengu Mai I had before.
It would have been better after the food was cooked a little more, but it's delicious!

cicada
This is also a rather sweet and full type? Somewhat matured too.
I'm late to go see Catherine because of a lively conversation with a sake-loving lady drinking beside me 😢.

Third day in Kumamoto
Tonight's destination is Katherine's BAR, so we had a quick drink at Katherine's BAR and went to Yatai Mura (food stall village).
First stop was Kuma Shochu!
The girl at the first bar recommended this place to me.
I found some sundries that I hadn't seen recently, so I ordered some!
It was too sweet and fruity, but it was too good to be served with miso tofu and roasted red beef!

Last but not least, Koro
Firm and full-bodied.
The menu says it's a medium-bodied beer, but I think it has just the slightest bit of a peculiar taste.
It's not a bad taste, it's just a good taste!
However, I'm too old to eat fried food, and I'm too full to eat a large amount of food at this kind of izakaya by myself.
☆☆☆☆☆
The second cup is Chong Kaoru.
It has a slightly aged aroma and taste, and the sweetness of the rice spreads softly and for a long time.
And yet it's surprisingly refreshing and tasty!

Second day of Kumamoto trip
Last night was full of Kuma shochu in Hitoyoshi, so tonight is sake!
Fresh and fruity impression!
It has a sweetness and is light to drink.
It is a good choice for the first drink.
Of course sake with Amakusa fish is delicious!

Yoshida Rui recommended
Not very flamboyant, classical impression sake.
The aroma seems light, but it is very drinkable.
I wonder if this is the kind of sake that Rui Yoshida likes?
I've been drinking it cold, but this is a delicious sake that has the potential to be drunk warmed.
