I usually only write my impressions of home drinking, but this one is limited to restaurants, so it's been a while since I've written an extra 🍶.
Today I celebrated the great success of a project I was involved in from the beginning of this year until recently, and I had a lunchtime drinking party by myself 🍶.
Here's a piece I saw on that occasion 🍶.
As a Saku drinker, there was no choice not to drink it, so I had it as my first drink 😁.
Fruity but very light and not alcoholic 🤔.
This lightness is very suitable for a toast 🤔.
After drinking this, I was even more hungry and ready for battle 😁.
Fourth glass, I have had Niimasa several times, but this was my first time to drink No.6.
It had a perfectly balanced sweet and sour taste and a gaseous sensation reminiscent of champagne.
Sake that sells well tastes good, after all,
The third drink, Checkin' in Aichi, is a cracker.
It is easy to drink and delicious with a gorgeous, juicy sweetness. 🙆♂️
It seems that this brewery was founded 333 years ago this year and this is the commemorative label. The two hares label is very fashionable 😎.
The second cup is Isobojimai.
The sweet aroma gives the sake a refined taste with no clutter🍶.
I think it tastes similar to Kuroryu.
Next time I drink it, I would like to have it with seafood from Shizuoka! LOL!
Eel with a friend.
This was my first time to try Kikuhime, and it is a sweet and gentle nigori sake 🍶.
It has a good balance of flavors and is easily accepted by beginners. 🙆♂️
The fifth and last glass was a Kouji nama-shu.
Kouko was also a brand I had never had before, but it tasted fruity and sweet, like a stable, easy-drinking nama-shu. 🙆♂️
Unagidani has a great selection of sake, but the food, including the umaki, is also really good. We will be back again!
Good evening, Mr. Tatsu 😃
Shinsei, Kezura, Nichinichi, Ryujinmaru and now Koshijime 😍Great choice of sake 😋.
Sake for a pre-birthday celebration! What a good girlfriend you have 🥹Thanks 🤗
The fourth drink was a hard-to-find brand, Ryujinmaru from Wakayama.
It was my first time to drink it, and it was a classic one with a mild bitterness.
It was delicious, but maybe too young for my childish taste buds 🤣.
I heard that Ryujinmaru tastes good when heated, so next time I would like to try it with heated sake.
The third cup was Nichinichi from Fushimi.
This is the second time I've had Nichinichi, and again it is very tasty!
It has a citrusy sourness and sweetness like grapefruit, but it's my personal No. 1 sake in Kyoto 👏👏👏👏.
The second drink was another famous sake, Collage.
The first one was sweet and fruity, but the second one had a tangy aftertaste.
It tasted a little different from what I expected, but of course it was delicious. 🙆♂️
It's been a long time since I've been to Unaginodani.
My birthday is coming up and my girlfriend is buying me a drink, so I chose this restaurant.
There are a lot of good sake here, lol.
We started with Shinmasa's New Year Junmai Shiboritate.
It has a dragon on it for the year of the dragon 🐉.
The aroma and taste were surprisingly catchy, sweet and sour, and the aftertaste was so delicious that I could not help but laugh.
As expected of Shinsei.
The last of the sake we drank at the offline meeting.
It was for heating sake but at room temperature. I don't remember who ordered this one either😅.
It's a junmai sake that's been aged in tanks for a year.
The product introduction and reviews suggest that it's best served heated, but I thought it was full-bodied and drinkable at room temperature.
I don't think I'll get tired of drinking it.
Even Rafa took off his tank topper for a commemorative photo 🤣.
I was supposed to take Noodle-chan back to the hotel with Uma-san and go home... but I missed the last train because I chose the wrong route home 😭.
I would normally consider staying overnight or taking a cab 🏨, but for some reason I decided to go home and walked from Minamimorimachi to Amagasaki 😇
The fourth picture is a night view of Osaka taken on the Yodo River because I had no time to walk 🙄.
It took me 3 hours to get home, but thank you to everyone who sent me a line even though it was late 🙏.
I could have taken a quicker route home, but I took the long way around considering security 😅.
I didn't sober up too much after all that walking 🤣.
bouken, Hi 🌀Thanks for the offline post & good job 🙇 Walking home in 3 hours after drinking is pretty amazing 😳I think it was Sakeran who ordered the drinks here 🍶.
Thanks for completing your offline post, bouken 😊.
And more tank toppers 🤣.
It was really tough going home 😰I'm relieved you made it home safely😊and you drank a lot 😆 proof that you had fun 😉👍
Hi bouken😊
We drank the same sake 🍶/ it's rich and delicious even at room temperature ✨.
I enjoyed watching the "tank topper gathering" 🤣 Beautiful night view of Osaka 🌃
Good evening, Ace 😃.
I think there will be more tank toppers only when Noodle-chan comes to Osaka in the future 🤣I left without stopping along the way, but it took longer than expected💦.
Good evening, Nemuchi.
I've walked home to sober up 😅I've walked home in the past to sober up, but this is the first time I've walked this far and I didn't sober up 🤣 so I guess that means that Chrysanthemum Princess is Maru?
Good evening, Pon-chan😃I did my best to finish my post early since Pon-chan is not here this time 😀.
Sorry for the late hour that day 💦.
Next time I'll join you in 🎽 and I'm sure you'll enjoy the party 🤣.
Good evening, Mr. Aaru Sake😃.
I see you drank this drink 🤗It was at the end of the day and I have a faint memory of it but I could feel the richness 😋.
I took this picture because I don't usually walk around and see it 😀 in 20-30 years it's become a skyscraper 😳.
I don't know who asked for it, but I drank it as well as Kikuhime.
According to the Yajima Sake Brewery's website, the rice is Miyamanishiki and Toyonishiki.
I didn't find it as spicy as the +12 strength, but I thought it was a sharp sake.
The last sake I ordered was Nabeshima, but I was given Kikuhime to try.
I don't remember exactly, but I wonder if Mr. Sakeran was drinking it.
It has a strong aroma of maturity, and even after drinking it, it has a strong sense of maturity. It has a little bit of complexity.
I didn't know that Kikuhime also produces fast brewing because I have an image of Yamahai.
At the after-party, I learned that Sakairan-san is left-handed, and that there are a lot of left-handed people including myself.
I believe Pon-chan is also left-handed, so the Kansai sake brewery has a high percentage of southpaws 😊.
There may be others still out there 🧐.
Good evening, bouken😊.
Yes, I'm left-handed too😁Rafa, you are too! I'm surprised at the high percentage of left-handed people 😳I think it was 1 in 10 🤔.
Good evening, bouken😄It's nice to drink sake that you didn't order yourself, but was recommended to you by a drinking buddy 🍶But I didn't know there were that many left-handed people 😳It's kind of cool and I admire it. ☺️
Good evening, Pon-chan.
I didn't know that you were left-handed 😳I didn't know that 😅I may have just forgotten 🙄It's quite a large percentage for 1 in 10 people 😳.
Good evening, Aladdin 😃.
I've had a few more after this, but I don't even remember who ordered them 🤣.
I'm not that lucky to be left-handed 😅.
My hands get black when I write with a pencil 🤣.
It's bursting with Aiyama-ness. Full impact?
It is fire-brewed, but it is sweet and tasty with a pleasant acidity.
It must have had a gaseous taste when it was freshly opened.
Nabeshima was definitely better than Aizan and Aozora, which I drank on the same day.
Umaisan was also wearing a sleeveless dress, so it was practically a tank topper 🤣.
When it comes to female tank toppers
Sigourney Weaver
Linda Hamilton
Milla Jovovich
Michelle Rodriguez
I think these are the ones 🤔
All cool action actors 😆.
I personally think Jennifer Garner looked good in a tank top. Minor though.
Good evening, Choroki 😃.
It's a social work dealing with a real person 😆.
Unexpectedly astringent choice 🤣.
The cami is also sleeveless, so I think a tank top would be fine 🤣.
