Timeline
酒屋 巡First time to go to Ramen Izakaya in a long time.
It's busy and we have no money.
Drinking outside is expensive, drinking at home is expensive (and we are suspected of buying too much Tsumami and sake).
What the hell is going on in Japan!
I wish my salary would go up....
La Jomon, which the regular next to me was drinking.
If the owner was tasting it while he was drinking next to me, I would be curious about it.
This is a company that does interesting things.
They have a private brand, so they only decide on a name and make a different sake for each vat (or brewery?). (or brewery by brewery?). They only decide on a name and ask each brewer to make a different sake.
The black label "Rajomon" is made by a company called Shuho Brewery.
Junmai Nama-shu (Junmai Nama-shu).
The first sip is fruity, like white wine.
It has a moderate acidity and astringency.
It has a freshness that can only be found in nama-shu.
It has a slight hint of koji (mold) that is different from that of wine.
It would probably taste even better if it were chilled to a crisp...but that's the point.
I think it is a taste that is easy to get used to for those in the wine world.
The next door and the one next to it are regulars.
Some of them are from overseas, and I don't have to worry about having a snack (I know, I'll get angry).
Third drink in a long line of writing.
Now, I wonder if I can write (or drink) the next one. Gassanの試み2023第二章 innovation2023 黃麹四段純米吟醸 酒屋 巡I'm soooo tipsy, 4th glass of sake lol
I also had some heated sake, and picked up a few snacks.
...Unfortunately, I was married (so far) from that thing... oya oya oya?
I'll make love to you and drink it.......
I love the taste of rice.
I love it!
It also has a slight ginjo aroma and astringent taste....which is natural since it's a ginjo.
Wow, this is a sake that can be enjoyed at all temperatures.
What is it? It has a sake-like and watery taste, but it doesn't seem too thin.
Of course, the low alcohol content may have something to do with it, but it is still 13 degrees.
Swiss-ike...dangerous, isn't it?
Redeikira~...oh?
Now that I've finished eating the two wings, I think I'll have some noodles to finish off the meal, and then head home.
...Oh, neither the Satte nor the Tebasaki wings are on the menu, just to be sure...hmm? I'm not even sure if it's on.... ←I'm drunk. 酒屋 巡The second sake of the day, Yamagata Masamune Junmai Ginjo Kinpaku Sake.
...I wonder what volume of Mimashinbo it was...was it the magical power of the earthenware pot...it was a story about a suppon...I think it was in the 10 volume range (to be added later, volume 3, episode 3, the power of the earthenware pot...besides itayama... (It was a story about the president...).
He said money doesn't affect the taste.
It's different to be thankful for it.
Well, it certainly doesn't affect the taste, but it does affect the presentation.
The Japanese enjoy (for better or for worse) the feeling of being "mede-tai," a kind of "celebrated fish".
I'll check the comics on my tablet on the train on the way home.
Junmai Ginjo.
It has a strong rice flavor, but it's still a ginjo.
It has a slight fruity taste and a bit of Sawan aftertaste.
But I think this one makes a better snack.
Well, after the shellfish...I guess I'll have to go with the chicken wings!
The sister next to my left? (Younger?)
Two skewers and a yuzu soda.
I also had a bowl of ramen. Sipping the soup.
They ate and drank a lot. ...no room for treats, lol!
Independence and autonomy are important for human health.
Nantenne.
The new guy who is just getting up made a lively old man gag. I'm not sure if it's a joke or not, but it's a good one.
It's a story about an old man in the Showa era. 酒屋 巡Long time no post.
Happy New Year m(_ _ _)m
Since the beginning of the year, there has been a lot of noise and crabs.
I would like to express my deepest sympathy to the people in the affected areas.
...Is my Japanese funny...?
Today, I went to my usual ramen shop as usual.
It's time to explore other places...but it's hard to find a comfortable place to eat.
The first sake of the day!
Etchu Himi Akebono Junmai Ginjyo Unfiltered Nama-shu.
From the other side of the world, drunken people can only donate money and drink sake.
It's only an unfiltered, unfiltered, unadulterated sake, so it's got a lot of acidity and astringency.
It has a oaky, oaky flavor...or maybe this is a ginjo aroma?
It has a faint scent of wood....
There is no peculiarity...but there is a sourness and astringency, so it may be different for different tastes.
For the time being, I will have it with three kinds of shellfish in olive oil.
I was also choosing some snacks...and then, by the manager's arrangement, there was a girl next to me on my left. No, it's just to make room in the restaurant...
She seems to be a girl who likes to drink, but since she ordered noodles, I guess she is not the type of person who drinks slowly.
If I saw her, I would treat her to the first drink....
Well, aggressiveness is both good and bad, isn't it? 酒屋 巡I'm having a drink on the spur of the moment series~♪
(Crackle, crackle, crackle...Hi, always at the ramen shop...lol
The fall of appetite.
I'm still feeling sentimental about it...lol.
Trying to fill my heart with something...well, like a certain dog/cat food commercial, I'm going full steam ahead with the fat life (I've heard that if I don't write politely these days, I won't be popular with the ladies ≒ I'll get burned)...I know that, but I can't stop myself!
Mutsu Hachisen's look is kind of cool.
Let's see...Mixseed Series2023 KiM69...summer festival, huh?
This is again, a completely different character from the usual Mutsu Hachisen.
The model in a sweetly girly outfit is usually a boyishly attractive, bonkers, and moderately sexy...sort of thing...?
It's hard to tell, and I'm afraid I'm being a fat harangue....
The standard Junmai has a strong sweetness from the rice, and there are a few times when I feel like I'm eating rice.
But this one is different... It has a slight sweetness, but it also has a crisp and sharp taste. ←Poor vocabulary.
Dangerous sake that goes well with food...even if you let them drink and eat, it's nothing, right? 酒屋 巡The next dish is horsemeat tartar.
(Certain movie style)
Of course I know that, of course I know that.
It's not very polite to drink sake while pretending to be a regular.
But, you know...but when you see delicious-looking dishes on the menu, you get curious, don't you?
Yokoyama SILVER Junmai Ginjo Hiyoroshi
The mouthfeel is refreshing. But it has a strong umami of rice, sweetness, and a hint of astringency. I wonder if it is a sweet wine.
As the label says, it looks like a rice wine when chilled to the brim, and it certainly looks delicious. Oh, it can also be served on the rocks?
It is difficult to describe the taste of sake.
Both sides are senior regulars.
The one on the left is an older gentleman.
The one on the right is a colleague from work? Less than a cappuccino.
Did he bring his own wine? I wonder if they serve horse meat tartar as a side dish to go with the wine.......
Well, I did eat some chicken wings from the back menu...but senior regulars would know that.
At the very least, a boon or a freebie...no, it's my own communicative ability that's the problem to begin with, right?
I should have talked to him earlier and gotten to know him better so I could get a drink....
I'm torn between having a snack and eating ramen noodles.... 酒屋 巡Autumn is here? It's not just the horses. It's autumn.
So? I came to the usual ramen shop.
(The night after the gout blood draw lol)
I spent a lot of money on the first payday of the month, so it's been a little while since I've been here on Monday.
I've been away for a while on Monday, but the chicken wings are still delicious!
I've been tweeting in the same place for a while now (more talking to myself, but never blabbering lol)...after all, it's so much easier....
The second sake of the day: Kurogyu Junmai Aki-agari
It's a very heavy sake.
It has the sweetness of rice, but the astringency of koji and a hint of acidity make it feel "spicy".
Although it is not described as "dry," it is made in Wakayama and Shikoku, so the degree of fermentation must be different.
For Tsumami, I asked for Tebasaki (chicken wings)...the second one today.
It seems to be on the back menu (they only have enough to take away from the preparation), and I had been wanting to try it whenever I saw it.
After eating chicken wings, drinking sake, and being offered black beef...I had no choice but to have a drink.
Now that I've had the standard snacks...maybe it's time for some noodles for the end of the meal 😁. 酒屋 巡I'll make love to you at all the stations
I'll make love to you
I've been suffering from the wallet crisis that all humans must go through at least once a month.
It's been a long time since I've been to Shivarak (of course, I came here to drink even when I wasn't posting).
The table is full as usual. Show bye Hanjyo!
Finally, finally, I had some chicken wings.
It's a ramen shop, but they also serve yakitori (grilled chicken) and it's delicious.
Rozenoyukidoke...melting snow in Oze...
I'm not sure if this is a gag for the middle-aged generation or not.
I'm a little surprised, really.
I'm really surprised.
The name aside, the taste is quite strong.
It's sake, but it's still very strong.
It tastes like strawberries, but with a hint of sake.
It's not as strong as strawberry liqueur, but it has more strawberry flavor than strawberry flavored vodka.
Wow, I've had this somewhere before...or maybe not...hmmm? It's so well made...hmmm?
Mmmmmm, it's so good!
Next to him on the left is Aiteikei.
Next to her on the right is a regular customer, Kashimashi-Musume.
Drinking with conversation is one of the privileges of drinking at night.
Ah, the good smell of ramen... 酒屋 巡I'm still drinking even though I have gout.
Good sake, good ramen.
Hi, it's been a while since I've posted anything.
I've been drinking, of course, but I don't have time to post when I'm drinking and eating so much.
This is a ramen izakaya that I've been frequenting recently.
The manager's personality is very charming.
And the manager recommends Shichisui in Tochigi.
I thought the pure rice flavor was coming (Zakiyama style), but to my surprise, I found a melon flavor.
Is it the yeast or the rice...it has a lot of melon flavor with green pulp.
Well, I recently had a local green-fleshed melon, so there is no doubt about it!
Melon flavor, or melon flavor?
Aftertaste: a slight rice "flutter" (can you tell if you've ever held a piece of paper together with rice? A hint of porridge...more and more and more sloppy) feeling.
I'm sorry, the manager is suspicious of my line with the cabaret lady... lol...
By the way, the event is still going on.
If you find her, please ask her.
Now I'm going to eat some horse sashimi, and then I think I'm going to finish up. 酒屋 巡So, why is it that places are banned from registration?
I contacted the management, but... well, if you find yourself in the area, you can sing "I'm going around, I'm going around, I'm going around, I'm going around, I'm going around, I'm going around, I'm going around, I'm going around the liquor store..." (abbreviated version).
...the guy next to me looks like a sake-no-wa person, too....
Well, now I'm drunk and on my third drink.
It seems that this is the first time for me to register as a member of Sake-no-wa?
Echigo Murakami Ojoyama
It seems to be a sake made by the sake brewer of Shimehari Tsuru.
Junmai Ginjo...strong and thin ginjo aroma.
A hint of sourness...aroma, but with a sharp umami and sweetness.
Ah, why did I eat up all the tsumami....orz
Different character from Shimebari Tsuru.
The sweetness of the rice.......oh, it seems to go well with warmed sake too.
I should drink while watching my wallet...my wallet caught a cold from the unexpected expense...lol
Maybe it's time for ramen for shime.... LOL! 酒屋 巡It's been about two months since I've been here.
It's been two months since I've been there.
Thanks to your help, I noticed that my girth is slightly increasing. I have noticed a slight increase in my belly circumference.
Are you drinking?
I think the best thing is that I don't get bored easily.
I don't have anything in season or anything new, but just ramen lol.
No, I'm here to drink.
You're good at coquettishness. I'm sure the manager is good at coaxing too.
We often have foreign customers come here to drink (or eat?). They come here to drink (or eat?).
The sweetness of the rice is also very strong.
When it slides down smoothly, there is a slight scent of ginjo aroma.
I don't really like sweet sake, but...there it is, just like the name says.
It's richer than the usual Kudokutei...Oh, it says "himitsu" or something like that.
So, here's the news? I'll let you know here.
If you happen to see us anywhere (and since it's written here, the stores are almost exclusively limited), we'll give you a cup of something (an Arabic number, an Arabic number)!
Hmmm... I think I'll go here next time I'm with you.
Well, I'm not going to do anything about it because I know what I'm doing, but I'm just playing around.
Of course, I'm a guy, so I don't have any ulterior motives...but if my girth is growing, I'm not going to be able to use chopsticks and sticks for anything...lol...
Oh, I wonder if there are any left...? 酒屋 巡I know it, but I can't stop.
Anne, the girl next to me on the right, is smiling as she eats her ramen!
It's as if she came here to eat.
No, it's a restaurant...a ramen shop, right?
She was eating so well that I couldn't help but notice.
No, a ramen shop is a bar after a meal at Shu2.
I thought I had seen it before...maybe. I may have never had a drink...maybe.
Mukade" means "windless" in Japanese.
When you put it in your mouth, you can smell the slight aroma and taste the umami and rice.
It is not a sticky rice, but an elegant taste.
Like a white wine without fruity flavor. It's like a white wine without fruity taste.
The aftertaste is a bit grapey. I can feel the grape (?) in the aftertaste.
It's been a while since I've had a good Junmai sake.
I'm sure I'll love it with food!
It's a pity that there is no fish...although there are some snacks...
I'll have some shrimp on skewers.
For the last dish of the day...let's have Niigata-style boiled and dried noodle!
The old man who went home ate it like it was delicious.
But first...how about one more? 酒屋 巡I say "a little bit of drinking", but I can't leave after just a "little bit".
In no time at all, the seats were filled and a line formed.
Two people waited, and then two more.
If we could only squeeze in one seat between them....
Toto and his neighbor, Mr. Shacho-like, Hey-chan.
They are cool little drinkers....
I'm alone, I'm in your way, and yet I'm still mean and dirty lol...
I thought I'd have one more drink, one bowl of ramen, and one beer and go home lol.
I wonder if I can drink that....
Yamagata Masamune, directly drawn from the bag
The fruity aroma like apples first.
The sweetness comes in a big rush, and then goes straight down.
A hint of rice lingers on the tongue.
A little later, a hint of cheese!
It's about to get in the way.
Shoyu and chashu are the final touch.
Yes, if you think about it, this is the second restaurant.
It's not the kind of place you come to for a leisurely drink on your first visit.
Well, let's think about it and drink........
Well, I'll go home after I finish my drink.
A seat is available.
We're open until 10:00 p.m., so everyone, please come! 酒屋 巡The manager murmured, "It's not busy..." "Welcome, 4 people in a group!
Well, it's true that it's hard to get in when it's busy both during the day and at night.
Compared to that, it is a little more relaxed.
I ordered some more skewers and had my third cup of sake today.
Le Lac Unfiltered Nama Sake
The aroma is light and the mouthfeel is crisp.
After the astringent acidity, the quiet umami and sweetness spread smoothly.
There is little sense of rice, but you can feel the rice in the rest of the taste and aftertaste.
This goes well with skewers.
It will make your fat life more active.
I'm drinking while posting today, so I'm a total freak unlike usual.
Two people are here just as I write this. A husband and wife?
I get a lot of visitors here.
It's hard to get tired of this place as a drinking place, and the sake is also very maniacal.
As I was writing this, two more people came, and then one.
...I think I'm going to lose my place....
One more drink...or will it be one?
Let's go home slowly before we disturb them.
But then, there were two more people.
I know they're ramen guys, but....
I guess I'll just close up and go home slowly. 酒屋 巡
Ramen shop where the fat life goes on!
Izakaya at night is a bit cheesy, isn't it? (Excessive characters)
I came here to eat and drink as an apology, and this is my second drink of the day (laughs).
No, it's not good, after all.
Itt Key Nama Sake Shiboritate
With an unusual name (like a certain Chihara Jr.'s cab trip, lol).
Fruity sourness like apple.
A hint of malted rice. It has a slight malted rice taste...or is it a barrel taste?
It is more like wine or fruit juice than rice.
It is very refreshing for a sake.
Personally, I am not a fan of sour sake, but this one was easy to drink.
The fact that it felt like juice was not good (in that I drank too much, lol).
The skewers have arrived, and I am very happy.
Now let's see what I will drink next time...(^o^) 酒屋 巡Oh no, I'm going to start my fat life on Monday, aren't I?
The last time I came here for a drink (another day after my last post), I slipped in just before closing time and drank a lot with the regulars and the manager, even though I couldn't eat noodles, and I got used to the place.
I did the forbidden move of a drunkard: drinking until morning and then going to visit the restaurant.
I lost my way (I wasn't aiming for that, was I?). I drank until rather late in the morning.
The manager told me today, "It was hard to open for business the next day...well, I'm used to it...".
I'm sorry... m(_ _)m
I came to the restaurant today to thank him and apologize for that.
The first drink of the day.
Yokoyama Junmai Ginjyo Unfiltered Nama Sake
...I don't know what's going on anymore.
The aroma is soft, gentle and fruity on the palate.
Then, there is the astringency of nama-zake and a slight tanginess like blue cheese (the astringent side is the acidity).
The sweetness and subtle umami of junmai rice lurking in the back.
Less sourness on the sour side, which is common in nama-shu.
Is it turned to fruity?
Well, since it is rice, it goes well with seared duck and char siu pork, and the sake goes down smoothly.
I have an early start tomorrow morning, so deep drinking is strictly forbidden.
I will drink moderately, slurp up some noodles, and go home.
Hmmm, what should I drink with skewers next time? 酒屋 巡Hey all you drinkers out there!
I have finally found the forbidden drinking place!
No, I don't mean the kind of sake or the particulars.
I'm not talking about the type of sake or the particulars, but about the drinking habits of the people who drink.
How "closing" is a big deal....
No, it's not...you understand, right, Pampi?
You drink, you eat, and you are satisfied to the stomach.
There aren't many places that can do it all in one place!
Do you understand, drinkers?
But now, there is a place where you can get all kinds of (healthy) bad stuff: !!!!!
Kanda Nanaren ... Ramen shop in the front, but izakaya at night.
The variety of drinks is very diverse (esde-ji-zu-ya!).
No more, I'm going straight for the fat life lol!
And the small variety of snacks also makes the drinks go down just right!
Yamaboshi Junmai Bakurai Dry Mouth
The characteristics of Yamaboshi are sweetness and umami. The "Bakurai" is a combination of bitterness and a hint of sweetness... but with the addition of the bitterness of the original sake.
Well, you can drink it with chashu pork and other dishes, and finish it with rice and noodles....
It's a different kind of immorality from that of Machichuka, the ramen shop...
Only a drinker can understand this feeling.
Now, what's your next drink? RecommendedContentsSectionView.title
