Yes, thank you for your help! 😁.
For my 6th cup, I had Tobiroki.
Ummm, I can feel the sweetness and flavor, but perhaps it has been sitting for a while and the bitterness stands out.
I watched for a while, but it seemed like almost no one ordered sake 😓.
I think that nosy old man should order a lot of sake since he can compare the different kinds of sake.
I guess you have to be in a good restaurant to taste the sake with satisfactory taste 😅😅.
But still, there are so many customers coming one after another, this must have been really hard during the Wuhan pneumonia.
I was just thinking once again how they have really managed to come back so far by filling such a large floor with customers and having all the staff to keep the place running. 😀
But that doesn't mean that you can't drink good sake at a high quality level.
Thank you for your hard work today.
Good night. (Holy shit!)
An hour and a half into the restaurant.
The gringo who was drinking alone at the counter has paid his bill and is gone.
The counter is basically a couple.
I'm alone, mooching and posting to the sake crocodile (lol).
Anyway, I can only post this kind of thing when I am alone and not under the guidance of my wife, because the map function does not seem to recognize me unless I am near a restaurant.
I don't need to eat and drink in a hurry, so I'm just going at my own pace.
The fifth cup was Masumi from Nagano.
I guess this is a brand that I sometimes have a connection with.
When I took a sip, I felt the sourness on top of the clean water.
It is easy to drink and goes with everything! It is easy to drink and goes with everything! It is easy to drink and goes with everything!
It's amazing.
Groups of people kept coming in one after another.
I wonder if many company workers come to the restaurant on weekdays.
They refuse to take reservations.
No, it's nice to see so many people!
Now, the fourth glass is a Junmai Ginjo from Kuroryu.
For those who drink a lot, what? This small boar cup? but for me, this amount is OK (laugh).
Since I became over 60 years old, I have started to be conscious of cutting back on the amount of sake I drink.
It would be a shame if I couldn't drink it well, so I maintain the attitude of taking a little bit of good sake.
At home, I can relax and drink, so I may drink a little too much, but it is very rare that I finish a four-pack.
When we drink outside with a lot of people, we share the sake with everyone, so the total amount of sake we drink is about 2 to 3 gou.
That's why I chose this place, where I found a picture of a sake drinking comparison on the Sake-no-Wa search engine.
Junmai Ginjo from Kuroryu.
Slightly sweet and tasty.
Slightly acidic.
A bit of bitterness at the bottom of the bottle.
Hmmm, I wonder if not many people order sake for the many customers 😅.
At 6:30, the restaurant was even more crowded. 😁.
The third cup was a brand called Aouda.
Since it is from Fukuoka, it is a neighbor of Shichida.
The taste is somewhat similar, but that does not mean that it is so because they are neighbors (laugh).
It is smooth and sweet.
It is smooth and deliciously sweet, with only a little bit of sourness.
The bitterness is not particularly noticeable, even if you are conscious of it.
Today, I went to Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine.
I sometimes come here in the fall, but this time it was just too hot, and the people from the other continent walking along the road were noisy.
It was quite a physical and mental strain.
But this time, I was accompanied by a one-month-old baby, his parents, and his grandparents.
She was crying all the time, probably because she was hungry or uncomfortable because of the heat, but she stopped crying when I said the prayer!
Amazing! 👍
We enjoyed the worship.
The second glass was a daiginjo of Tedorigawa.
Behind me, he is saying "Tedorigawa is gone!
Was it at the bottom?
Well, the taste of the water is clean and refreshing.
It has no peculiarity at all and is perfect for sashimi.
By the way, it was hot in Tokyo today.
It was a little bit hot in the shade, but it was hard in the direct sun. I was soaked in the direct sunlight.
It's going to be as hot this year as last year, but it's going to get colder from tomorrow, I wonder if my body can handle it. 😅
In no time at all, customers are coming in.
It's good that restaurants are busy. 👍
Good evening! 😀
Today, I am here in Tokyo on a business trip.
It's a business trip to celebrate & ask for your help. 😁.
My wife is accompanying me, but I decided to have dinner alone because I have another matter to attend to.
I went to an izakaya near the hotel, thinking that there would be no place where I could have a quiet drink because there were so many foreigners.
The convenient thing about sake-no-wa is that you can see who is drinking and eating at what kind of restaurant, so I decided to go here where I found a picture of a sake drinking contest when I did a search.
Japanese food, sake, Enn.
Well, it is an izakaya with the feel of a chain restaurant.
I couldn't order much to eat and drink by myself, but I decided to have a sake comparison and drink slowly anyway.
As I wrote before, I would never be able to report on the food and drink if my wife was next to me. 😅
First up was Shichida Junmai.
This is a Saga sake that is a standard item at the Fukuroiya Brewery in Morioka.
Take a sip.
It has a slight sweetness.
As the robust flavor heads toward the back of the throat, acidity and bitterness follow.
We served it with tuna sashimi.
It was delicious.
Good evening, Mr. Kumagai. ‼️
Welcome 🤗
I'm glad you enjoyed your wonderful business trip drinking 🍶!
It's a great drinking experience! Enjoy 🝢.
Thanks to your wife 😁.
Good evening, Asanami! I'm so glad to see you here 😀
I had a hard time deciding on a place to eat, so I searched in Sakewa. 😅
It was great to compare drinks in small quantities! 👍
However, I would have preferred a quieter place to drink alone!
