Timeline
しんしんSYThe couple next door had just left.
I wished them a happy wedding anniversary, and was about to congratulate them on their wedding anniversary, when the young proprietor quickly left a bowl of oshinko (Japanese pickles) for me!
So, just one more cup of somen, and to top it off!
I asked the owner if I should have hot somen noodles, but the young owner came out and told me that cold somen noodles were also available!
I was so glad to hear that, and I would be happy to have it!
Let's end with a dry sake, which is not my favorite but I had noticed on the blackboard!
It's a Sado Island sake from the Keio brewery!
The label says it has a Sake Degree of +20 or higher!
Oh, it's crisp and dry with a nice saltiness!
While we were eating the oshinko (Japanese pickles), the somen noodles appeared!
The somen noodles are made into bite-sized pieces, just like hegisoba!
The young master chef of Kokomishina, every dish is delicious with his own twist!
We finished off the evening with Soumen noodles in a broth with plenty of wasabi and ginger, which was as dry as the dry sake!
Still chilly in the morning and evening in Hokkaido!
Tomorrow, we are going to Obihiro for a cross-industrial exchange meeting!

They said they visit Kokomishina every year on their wedding anniversary!
They have their own store in their hometown!
The locals also told us that this place is a sake lover's paradise!
That's why they don't want it to be known too much.
I agree.
This Silver Lining super limited Junmai Daiginjo So no Mai 29 Namaishu from Kangiku was surprisingly a first for me!
My neighbor said it was delicious, so I had high expectations!
It was beautiful and I enjoyed its sweetness!
The owner also told us that tomorrow is his birthday!
June 6 is Shinsei's birthday!
He is going to be 81 years old!

Can we have a sake comparison for the last one?
We have two kinds of Shinshu Kamerei that we were curious about!
The young master came near us and finally got it in stock!
He said it's not easy to buy these days!
Hitogokochi and Yamadanishiki!
It would have been nice to compare both, but we wanted to drink something else, so we decided to go with Yamadanishiki and Kangiku!
It has already been a year since I met Shinshu Kamerei when I reviewed the sake.
Most of them are Hitogochiki, but Yamadanishiki is rare!
Nagano sake, a hot brand, is still delicious!

The blackboard says "yari ika sashimi.
How is the squid this time?
He said it's a little small but delicious!
Well, I'll take it then!
The neighbor had just ordered sake, so it's about time for me to have some too! There was still more than half of the bottle left in the four-pack, so there were lots of bubbles in the glass!
It's not freshly opened but it's nice🙆🙆!
After 2021, 2022, and 2023, we had the 2024 Yamadanishiki Ninojo!
My neighbor smiled and said it was delicious, and I nodded my head. 🙂↕️

Then let's go for it!
I was a little hesitant to drink it because it was labeled "Yamahai", but when I saw the label, I thought it must not be the usual Tasake!
After all, it's premium!
No apple flavor!
It's in the same vein as Shinmasa Direct Pass and Hanahayo, which I drank on the same day!
I like it: ❤️
It was not like Tasake's special pure sake!
I have a feeling that the pace of drinking is going to speed up again, since we also had some sweet-and-sour pork!

Let's have a bottle of Jyushiyo to go with this!
The neighbor also recommended it to us, saying it was delicious!
The first two sakes were also my favorites, but this one was also very spread out in the mouth!
I recently drank Hana Yuu, but it was even more excellent than this!
I feel happy with a little spicy food and fruity sake!
Three years ago, we celebrated 1500 at an off-line meeting of Sake-no-wa in Morioka with a bottle of Jyushidai!
That brings back memories!
I checked the history of Sake-no-wa and found that this Junmai Ginjo Nakadori Un-filtered Nama-Zume was the first time in my history of Jyushidai!
There are still more Jyushidai that I don't know about!

We have asked her employer to cooperate with her rehabilitation, and the young proprietor thanked us for taking good care of her.
We wish her a speedy recovery so that we can see her smile again!
So I'm going to drink a lot today!
While eating the first course of Unohana, I found Hanahayo, so I'm going to have my second drink!
When I checked the sake brewery, I found that they drink Yamadanishiki 55 at this time of the year, but it's all ogara-mi!
This was the first time for me to taste the directly pumped sake on this day!
You can taste the pineapple flavor, but unusually, there is a bit of bitterness on the throat!
That's fine!
Let's write down that I feel that way on this day!
I wonder if the food I ordered will come soon!

Tonight I'm feeling a little warmer in the north 😋.
We were looking forward to going to Mishina.
We were seated next to a couple at the counter with two customers ahead of us 🪑.
The people next to us seemed to be enjoying their sake as well!
They asked for Shinmasa, so I asked for the same!
Direct pass, sweet and sour like peach extract!
So fresh!
I have a feeling that we will be flying right from the start!
Looking at these brands, I'm having a hard time making a choice today too 😩.

Hana-yoku Premium was already gone on this day.
Then let's go for Tasake's high spec sake!
Moreover, this is my first time to taste Kojo-nishiki!
There were two groups of two customers that day!
Each of them ordered sake with great enthusiasm!
There was also Tasake Special Junmai, so everyone ordered that one!
Compared to the special junmai, which is full of apple flavor, this junmai daiginjo tastes more like a ripe apple or grape.
The cherry blossoms in Hakodate have already finished their best time to bloom and there are only a few more blossoms left.
I wonder if I will be able to see the cherry blossoms while driving tomorrow?

I had already had 6 kinds of sake that day, so I thought it was time to go home, but I wanted to try them all!
What's more, I wanted to compare them!
Another entrée, octopus and asparagus with vinegared miso!
This is the second time to drink Haname.
Last time it was nigori sake, and this time it was fire-brewed!
Sweet and sour and easy to drink!
I'm glad I chose it!

I told him that we stocked good sake today too!
He went back to the back with a big smile on his face.
Next, we'll have this sake from the Masariya hanpukai.
I've seen Ki from time to time, but this light purple label is a first for me!

There were a lot of sake that we had enjoyed in the past, but we decided to pass on them this time!

It's a sake from Tsuruoka City, Yamagata Prefecture.

This sake is from that brewery 🍶.
As the label says, it has a muscat flavor!
Fruity and easy to drink!

Now, I have decided on the next sake!
Unfortunately, I couldn't find this Kaze no Mori in Nara.
Aburacho Sake Brewery was also closed.
A new sake rice, Nanatsuyu!

I was getting tired in the second half of my business trip.
This is the last one!
We had this last year, too!
Nakadaya's brand is not yet a standard choice at Sake-no-wa!
So I'm going to continue with the one I posted last year.
The dishes finally arrived!
Ate with seasonal strawberries, strawberries and cream cheese wrapped in prosciutto ham!
Freshly baked shellfish also arrived!
Nakadaya, just like last year, satisfied us with their fruity drinks!
We will be back next month!
I am looking forward to spring sake!

It's an orihara.
It's a very impressive sake.
It's quite violent in the mouth!
But it's one of my favorite tastes.
I think it's close to NUE among the recent sakes I've had.
As expected, the food comes out a little late!
But these spring rolls with Huishan ascetic garlic smell and taste like dumplings!
The sake goes down a treat 🍶!

It is a crossbreed between "Yume-Ichikyo" and "Yamada-Nishiki". しんしんSYAs we are a business traveler with a lack of vegetables, I ordered this pork shabu-shabu with lots of vegetables 🐖🥦🫛🥒🍅.
As for the sake, I still had some of this that the young master prepared for me last time, so I ordered some more 🤭.
It tasted just like the last time I had it.
It is deliciously sweet with a slight bitterness at the end.
There seems to be more than just this sakura!
If you find it somewhere else, let's drink it!

The restaurant was crowded with one couple leaving and two groups of six remaining.
I was told to go to the counter near the entrance.
The snow is melting and it's almost spring!
In a couple of weeks, the cherry blossoms will be in Hakodate 🌸🌸🌸
I'm not sure if I'll be able to see them this year 🌸🌸🌸
I look at the menu to see what's available today 💹.
Oops, there's a Jyushiyo!
I haven't seen it for a while, so let's start with this one!
Well, it's still delicious 😋!
Nice aroma, deliciously sweet and fruity!
I'll drink it in small sips!
The other customers are ordering more and more drinks and dishes, so it will probably take some time for the food I ordered to come out ⏳.
As I eat my appetizer, I congratulate myself on a job well done for the day 🙂.
Hooray for good sake!
Lately when I see Jyushiyo and Niimasa, I naturally want to drink them!
It's not easy to find them.
