The second (almost final) omakase drink was Shinsei's Yonotori. And it was some kind of collaboration. However, I have never had regular Yonotori, so I don't know the difference. I don't understand why a kijozo-shu with 12 degrees alcohol by fizzing sounds like a weak yen, a strong dollar, low stock prices, and rising interest rates. But even though it is a kijoshu, it is not unnecessarily heavy, and even though it is sparkling, it is not dry like champagne, and even at 12% alcohol, the umami is firm and gently sweet. It is delicious. I wonder what the normal Yonotori is like.

First round of omakase at my first yakitori restaurant. Another first for me, "Wakamusume". Sake from Yamaguchi is delicious. The fact that it is a junmai daiginjo, unfiltered raw sake is enough to fill me up. The aroma is moderate, and the umami and sweetness are balanced at a high level. This is a brand that I would like to keep an eye on from now on.
