This is the third drink of the first cool. The restaurant is located in the basement of the Otemachi Building, but it has been a long time since I have had sake. It is a delicious sweet-and-savory type of sake.
The second cool was these three bottles. Almost all of them were new to me. Especially, I heard that "One Drop Two Drops" is a sake from Nagano, but I had never heard of it. I enjoy the variety of sake. This sake is also my favorite type. Nagano sake is good.
On this day, we celebrated the promotion of our business partner's immediate past. Congratulations on becoming an executive at a young age! He loves sake, so we invited him to this restaurant. The first set of sake tasting was these three bottles. This was my first time to try this sake. It is mellow and delicious.
The last was super dry at the request of those who prefer dry. It was not harsh and easy to drink. It has been a long time since we had an enjoyable small drinking party.
After the sake tasting, we went for a single dish. We had a bottle of Mikotsuru, which is also a staple at this restaurant. Needless to say, it was fruity and delicious, and the three of us enjoyed it together.
Third cup. This was at the request of my junior who likes dry sake. It is delicious with a round taste and a dry, refreshing sensation. It ran out quickly.
What is this label and name for the second cup? It is said that the name is derived from the thought of the brewery anxiously and expectantly waiting for the sake to be released from the brewery, overlapping with the thought of waiting for the next bout. How does it taste? A light sweetness with sourness and spiciness that gives it depth. It's delicious. It's just as good as expected.
Today, I was tired from the first thing in the morning until late in the evening after a long series of meetings and discussions, including a lunch break. I decided to have a drink with my juniors and go home. Since I came to this restaurant, I decided to try the sake tasting set. First up was the Shimanto River, from left to right. It is not too spicy and mild for a Tosa sake. It is delicious.
The third drink was the first Amanoto. It was easy to drink and refreshing. We talked a lot and drank a lot more, but I didn't take any pictures, so that's all I have to say. We had a lot of Nagano sake.
On this day, I had a drink after a long time with a business colleague of 30 years. We have shared many hardships on many projects since the dawn of our current business. He is still working before his 70th birthday. We spent a pleasant time talking not only about the old days but also about the future. The first sake tasting set was from Nagano. It was delicious.
I will have another glass. This is also a good sake. It is sweet and delicious. Nagano is also deep, which I have never known before. I can understand the strength of the taste when I drink it with eggplant miso. Today was almost all Nagano. Thank you very much.
Next up was a push on sake from the proprietress's hometown. I heard it won a gold medal. The proprietress explained that it was the best in the world. Great expectations. The sake has a slight effervescence and an elegant sweet flavor. But the pungent taste remains on the tongue. It is elegant but deep in flavor. It naturally goes well with the strong taste of eggplant miso. This is delicious.
This is a service by the proprietress. I pour a sip and have it poured. Bon appétit! It's a bit dry. The sweet and tasty flavor comes in a big bang, and then it finishes refreshingly. This is certainly delicious.
It seems like every day this week I am greeting the New Year. Tonight we went to Kibana. When I asked for a good sake to warm up, the proprietress served me a dry sake from her hometown. The mouthfeel is crisp and dry, with a delicious umami flavor. It starts the engine.
