tomoさんYear-end party at work on this day.
This year, we changed the venue to a casual Italian restaurant 🥂.
The food was delicious and we kept drinking sparring wine!
We went to the after-party to thank the newcomer who was the host of the party.
The place was my new favorite, Japanese Sake Bar SQUEEZE!
I hadn't been there since my last visit with Mr. Yoohee, but he remembered the owner!
We had "Kachikoma" recommended by the waitress!
It was the first time to see Kachikoma in hiragana 🔰.
This is a draft sake.
It doesn't have any gassy feeling, but it has a good umami flavor and a clean aftertaste, making it easy to drink 🥰.
I can see why it's so popular!
After that we drank a lot (Haneya, Eikoufuji, etc.) but I didn't take any pictures 😅.
We ended up drinking a lot of shochu (flamingo orange, cool mint green, and other stylish labels) and went home drunk.
There was also a wide variety of fruit liqueur nigori (Umenoyado's or something like that), which was very popular among my female colleagues.
With a wide variety of drinks and a single price, this is a good place for after-parties for drinkers! tomoさんKansai member Yoohee came to visit us in Kumamoto😊.
His wife had to work on Sunday, so only Mr. Yoohee went to Kumamoto ahead of us.
Of course he would go to Kumamoto if he was invited for a drink 😁.
RIKI is closed on Sunday 😭
So, we went to Negibozu, where you can have a lot of Japanese sake and Kumamoto's specialties for our first stop!
Yoohee-san took a good picture of this place, so I'm sure he will review it someday😅.
We went to the second bar after drinking Hana-no-Kou, Kikuchigawa, Hanagaki Nigori, Midorikawa, etc.
Japanese Sake Bar SQUEEZE is an all-you-can-drink bar with about 10 kinds of Sake, a lot of Shochu, 🍺 and cocktails!
There was Denshitsu Kiku, so I ordered it first!
The sake is orikarami, so you can taste the umami of the rice, and it has just the right amount of sweetness.
But we had already drunk enough (100ml O O 4 or 5 glasses) to be drunk by the time we got to the first bar 🤣.
After that I had 4 kinds of sake alone (I think I had a different one from Denshogiku, but no photo 😅) and 2 glasses of shochu and I was completely drunk 🤣.
I hope I was able to entertain Yoohee properly 😅. ポンちゃんGood evening, tomo🦉.
I was surprised because I didn't know about the Kumamoto mini-mini offline meeting at all😳I can tell you had a good time from the fact that you drank a lot😆I'm jealous of you Yoohee for being able to drink this ❣️ tomoさんHi Pon 😊
I was planning to keep it light since it's Sunday.... but this is what I ended up doing 🤣.
I could recommend some drinks that seem to only be available locally 👌😁. ゆーへーtomo Thank you very much for your help on that ✨.
Thank you so much for your last minute call 💡.
We had a lot of Kumamoto sake and I think I had about 2 glasses of shochu by the end 💧.
It was a fun night in Kumamoto 🌃 tomoさんGood evening, Mr. Yoohee 🌟
I was going to drink lightly, but I made you drink with gusto. 🙇♂ It's the nature of drinkers 😂.
The second half of the episode you were recommending shochu, which I've been into lately😅. tomoさんLaunch after-party 🥂.
The sixth drink of the after-party: Shinkame Hiyamoroshi
It's a very Shinkame-like sake!
This can be served cold, but it is cold and warm 🍶.
About the time I started drinking this, I noticed a student didn't come back from the bathroom... 💤.
I hurriedly gave him a 🚕 ride home😅.
I ended up drinking 16 different kinds that day😅.
The first Japanese sake bar I went to had a pretty good selection of shochu 😍.
I'll try shochu next time 😁. つぶちゃんGood morning, TOMO: ☀️
You drank an awful lot 😳😆😆.
I was wondering if you students 🔰 were ok? I knew it 😂I hope you had a good night's sleep 😴🤣.
I hope you like Sake 😊♪ tomoさんGood evening, Tsubu 🌟.
We had a lot of fun and drank too much 🤣.
I also showed you where you can buy good sake, so I hope you'll come to love sake 😊. tomoさんLaunch after-party 🥂.
The fifth cup of the after-party: Shinomine Junmai Ginjo Omachi
Comparison of Shinomine
Next is the Junmai Ginjo Omachi!
This one is also refreshingly dry, but a little more umami (flavorful).
The overall taste was mellow.
But I can't taste the fine flavors anymore 🤣. tomoさんLaunch after-party 🥂.
The fourth drink of the after-party: Shinomine Yuuyuu Yamadanishiki
Shinomine comparison
First, a Junmai Yamadanishiki!
It says "over summer" on the bottle, so I guess it's a hiyaoroshi.
It's very dry and has a strong alcohol taste at the end.
I can't tell the fine flavors anymore😅. tomoさんLaunch after-party 🥂.
The third drink of the after-party, TENBUKI I LOVE Sushi CHUCHUTORO
Ordered because I was curious about the label
This is a refreshing food sake.
I'm already pretty drunk... so my memory of the taste is questionable😅. tomoさんLaunch after-party 🥂.
Second round of drinks Sono Kangiku OCEAN99 Orange Sea
A sweet and savory brew with a strong flavor 😍.
This one is also delicious👍
I like Kangiku, but I don't see it around here very often, so when I see it out and about like this, I have to order it 😁. tomoさんLaunch after-party 🥂.
The after-party was at Japanese sake bar squeeze.
It was our first visit.
All you can drink for 2 hours for ¥3300
If the timing is good, they have Jyushidai and other drinks!
The first drink of the after-party: Raku Masamune (middle).
We ordered this sake, which is delicious even when it's alsobeerated, for them to drink!
It's still delicious!
It doesn't have the alcohol taste that is typical of sake with alcohol added, and it has the juiciness of raw sake!
Sweet and refreshing 🥰. RecommendedContentsSectionView.title
