The third drink was my request. I was attracted by the light nigori and effervescence. The store staff carefully controlled the opening of the bottle. I enjoyed it in different ways: supernatant, cloudy, and with ice. It was refreshing and fizzy.

The second drink was a drunken whale. It was still spicy, but softer and easier to drink than the previous one. He told me that people in Kochi can't drink unless the sake is light and dry, because they keep on drinking by exchanging sake cups.

Three of my best friends from high school were on our annual golf and sake trip. This was my first time in Kochi. After golf, we were taken to Katsurahama Beach to see the statue of Ryoma. I was surprised at how big it was. Then we had a party at an elegant restaurant. I started with Izo the Manslayer. Dry sake.

The party was a lot of fun, and a good amount of sake was consumed by the three of us!
Beksan was feeling a bit tired, so I dropped him off at the hotel and enjoyed the night in Kochi with Mexican tequila, gyoza at Yasubei, and shijimi ramen at Yumbei Yatai.
We had a drink at Shunya and some extra sake!
Tosa no Izumi Ginjo-shu by Shibotan!

Shunke here.
We have been very happy to have served you when I was working in Shikoku, and I have been bringing my friends here ever since!
The culture of Kochi is unique among the four prefectures of Shikoku.
The proprietress will sit down with us free of charge and enjoy talking and playing with us about this culture!
So, I asked the hostess to reserve a table and sit with us for this meeting.
Here comes the hostess!
I used to have the ceremony with hot sake, but I asked for cold sake for the first time this time because I was getting drunk too fast!
I selected my number 3800 here!

Since we had moderated the amount of sake we had consumed, we decided to start the Kochi ritual of playing the "Ozashiki" game with the proprietress!

Bikuyo Drink Comparison
This is the first time for me to drink a sparkling wine!
The waiter opened the bottle slowly and took his time to serve me a glass of sake.
He advises us to drink the top clear liquid first, then mix in the oli, and after that, drink it with ice on top!
The Kochi drinking party is called "Okyaku"!
Hospitality, great👍!
We enjoyed each drink in its own way 😃.
Salted bonito, so thick!
We ate three slices as it was, and the rest was topped with soup stock to change the taste!
Also delicious!

I haven't been to Tosa, Kochi, a tropical island in Japan, for a long time.
After mowing the lawn, I went to Shunya in town to experience Kochi culture!
Before having a tatami room with the proprietress, let's have some Kochi Sake first!
There are 12 kinds of Tosa sake in 300ml bottles at this store!
Choose the one you are interested in and drink it!
Famous for Okada Izura and Hitokiri Izura!
The sake is light and dry, like a representative of Kochi sake!
We didn't have any CEL24 sake here today, so let's enjoy the dry sake 😌.
After mowing the lawn, we went for a walk on Katsurahama beach 🚶.
