I drink the nihonshu that you're seeing being made as much as I can. <BR/>When I was the sake guy at Sam's, I was the first in Chi-town to bring in Henry's line. I've met several of his producers as they've blown through the Windy city. <BR/><BR/>Great that you're in the same town as him. I've been promising Beau that I'd do a review of the Watari Bune 55 tasted both warm and chilled. <BR/>If you send me your e-mail address, I'll send you a pic of the last time I was in J. when I spent an evening with Philip Harper (known him for a few years, wrote review of his book for amazon)in a small back-alley izakaa in Osaka, where we wound up drinking '88 sake. Warm and aged. <BR/><BR/>Henry has a phenomenal line and I promote it as I can. <BR/>Sounds like you owe him (as in Kill Bill)... a rather large obligation. <BR/><BR/>I think you're probably back in NYC, I think you enjoyed your trip a bit more than I did, but... very, very cool stuff. <BR/><BR/>I'll be back in March, unless Ataru Kobiyashi(Niigata) sends me there prior to that to get his "under construction for 3 years" up and running. <BR/><BR/>Another great thing you've got in NYC... Ataru. <BR/><BR/>Kanpai! <BR/>Larrylarmechhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15939234846422566617noreply@blogger.com
