Sake

To celebrate getting a job and having alot of ones in my wallet I went to Fred Meyer to buy a few bottles of sake, wine, and beer. This is what I bought....

From left to right....
a 6 pack of Bridgeport "Blue Heron Pale Ale"(a good local brew)
a bottle of
Momokawa "Pearl" Junmai Ginjo Nigori Genshu Sake... (a less filtered sake which is cloudy)
Hakutsuru Draft Sake.... which i just drank.. it very good and smooth
Hakutsuru generic Sake... the same type that i bought 2 nights ago(not as smooth as the draft)
Goats do Roam red wine.... this is an African wine... I have had it before... I highly recommend it

anyho
I am happy ot have a job and I have been using some of my tips to try new types of sake. Now that I have money, I can't wait to go to sushi again!

I am not a big fan of hard alcohol..... i love wine and beer is good.... but sake is a completely unexplored world for me. After having the Hakutsuru Draft Sake tonight I am excited to try for types of sake and find what is affordable and good tasting. the draft sake was the smoothest i have ever drank. I had some really good Nigori(unfiltered) sake and I would like to find more unfiltered sake. It was a very interesting taste.... almost carbonated..... it had a bite and a chalky texture... it was delicious. Thanks to lily for the white elephant gift!

Well I am working the lunch and dinner rushes tomorrow... and am a bit stressed but I hear a little stress is good in life... as long as it does not get out of hand. I was on the grill the whole time today throughout the lunch rush... it was hectic but I made it through. I still have more then enough room to improve.
