Today, I had the happiest monent in last a few weeks. One of my Japanese customers @Maedaya who traveled to Melbourne to watch St Kilda vc Geelong match over the weekend came back to Maedaya for the first time since his last visit in September last year.
Once he sit down at the bar counter, he smiled and started talking to me about how he had being caught up at the custome when he entered into Australia this time. Then he showed me a huge beutiful box of KUBOTA MANJU JUNMAI DAIGINJO 1.8L and offered me to have it as a gift! He told me that he enjoyed the meal & sake last time @maedaya and he wanted to bring a good Japanese sake to me & maedaya staff to enjoy. What a nice & kind gentleman! Thank you so much, Hayakawa san! !
We opened the bottle and enjoy sipping it together. KUBOTA MANJU JUNMAI GINJO is one of the most famous smooth & dry sake from Niigata, Japan and he told me this is one of his favorite style of sake. Indeed, the fragrance is not so big considering being a Junmai Daiginjo but the smoothness & cleanness with a crisp dry finishing is the strong sales point. I can easily see why this bottle is so famous in Japan.
Thank you again Hayakawa san for a beautiful present! I would love to share this bottle with my friends & customers who just honestly loves sake. (So if you see this blog, come to maedaya to try this beautiful sake!) Please enjoy staying in Melb and footy, Hayakawa san!
