  • Who needs a bartender when you can replace him with a vending machine! Japan is loaded with amazing vending machines -- and in this episode, John travels with a JR Tokyo Wide Rail Pass from Tokyo to Echigo Yuzawa to sample a lot of Niigata's best sakes from the SAKE TASTING VENDING MACHINE!!
    The sake tasting vending machines are inside the train station in a place called Ponshukan. There are 120 different sakes to try.
    SAKE TASTING VENDING MACHINE SYSTEM:
    500 yen gets you a cup and 5 coins.
    1 coin can fill the cup once.
    When finished, return the sake cup.
    The drinking age in Japan is 20 year old.
    Getting to Echigo Yuzawa Station:
    The JOETSU Shinkansen / bullet train departs from Tokyo and Ueno Stations every 20 minutes from 6am to 10pm.
    It takes 80 minutes to travel the 180km to the center of the Japanese alps.

    John, when you were talking about New Years, does New Years in Japan fall on the same date as the u.s?

    • @WaoryuONLYinJAPAN
      @WaoryuONLYinJAPAN  8 лет назад +8

      It does. The new year holiday is called "shou-gatsu" and it's usually from 12/29 to 1/5 or so.
      On the 1st, people visit the shrine for hatsumode, the first prayer of the year. Special foods galore! It's not a time to go to countdown parties like the west ... Nearly everyone is with family at home watching NHK's New Year show. Haha! But you can go to a temple where they ring a bell 108 times from midnight on. -John

    Yeah , Those Sake Cups are unbelievably Expensive at the market . We buy those as its customery to drink sake in a accepted traditional manner while You are in Japan . But, Ones We are at our own ,We use very big tumblers to drink sake as Cups are so small and alchole % of sake varieties are only to 8% to 14 or 16. And We always buy 1.8 or 2.8 L Sake Pks. Its really very very Interesting to spend some time of Your Life in Japan .

  • @Yukihuru
    @Yukihuru 3 года назад

    If you are looking for a sake that has no habits and is like fresh water, you should choose Jouzen Mizunogotoshi.
    Where there is good rice and good water, there is always good sake, so please look for it in other areas as well.
    Although general sales are limited, sake lovers should definitely try Doburoku, which is the origin of sake.
    The flavors are very rich and pristine and strong, but the individual differences are very interesting.
    Some of them have fruity and refreshing flavors reminiscent of citrus fruits, as well as a slight carbonation that makes it hard to believe it is sake.

    For someone who has never had Sake, what do you recommend for the first time?

      Gary Hardin I recommend "HAKKAISAN" or "KUBOTA" because they're pretty smooth and help people ease into other sake with more personality. Don't get the cheapest one. Go for mid level and you never go wrong IMHO. Those two brands have great reputation and from Niigata, clean water, fresh countryside air and excellent rice. -John
