I stumbled here after googling for the wine I made tonight's dong po pork from.

This post reminds me of the time I drank some old Taiwanese liquor of a girlfriend's father, left over from his days serving his time in the army. It wasn't obviously good, but there it had a humidity and verdant aroma that was more evocative than a good liquor. I could tell he treasured what he had left for this.

On the off chance you want to read about another's Japan trip here you go.

Making me yearn for my premium sake! Cheers!

Great post! I was honored to be at one of the dinners where the "cheap and strange tasting" elixir was served. No, I am not talking Rombauer, hahah! Altho I am still drowning my sorrows because I missed the chance to meet Rona's lovely sister the next day! Pass the rice wine please, haha!
