Juan Clemente

I've puffed a Demi Corona of Juan Clemente tonight. It was mild flavor, and easy to puff. It's said that this cigar produced by a French guy. and made in Dominica.

Pinot Blanc III KL 2005

I've sipped an Alsace wine after a while. Bruno Schueller, one of Alsace wine maker. I love his wines. I've puffed a mini cigar too.

Chevrette du poitou

It's a goat cheese in France. It's little aged. less acidity and the structure was velvety. Ah, What a happy time! This time, I sipped atsukan(warmed sake) too.

uirou

Uirou is a type of steamed cake produced principally in Nagoya, Yamaguchi and Kyoto. This uirou is made by goken uirou in Kyoto. The shop is located near Keihan Gojou st. It will take about 20 min from Kyoto st by train. The structure is little sticky and sweet. I liked this uirou. This time, I choose a stick of three type uirou(sakura, maccha, and plane). Definitely, You wanna drink Japanese tea(green, houji-cha, genmai-cha)!

fuki no tou

I can see wild vegetable, "fuki no tou" in front of my apartment this year again. Fuki no tou is called "Butterbur sprout" in English. It tastes little bitter and smell nice. some people eat it by Tempura. This bitterness is good for your liver. I cooked "fuku miso" today. just chopped fuki no tou and fry up with salad oil for minutes and added miso, mirin, sake, and some sugar. This time, I also added grated garlic and shitimi pepper(seven flavor chili pepper). It tastes miso, the bitter of the wild vegetable, sweet, and little hot. It goes together with rice!! You can also dip it on chicken, boiled vegetable(example Daikon and Konnyaku). It would be wonderful.

Aberfeldy 1993

I've sipped a glass of scotch tonight, Aberfeldy 1993, douglas of drumlanrig. It's the first time to drink. It smelt like soil and insect like unicorn beetle. Actually, It's a strange representation, but This scotch was unique as for me, and I liked it, even though my representation was not nice.

Dard et Ribo

Crozes Hermitage 2002. It tasted natural, a nice wine. I think It could be better if I would drink this wine after years. but I enjoyed it enough.

hoyo de monterrey

This cigar is a limited edition. I sometimes enjoy a mini cigar of this bland. It's much better, I love it!

marselan

marselan seems a variety of grapes. It's easy to drink, not thick. you can drink it smoothly. It's made by Domaine Chaume Arnaud. I will try his white next time.

kaki tea

This tea attracted my attention today. "kaki no ha", the leave of Japanese persimmon. I love the fruit, but I think I've never drunk the tea. It's not exactly tea leaves, but it's drinkable. I don't know that kaki leaves has some utilities, but smell not bad. It's subdued, but I like it.

Palm royal

I've drunk a belgium beer tonight. It's said that this beer has been produced as a birthday present of the beer owner since 2003. It's nice balanced and good flavor.

Capa Dominicana

Davidoff Limited Edition 2007, "Capa Dominicana". This is my first cigar in 2008. My ex-colleagues gave me this one last year, as a present of leaving work. I'd been keeping it and thinking when it's the best time to puff. and Today is a nice day for it. Of course, I had a wonderful time!
