Egawa Sake
A sake brewery ...<b> Shizuoka Izunokuni, <br />Egawa Sake </b><br />A sake brewery in Shizuoka Prefecture, central Japan, has recreated a sake beloved by feudal warlords including the founder of the Tokugawa shogunate launched in the early 17th century.<br /><br />The Bandai Jozo brewery in the city of Izu has recreated Egawashu, a fruity and sweet sake brewed using techniques from over 320 years ago.<br />Egawashu was passed down in the Egawa family, a prestigious family dating back to the Heian period of the eighth to 12th centuries. Egawa family members served as "daikan" local governors in Nirayama, now the city of Izunokuni, Shizuoka, for generations.<br /><br />The drink was named by Hojo Soun, the first head of the later Hojo clan, and enjoyed by many warlords including Oda Nobunaga, according to Takayuki Hashimoto, 68, curator at Egawa Bunko, a foundation that manages the Egawa Residence, a national important cultural property, and the national historical site of the former Nirayama daikan office.<br />.<br />https://www.nippon.com/en/news/yjj2021041800205/<br />.Gabi Grevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16362456518166174106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3191835248953933738.post-44366524902726615582018-03-09T12:38:38.499-08:002018-03-09T12:38:38.499-08:00bureikoo 無礼講 bu-reiko or burei-ko

Although attendance isn't strictly mandatory, skipping a team nomikai may be perceived as problematic and is generally view negatively. In many teams, any excuse is used to schedule nomikai such as work milestones, welcome parties and goodbye parties. There are also annual nomikai such as bonenkai or team hanami parties.<br />... Bureiko is widely regarded as being valuable as an alternative reality from the rigid rules that traditionally govern Japanese business situations. It allows ideas to flow more freely and teams to bond.<br />https://www.japan-talk.com/jt/new/bureiko<br />.<br />Gabi Grevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16362456518166174106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3191835248953933738.post-12785016172382427332018-03-08T21:23:40.583-08:002018-03-08T21:23:40.583-08:00Amanosake, Amano Sake 天野酒
