More Hollister Party Goodness...

It was remarked tonight, while eating way too much sushi, that Ozeki Sake (U.S.A.) is also in Hollister. Look for Ozeki domestic Sake at the next [livejournal.com profile] hollister2008 Casa de Worldcon event...

And when shall that next event be? Westercon perhaps...hmmm?

Last night I had two, ug, two shots of
wokka( http://www.wokkasaki.com/about.htm ), saki and vodka together in a bottle.....my head is telling me never to do that again, after much Tequila. Thank goodness I drank lots and lots of water!

If there's enough interest, we have a room and may do a party at Westercon. It can't deplete the budget so much we can't do a L.A.con IV party.

Wokka sounds nasty. It's kind of backwards. Honjozu-style sake is sake with a bit of neutral spirits added; it lightens the flavor and opens up the aromatics a bit. Almost nobody imports Honjozu-shu to the states, though.

For a really wierd sensation, try Gekkeikan Zipang Sparkling Sake (http://www.gekkeikan-sake.com/product.cfm?start=7&type=import). It's good, but it's weird. Very BASFA...

Actually, it wasn't bad chilled. It was just having two shots, after many Margaritas...
We were with a twenty something crowd last night. And we outlasted them...heh. They thought Dave and I were "early forties" at most. The host of course knew.
