Notes since filming:
And so it began. My love affair with Maruati ramen was sealed after my first bite of this. They’re such a consistent company, and I’ve loved everything I’ve tried of theirs. I learned during the ensuing marathon that I prefer all of their other more specialized tonkotsu flavors to this one, but this Hakata shoyu tonkotsu is still an eye-opening experience if you can find it.
Original video description:
We’re kicking off a 12 Days of Christmas extravaganza! Every day from now until Christmas, I’ll be reviewing one of Marutai’s 12 “Local Series” varieties. This stuff is supposed to be the best of the best but is still very easy to buy in the USA. First up is this Hakata style Soy Sauce Tonkotsu from Nagahama!
