Yes, but I'm prejudiced -- I just love buying Sakuma tosai from ENKOI.

Bought a tosai showa from the Apr 2005 shipment. Bought 3 tosai (kohaku, showa, GR showa) from the Oct 2006 shipment. Bought 2 tosai kohaku from the Feb 2006 shipment.

My wife finally agreed to let me go to this event, but she made me leave all my $ and plastic at home.

Obviously I'm not qualified to say what these tosai are going to look like at 3, 5, or 7 years. But they (and some others I've seen) have sure been cleaning up on the show circuit in the junior sizes.

Only time will tell whether they're strictly "for the show" or whether they're also "for the future."
