I went to the Katano Cherry Blossom Fair at Asano Sake Shop because I was curious about the fair!
The first sake I was looking for was the limited edition light nigori sake!
Alcohol 15%, Polishing ratio: Koji rice 50%, Kake rice 55
Sake degree +1, Acidity 1.5, Amino acidity 1.3
Gohyakumangoku 1801 yeast
Gorgeous, fruity, sweet and delicious, but a little dry.
Slightly effervescent and would be delicious drunk at home.
I went to the Katano Sakura Fair at Asano Sake Shop because I was curious about it!
I thought it would be more profitable to drink in the store since it's so expensive to buy 😅.
The first one I drank was the dewy scent.
Alcohol 15 degrees, Polishing ratio: Koji rice 50%, Kake rice 55
Sake degree +2, Acidity 1.5, Amino acidity 1.4
Gohyakumangoku Association No. 9/1801 yeast
I've seen it before but never had it.
Slightly sweet and spicy impression.
To be honest, I think it's the type that doesn't leave much of an impression 🤔.
I don't have any pictures, but I have now drunk sake from all 46 prefectures for now! Only Okinawa is left! The sake was an unfiltered, unfiltered, raw sake with a lot of gusto. It was delicious.

Katano Sakura's booth.
Yamano Sake Brewery, which is always a great help to us. Here we were served by Touji Hamada. The brewer was just at Takashimaya, and the president of the company was at a heated sake event in Kobe.
◉Katanozakura Theory02 (direct pumping ver.) Nama-shu
Kijo sake. Mild sweetness, not strong sweetness. The base is dry. This is delicious. It is good warmed up, the acidity comes forward and the sweetness is a little suppressed.
◉Katano-zakura, pure rice with a fresh yeast base, Hi-iri, Harazake, Aizan
Bitter-sweet but with a good amount of rice flavor.
◉Fukuro-hozuri shizuku Nakakumi-non-filtered sake
Sake with a serial number. The taste is full and full-bodied with a deliciously bitter aftertaste. It has a deliciously bitter aftertaste. I can't believe it was 3 years ago when I last drank it.
I was allowed to take a picture of Toji Hamada: 📷️
As one would expect from a well-known izakaya, the customers around us ordered sake such as Jyushiyo, Jikin, Kuroryu, and Isojiman one after another, but this was the first time I tried Osaka's Kata no Sakura. It was a delicious sake with a good balance of elegant aroma, sweetness, and lingering acidity.
