It is sweet and has a habit of slipping down the throat.
It is recommended to drink it on the rocks, but enjoy it cold to find out what this lingering habit is!
We participated in the Saijo Sake Festival in Higashihiroshima City!
This is Kamoizumi Sake Brewery.
Junmai-shu (pure rice sake) is poured into a bamboo container and served from the faucet below!
Bamboo containers of various sizes are available,
I was able to choose the bamboo container of my choice and fill it with sake.
I have had Kamoizumi junmai sake by itself,
I have had Kamoizumi Junmai Sake by itself, but this bamboo sake has the aroma of bamboo soaked into the sake,
I found it to be mellow, round and deep in flavor.
Good morning, Mr. Mats!
A festival of alcohol is nice 🎵.
The weather looks nice and refreshing🍀.
The scent of the bamboo soaks into the sake - it looks good and has a nice atmosphere ✨.
It's a good sake time ☺️
☀️
Saijo Sake Festival.
We were even allowed to enter the courtyard of the brewery. I don't know if it's special because I don't know the daily schedule😅.
It's sake 🍶.
They put the sake 🍶 in a bamboo 🎋 of your choice ❗️
A little bit of alcohol. But the mouth feel is clean and refreshing. It is easy to drink because there is no stale taste.
You can choose your own bamboo 🎋 to take home, so I chose a bamboo 🎋 that I could put away on a shelf 😄.
It has joined my collection of sake cups 😆.
Good morning, Hiro-san.
I was admiring your beautiful photos✨.
The sky was blue and refreshing, and we enjoyed a cup of sake while touring the brewery at the sake festival: ⤴️
What a great moment 😊.
I love the bamboo sake cups 🎵.
Hi ma-ki, ☀️
Thank you 🙏.
We were blessed with beautiful weather so any pictures we took turned out beautifully 😄.
After all, drinking sake in a brewery is the best 😆.
The standing aroma is melon-like, but it is elegant and not assertive rather than floral. When you drink it, it is soft on the palate, as is typical of Saijo sake, with a sweet umami taste and a clean lingering finish that is not clingy.
I personally prefer Saijotsuru Shinsei or Sanyotsuru Concave, both also from Saijo, for 4-gouple bottles, but they are very gentle sakes for home drinking.

Second drink at Haneda Airport corner space
The rice used is Hiroshima Yatan and Shin Chimoto.
Classical flavor with a thick impression
It is hard to evaluate it after just one glass.
Hiroshima Expedition!
Junmai Daiginjo from Kamoizumi!
A fresh cup with a ginjo aroma.
The rice is polished to a 35% Yamada-Nishiki ratio.
It was a Junmai Daiginjo with a good balance.
Classic rice sake aroma.
The rice flavor is sweet and sour!
The nose is full of sweetness.
It's a little too much, but it's not bad at all,
It is a bit heavy, but it is well-balanced when paired with strong food.
The lingering aftertaste is not so persistent and mild.
Taste: 3.5/5
This Junmai Daiginjo-shu is brewed with 50% polished rice from the highest grade of sake brewing rice, Banshu's Tokusoku Yamadanishiki. It has a gorgeous ginjo aroma, a freshness of freshness taste, and the flavor of Yamadanishiki comes through clearly and transparently.
Thank you for your comment ma-ka-. So this is your first time with a packaged sake? I've been lucky enough to drink it a few times and it is a really good sake. I can see why it is so popular. Please try it again!
