Hankyu Umeda Hankyu Brewery Festival (1)
An hour after Nemuchi-san's arrival, we arrived at the venue.
Nemuchi-san said he would be at Itano, so I met up with him here.
Itano is a joint development between Motox, a wine importer, and Takai Sake Brewery. The brewer and a person from Motox were there.
The concept of Itano is a food sake.
The label has been changed to a design that suggests it was designed with exports in mind.
The label was also the idea of Motox.
The special junmai label was inspired by a balloon competition held in Ojiya City, where the brewery is located.
Nemuchi-san asked if they were bringing any Tatomo and Takanoi.
Nemuchi asked him if he was bringing Tatomo and Takanoi, to which he replied, "No, we are here as Motox this time....
We tasted the following
Iyano Junmai Ginjo
Iyano Junmai Daiginjo Snow Storage Genshu
I thought both were the type of sake that goes well with meals.
I hope they bring Tatomo next time 🤔.
Good evening, Masha 😃.
I'm not the one with the good eye, it's Nemucci 😁If it was just me, I probably wouldn't have gone through with it 😅.
There was one other motocs case 🍷.
The fifth brewery in the "Hankyu Brewery Festival 2023".
Takai Shuzo "Iyano", Niigata Prefecture
Many of the products were jointly developed with "Motox," a trading company famous for importing wine, and the brewer and Motox employees were there.
Igano Special Junmai
Iyano Unfiltered Special Junmai Hiyoroshi (Hiyoroshi)
Iyano Snow Storage Junmai Daiginjo Genshu.
After talking with the brewer, we met up with the legendary bouken here.
Bouken-san was asking the brewer about labels, so I studied with him on the side.
I thought it would be easy to just bury the sake in the snow, but it turns out that it costs quite a bit of money.
I was allowed to try their "Iyano Snow Storage Junmai Daiginjyo Genshu," which is quite expensive.
I imagined a sake that would burst into fireworks in your mouth, so the label is also a firework.
It was delicious after all!
bouken, good evening 🌛Thank you very much for your visit to the brewery festival 🙇I guess I absorbed it quickly since you came sweating so much 😁Only the most expensive one here, I thought it was delicious because it was expensive after all 😅.
A clean and clear sake. Alcoholic 16%, so maybe a little alcoholic. Slightly melon-like taste. Sweetness is not that strong. The cleanness is impressive.
It was delicious! Gohyakumangoku rice
It has a touch of sweetness, but it is elegant and leaves a clean sweetness in the aftertaste. The label says it is delicate and fresh, but I drank a lot of it because it was too fresh.
4.5
At Hachinohe shopping
Alcohol 17%.
Sake degree +2
Gohyakumangoku
On the back label
I tried it because it said "fresh and fruity" on the back label.
Opened before KOKIHARU SHIZUKU
The first day after opening the bottle
It has a sweet taste followed by a sharp alcohol taste.
A little bit difficult to drink...
With grilled mackerel, it has a strong sweetness.
Salmon grilled with saikyo gives it a crispy taste.
I wonder if it's for a food wine 🤔.
When it is heated up, the acidity comes out.
Personally, I like it warmed up and cooled down.
3 days after opening the bottle, it was served cold.
The sweetness increased and the alcohol taste decreased 😋.
Kab-san konbanha (ˆ꜆) .
Correct answer (ˆ꜆ . ̫ . ). ᐟ. ᐟ💮.
I was looking for a different Aomori sake, but I couldn't find it 💦.
I'm glad I tried different ways to drink it and found my favorite 😊.
