I tasted it during the New Year holidays. I thought it was arabashiri, but the staff mistakenly put shiboritate in it 🤣. It was fresh and easy to drink even though it had been fired once.

Today, following yesterday's Aizan drinking event, I went to the Osaka Bay Tower's Japanese sake festival event 😀. I was informed in advance by bouken-san that there was a sake that Saku-san usually does not have, so I made a toast with his wife with that sake 😇. The sake was even clearer and fruity than Saku's usual sake, and we were very satisfied from the start 😀. During the live taiko performance by three women, my wife and I, who are both learning taiko, were overwhelmed by their amazing performance 😇. We were able to compare over 130 different types of sake, but my favorite was from Yamazaru, a brewery located in Asa, Yamaguchi Prefecture 😇. From the aroma to the mouthfeel, it was right up my alley👍! I had a chance to talk to the brewer and asked him about the stores in the Kansai area that carry it.

Junmai Ginjo🍶Aged Sake✨Snow❄️☃️ Aged sake, light yellow in color. Cold sake, matured, Daruma Masamune-like. Not heavy, warmed to 60 degrees. Soft around the edges. Mellow. ☺️ It's still a sake for warming up. I served it with scallop sashimi sent from my relatives in Hokkaido 😋The scallops were huge and delicious💕. Purchased at Iida Sake Shop @ Shiki.

Sukki-style. Firm sake with a strong sweet frame? The rest of the sake also has a strong sweet taste. It seems to me that the rest of the sake also has a strong sweetness to it. But it is not that sweet, so I think it is easy to drink.

Junmai 🍶Yamahai brewed unfiltered raw sake✨ Grain Ryoto 🌾. The 6th last sake of the 4th brewery of the Iida Sake Brewery Gokuraku Kai 😅. Bitter at first. The more you drink it, the more umami it tastes. Quite a complex taste. Tasting at Iida Sake Shop @ Shiki 20241026

Junmai 🍶Yamahai brewed sake ✨Fruitfulness🍁 穀良都🌾. This is the 5th sake from the 4th brewery of the Iida Sake Brewery Gokuraku Kai. It has a mature aroma. Warmed up, it has a delicious flavor. I would like to enjoy it carefully on a long autumn night. Tasting at Iida Sake Shop @ Shiki 20241026

Junmai Ginjo🍶Omachi🌾. Second glass of the 4th brewery of the Iida Sake Brewery Gokuraku Kai ✨. You can taste the umami but it's light and good to drink ☺️ I feel like I'm getting a different impression of Yamazaru. Tasting at Iida Sake Shop @ Shiki 20241026

I had okonomiyaki✨ I really want to eat pancakes! I was saying that, but then I realized we were at a monja restaurant! Almost the same because it's flour-based: 🫶🏻 The sauce is thick, so it goes well with the sharp and light sake! They were both delicious, but then I thought, "I like the combination of okonomiyaki and Yamazaru!" I thought "I like the combination of okonomiyaki and Yamazaru"!

At the after-party of the welcome party, we had a sake tasting, where we compared two different brands of sake, but they were mean and of the same brand. So, I couldn't guess, and in the end, we decided that the best sake is the atmosphere, lol.
