Japan Sake Brewery Exhibition 2024" in Aichi
I stopped by the exhibition at JR Nagoya Takashimaya and tasted a little bit of various sakes.
Harada Sake Brewery, Chita-gun, Aichi Prefecture
Ikumichijii
The name is "Ikumichijii". It is said to have originated from a well used by Yamatotake in this area (Ikumichi) in the old days.
It does not mean an old man who is enthusiastic about raising and educating children.

Good evening, Jay and Nobby!
I tasted quite a few of them, though only a few 🤭.
I can read it now 🍶 but I didn't at first 😅💦.
Please visit ❗️ and enjoy 😂👌👌
Gentle sweetness and an assertive acidity compared to the sweetness. Later, the aroma of alcohol comes in with a twang, and it feels like it is cut off.
Throughout the whole bottle, a sense of maturity is felt. I can also taste the flavor of the rice.
The reasonable price is also a plus.
Shizuku-tori sake from my humble favorite, Ikumidoi-san.
The aroma is gently fruity. It is berry-like with acidity.
The mouthfeel is gentle, but the volume expands with both sweetness and dryness. It has a very beautiful structure with a disappearing aftertaste.
A good sake for stand-alone drinking. I think it would also work well as a heated sake, perhaps because of the image of Ikumichii 👌.
This sake is made by a technique called Fukuro-hozuri. It has just the right amount of refined sweetness and fresh sharpness, and I have come to know another delicious sake.

Hatsusei Michii!
Refreshing blue bottle of summer sake💙.
It has a sourness typical of summer sake, but it is moderate compared to other summer sake.
It is well balanced with the umami flavor and goes down easy 😋.
Gone quickly👍
Our strawberries are sweet 🍓.
Good evening, Haruei Chichi!
I often see this at liquor stores in Nagoya, but this is my first time drinking it too😊.
Don't say that, just drink it and come 🤣.
Japanese Sake Brewery Exhibition 2023" Tasting 🍶13
Last month, on my way home from work
I stopped by the "Japanese Sake Breweries Exhibition 2023" at JR Nagoya Takashimaya and tasted a few sakes from various breweries in a tiny tasting cup 😋.
I didn't make any notes, so my impression of the taste was normal, unimpressive, or unmemorable 😅🙏🙏.
I went there with a empty stomach, so I was drunk by the end 🥴.
More to come!
Local Aichi booth section😊.
13 Sei Michii
Sake from Higashiura-cho, Chita-gun, Aichi Prefecture🍶.
Ikujii is the name of the town.
It is said that there is a well that Yamatotakeru used in the past in Ikumichi Ikuji, where the brewery is located, and that is where it was named after. ☝️
Limited edition
Usually, no impression 😅

Soft😅❓
It seems to be a sake which is made by a time-consuming Fukuro-hozuri (hanging in a bag) process.
Purchased at Nagoya Sakae station.
I fell in love with this sake at a corner shop.
Good aroma. Good taste.
Simply delicious, modern sake.
I can enjoy sake more when I drink it at home.
