Hanshin Department Store Event
October 8 - 14, 2025 (1)
I was heading to KITTE Osaka for an event where I could sample Kochi sake... and on the way there, I stopped by.
Land of Water Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama Sake
A fresh, dark, sweet, slightly chocolatey sake with a hint of chocolate in the mid-palate. The taste is not too pungent. This is my favorite type.
Junmai-shu ◉ Junmai-shu mellow and dry
17% alc. Sake meter +10.
It has a strong umami taste with a clean dry aftertaste. The tangy stimulation on the tongue lasts for a long time.
◉Amenodo Tokubetsu Junmai Sake Inami
The mouthfeel is refreshingly light and the rice flavor spreads gradually. The rice flavor is gradually spreading and the taste is mildly dry.
◉Amano-no-do Junmai Ginjo Hiyoroshi
A mild, but well balanced sake, with a mild, yet firm taste of rice flavor and a bitter aftertaste.
◉Amenado Junmai Daiginjo 45
Fruity sweet aroma with a good balance of umami and bitterness. Good balance of umami and bitterness.
The mannequin who served us this time was a familiar face, but it seems that Amano-no-do will not be coming to the event again for a while. The price of rice, the cost of living, and the cost of labor have made it difficult for them to come to the event.
The second drink at Uokiku was hiyaoroshi from Amano-do.
The aroma and the sensation in the nose are peculiar, but the balance of umami and sweetness is good and easy to drink!
The side dish was corn tempura!
