Aroma of cooked rice and apple. In the mouth, the aroma of rice is obvious, sweet with a little bitterness, slightly pungent, with a lingering aftertaste. The overall impression is refreshing but with a little bit of clam flavor.
There was a sake tasting of Nada Gogo sake at the conference venue😋.
I didn't get a good look at the bottles 😢 so I don't have detailed information about the sake 😅...
I drank 3 kinds of sake.
Hamafukutsuru Junmai Daiginjo
We had it first. It has a firm sweetness and umami, with a spiciness at the end.
It was the best of the three.
Fukuju Junmai Ginjo Hyogo Nishiki Nama Sake
The second one was this one. This one is sweet like Fukuju. It was sweet and disappeared quickly. Hamafukutsuru had a big impact on me, so I felt it was a little short.
Nihonzakari Super Special Junmai Ginjo Sobana
This is the last one. It has a light sweetness followed by sourness. However, since it was the lightest of the three, I felt the taste was thin. I completely made a mistake in the order in which I drank them.
I wouldn't be able to work if I did this at the venue🤣.
Good evening, Manachie 🌟.
At the conferences in Niigata and Akita, liquor stores came to sell their products (we could taste them), but this is the first time it is written in the conference program 😋 and also in the daytime (15:00) 🤣.
Pon, good evening 🌟.
This conference is a big basic one. There was another one today, but my presentation was at 16:00, so I couldn't drink as expected 😭.
But I did go for a drink afterwards 😁.
Full of apple and pear aroma. Sweet at the beginning and spicy at the end. The flavor is light and elegant with a soft texture. The overall impression is quite moderate.
Event at Hanshin Racecourse (・・・・)
I came to enjoy sake and throw away money!
This one was heated!
It has a profound acidity and depth of flavor!
Hamafukutsuru is great!
It's going to be my favorite!
It was nice to be there for the first time since just before the new cologne!
But the number of people with children and sisters is increasing again!
I wonder if there are any coachmen or coachwomen in the local area anymore.
I feel so alienated.
I saw a bright future when a boy who looked like he was in kindergarten was yelling at me to come to the 9th spot.
Shinjo-san
Good evening...not only in Hanshin but also in Chuo, there is no coach shop 😁 Kawasaki has a coach shop next to the paddock that looks like a food stall.
I used to take my kids to Chuo because there are more and more families and couples and it's gourmet!
Koizo-san (´・ω・・`;)
I haven't been to Kawasaki yet, but there were stalls in Oi and other places.
It's interesting to talk with them.
I wonder if it is indeed just an old man who used to be there who comes to talk to you.
Nowadays, Chuo is a place to enjoy horses for 200 yen.
I have never encountered a coach shop,..,
Speaking of stall forecasting shops,
When I moved to Tokyo, "Sasaki's Predictions" for Oi horse racing was alive and well, very popular and in great form.
His predictions were said to move the odds.
I seem to be weak, so I'm easily approached.
I remember meeting people in Nagoya, Saga, etc.
I've been to Oi several times, and each time I look forward to listening to the stories that I hear.
I'm not sure if it's Mr. Sasaki, but it could be.
The 6th Japanese Sake Festival @ Osaka Bay Tower (11)
Koyama Honke Shuzo Nada Hamafukutsuru Brewery / "Hamafukutsuru" Hyogo Prefecture
I drank "Kukura" at the "HYOGO SAKE EXPO 2023" in Kobe Hankyu, so I drank one I had never had before.
Sogin Ginjo-shu: Sake for carbonated drinks only.
I frankly expressed my opinion on a product that is not yet on the market, a sake with carbonated water that I want people to drink very much.
They said it is about 5 degrees Celsius with 15 degrees Celsius divided 2 to 1.
It was served with soda, but my first impression was that it was too thin, and when I said I wanted it a little thicker, they poured more and I drank it😅.
I said I wanted it a little thicker, so they poured more and I drank it😅 The drink became a little thicker after pouring more and reminded me of an Asahi Cocktail Partner gin and tonic.
It reminded me of Asahi's cocktail partner gin and tonic. I asked him if it tasted good as a regular drink, and he let me drink it straight as well.
I told him it had a very unique flavor, and he said it was made to be mixed with carbonated water.
They let me draw a raffle for following their Instagram and gave me a sticker.
The 6th Japanese Sake Festival @ Osaka Bay Tower (11)
Sogin was participated as Hamafukutsuru, but Sogin is a project of young employees of the World Hawk Koyama Family Group (Kitashika, Yukitsubaki Sake Brewery, Echigozakura Sake Brewery, Koyama Honke Sake Brewery, Kyohime Sake Brewery, Koyama Honke Sake Brewery Nada Hamafukutsuru Brewery).
We drank
Sogin Ginjo carbonated sake
This product is not yet on the market. It will be released next year.
Of course, I drank it with soda.
It's refreshing and has a rumney-like flavor. It's like drinking gin or mojito. I'll buy it when it's released 🤔.
I drank it as is without mixing it 😅
Kukura Junmai Daiginjo Yamadanishiki
I forgot to drink it at the Kobe Hankyu event, so I tried this one too. I think I liked the Omachi better.
Japanese Sake Fest @ Osaka Bay Tower (・ω・`;)
I see that the sake is from Nada.
I recently found out that there is a small sake brewery in Nada and bought some Houmusume, which was outstandingly delicious!
And this Hamafukutsuru!
This is also wonderful!
It has a beautiful breadth of flavor and just the right amount of body.
The best part is the price: about 1,100 yen!
I wish there was one in my neighborhood!
When I go to Kobe for Onsen (hot springs), it is so close to the station that I might even stop by a sake brewery just for this!
