The following is a list of the ingredients of the brewery's newest product. Rice: 100% dewy leaf wind Percentage of polished rice: 50 Yeast used: Japanese Sake degree: -3.8 Acidity: Alcohol content: 17%. Water used for brewing: KASHIBA MIND is a genuine local sake brewed with only locally grown rice under the slogan "locally produced, locally brewed. Fruity aroma. It has a fruity aroma, a sourness that comes up in the mouth, a slightly peculiar koji-like aroma, and a richness with a depth and three-dimensionality that is unique to KASHIBA MIND, based on its umami. I wanted to register with Hatsuhonoka because the name of Joy Hikari is not on the label, but I can't... 😭 Can't register new anymore?

I heated it up. Good balance of acidity and umami ❗️ Best warmed up 😀.

Even though I live in the Kansai region, I rarely see this sake. The brewery had been outsourcing brewing to other companies since the toji retired, but resumed in-house brewing a few years ago. This was the only sake I purchased at the Japanese Sake Festival. The aroma is a bit vanilla-like on the nose. It has a fresh, raw sake-like flavor, with a refreshing sweetness that is instantly followed by bitterness and spiciness. Maybe it is the alcohol content, but the alcohol taste is a little strong. I feel like it gets more and more alcoholic day by day...

The 6th Japanese Sake Festival @ Osaka Bay Tower (8) Sawada Sake Brewery Co. Mr. Bouken wanted to drink "Kankikou" at the booth. The "Kankikou Junmai Shiboritate Nama Sake" was freshly squeezed out of the bottle. The freshness of the freshly squeezed sake is very strong, and the alcohol content is 18%, which makes it very heavy. The freshness of the freshly squeezed sake is very strong at 18% alcohol by volume, and the umami is as good as the freshness. Nanto Dakudaku The rice flavor is very assertive and heavy. Forgot to take a picture 💦. The lineup was not much different from the last Japanese sake festival, and I tasted only two kinds of sake, as I thought it would be better to taste them sparingly because many of them were high in alcohol content.

The 6th Japanese Sake Festival @ Osaka Bay Tower (8) I was looking forward to seeing Joy Hikari at this event. It's a sake from Nara, but I haven't seen it at all, probably because it hasn't been brewed in-house for so long.... I've only seen Izumi Yusai if that's what you're looking for. I wonder if they don't have to work hard for individual customers because they have a large customer called Akagakiya and a health food business. I got the impression that the warehouse was pretty quiet, too. I drank Junmai Shiboritate Nama Sake I was glad to find a sake that was not on the list. It had a fresh feeling typical of nama-zake. I think I was saying to Nemuchi, "I don't know what it is, but it looks like Nara 🤣. Nanto Dakudaku Nigori (nigori) sake. It has a strong sense of rice. Junmai Ginjo Little Joy It was gorgeous, fruity, and sweet. It is a Junmai Daiginjo, so it can't be helped, but I thought the price setting was a little expensive. Junmai Kurahara Sake This was served at the heated sake booth towards the end of the session. It has a gentle flavor and is a good everyday evening drink. I could drink it while lounging around 🤣. I bought the first one I drank. I was going to buy something else, but I forgot when I was drunk 🤣.

Japanese Sake Festival @ Osaka Bay Tower (Ω) It is a very mellow and gutsy sake. Is it too much to say that it has a sweetness reminiscent of bourbon whiskey Wild Turkey? I see they have a brewery in Gotodo. If I can go there on a weekday, I'd like to buy some! This time, I bought this sake and this one was too far away.

Shinjou-san, thank you for your support: ❗️ I've been to a lot of events lately 😁. Is it sweet with a kick, similar to bourbon ❓ It seems to have a unique taste 👍

(I'm a member of the "Maitre d'". I go to all the events that I can go to. I would like to go to the Kurabiraki festival, but I couldn't find one that fits my schedule. This sake had a lot of power! I thought it would be fine on the rocks!

Type: junmai ginjo, rice: Yamada Nishiki, polishing rate: 50%, yeast: No. 1901, alc.: 17% Aroma is fruity and classic for ginjo. with notes of pear and white flowers. Flavor is juicy with decent sweetness, mouth-filling umami and bitterness of alcohol. The bitterness lingers for a while. It is rather rich.

Sake found during GW return trip It's so good that I can't believe it's ranked 30th in Nara Prefecture! I googled it and found out that it has been re-established for about 5 years. I thought that if only it would become more well-known, it would easily rank in the top 5 in Nara Prefecture!

It has been a long time since I have had sake from outside of Hyogo. We enjoyed it lukewarm.

Booth of "Joy Hikari" by Sawada Shuzo, Nara Prefecture. This was my second visit. Last time I was not impressed because I drank it very late in the game, but this time it was perfect👍. The "Kankikou Junmai Ginjo Hatsuhonoka" 🔴 and the "Kankikou Junmai Kurabai" 🔴. Kankikou Junmai Kurahara Sake Joy Hikari Junmai Ginjo Little Joy" 🔴 "Joy Hikari Junmai Ginjo Tiny Joy Yuukyu no Hikari Junmai" 🔴 "Kikkou Junmai Ginjyo Tiny Joy The Hatsuhonoka had umami and richness, and I was deeply impressed by how delicious it was. The "Little Joy" also had a strong sweetness and umami flavor. The price is a bit high at 2,750 yen 😅. Kohjikko is also a revived brewery and has been brewing in-house for about 5 years now.
