Shikoku x Sake Country 2025: Sake Brewery Wonderland On Osaka - A Spectacle of Sake and Food from Shikoku (⑲)
With about 10 minutes to go, I thought to myself, "Well, I haven't had any Hakutsuru-nishiki from Ume-nishiki yet..." and headed for the sake brewery.
I was curious about the sake that Mr. Neemuchi was drinking at the Sake Expo in Harukas, but I forgot to drink it 😅.
The aroma is fruity.
The aroma is fruity, and the flavor and sweetness are both robust and delicious 😋.
While I was drinking Ume Nishiki, Nemuchi-san was drinking Minami and talking with the brewer.
After the event, we decided to go to Ikoma Sake Brewery where they were having a tasting event.
Yesterday, I arrived in Kagawa again from Okayama!
After enjoying chicken on the bone and 🍺, we went on our regular tour of the local supermarket. In addition to jakoten and spanish mackerel, I also found some ume-nishiki, which I will drink at the hotel ✨.
When you open the bottle, it has a softly sweet aroma of custard and sugarcane.
The mouthfeel is round and soft. The soft sweetness is tightened by acidity and astringency. It is not too sticky and is easy to drink!
It goes well with jako-ten (fish cake) and spanish mackerel.
The day ended with me wanting to eat jakoten endlessly.
Leading up to today👍
Good evening, Masaaki!
I was reminded once again of the charm of Kagawa, with its different qualities of sipping sake with fresh fish from the Seto Inland Sea or going all out with beer and meat on the bone 😋.
This is the third sake I bought at Tobu in Funabashi, and the first Ehime. I was going to buy a 4-goupe bottle of Ishizuchi, but after tasting Hanagaki, I decided to buy that one, and decided to buy Ume Nishiki, which has a 1-goupe bottle of Ehime. I will buy Ishizuchi another time...
It was quite good, sweeter and more umami than I expected, and I don't think I would have regretted buying the 4-glass bottle...I mean, 1-glass bottle is still a bit too much to drink😖.
Good evening, freelancer first generation man 😃.
Congratulations on your Ehime 🍶 burial ㊗️ with Ume Nishiki 🎉I've only had 2 bottles of Ehime 😅 so that's helpful 🤗.
Hello, Jay and Nobby!
Thank you very much. The only Ehime sake I can find is this one and Ishizuchi, so I have a feeling I will have to stop at two bottles myself... I guess I will have to go to Shikoku, huh?
