The 8th Osaka Takashimaya Sake Festival
Daishichi's booth.
I had some sake I wanted to check out from Iji-san, and the mannequin at the booth was familiar to me, so I stopped by one last time before leaving.
I greeted the mannequin first, and the brewery staff was busy closing the register for cleanup.

It had a much more old sake feel than the previous one, with a stronger caramel-like peculiarity. I remembered that the carameliness became milder when it was heated up.
This was the end of our 7.5 hour tasting pilgrimage.
I joined Iji-san at the station and we made it home without incident.
Thank you very much for your company.
Nemuchi, thanks for the Takashimaya review 😊.
7 and a half hours 🤣It's great that you get to drink, but it's also great that you have that many tastings! I can't drink a lot, but I'd love to see the drinks lined up 😆.
Pon, thank you for taking the time to post this long series of posts 🙇 I usually spend about 7 hours here, but I can't always visit all the booths 😅, but just seeing all the different types is enough to get me excited 🤣.

The aroma is sweet with a hint of koji.
But it is not that sweet.
