Otona no Shukugaku Ryoko (School Trip for Adults) Shimane #1
We visited Iwami Ginzan Silver Mine during the daytime and stayed at
Onsen-tsu Onsen♨️
A small hot spring resort that I saw by chance on TV📺.
A small town with only 3 inns.
But the hot water from the source ♨️ is just great ❗️
Kaiharu chose local sake (🍶) and draft sake!
The seafood-only kaiseki cuisine is perfect in quality and quantity.
Sake goes well with it!
Good morning, Harry 😃.
We've been waiting for you! School trip for adults: ‼️
Now you're in Shimane 🤗Great start with sightseeing, hot springs ♨️ and local fish & sake 🍶♪
Hi Harry 🐦.
Nice school trip for adults! I'm so jealous that you went to Iwami Ginzan 😻I had a hard time getting here and had to forgo it✨.
♨️ and the food and drinks 🍶There's nothing missing 😊👍
Hi Jaynobi 😃.
I never get tired of all the things to do in Japan no matter where I go.
I'm planning the next one in my head right now 😃 Oh, you drank Tasake, I found it too but I didn't go through with it, I prefer the good ones at standard price 😅.
Hi Pon-chan 😃
When I go there, I want to see this and that, but I have a problem that I can't take my time to go around as much as I thought 😅 because the hot springs ♨️ and meals 🍶 at the inns are also important!
Hello, Harry. Iwami Ginzan Silver Mine and Onsen-tsu Onsen are the places I would like to visit in Kaiharu! I'd like to take the time to visit these places 😊It's getting warmer and warmer and I feel like traveling 🌸
Hirupeko, I've been to many places, but it's hard to find such a simple place, not only foreigners but also few Japanese people😅.
Also, I couldn't post a picture of it, but I'm a big fan of Iwami Ginzan silver candy, you can't find it anywhere else ❗️
The fourth cup? Ishi no Kanbase, Ishi means stone, Kanbase means face, so who is this guy? I don't know.
The cloudy sake is actually very fruity♪ Juicy sweetness like pineapple, calm acidity, a lingering short bitter clean feeling, delicious and easy to drink!
For the second drink, I asked the owner for a recommendation on an out-of-prefecture sake✨.
When it came out, I asked him if it was Shizuoka, and he said it was Shimane. I asked him if it was Shizuoka and he said it was Shimane, which I completely misunderstood 💦.
This sake is from a sake brewery in Onsunzu-cho, Ota City.
This is embarrassing 😅 I went to Ota City in Shimane last fall to see it.
Polishing ratio 90
Alcohol content 17
100% Yamadanishiki produced in Sanbei Town
No additive yeast.
It has a dry taste with rice flavor, woody flavor, acidity, and punch.
It is truly dry.
It was a complete change from Miwazakura and had a classic and complex flavor typical of Shimane sake.
Next is Kaiharu's Namahashiroshi, Fire-ignited raw sake
Yamaguchi is the name of the master brewer.
It is written on the label in large letters, and the name is pushed to the forefront.
It is a 1BY sake, so it must have been aged for about 6 years, but there is no sense of maturity and it tastes beautiful!
I thought it would be more suited for warming sake, but it's also quite tasty cold.
I got the impression that it's a proper and delicious sake.
Honshu's best has arrived 😊 to Icoma-san.
I was able to drink the sake I purchased on my recent trip to Shimane and Hiroshima!
Sake purchased at Wakabayashi Sake Brewery in Kaiharu.
It looks like a quaint building that I would love to visit 😌.
I had an image of Kaiharu as a strong and peculiar sake, but this one has a fruity and modern quality.
I couldn't believe it was a +7 sake, but it had a sweetness to it that I really enjoyed 😋.
According to the internet, it's a local limited edition, unfiltered unpasteurized sake!
I thought it was unusual that they used Tsuyahime even though it's not from Yamagata!
Kaiharu Junmai Dry
I also chose this one!
Shimane Prefecture has a lot of sake 💦.
This one is a bit lower than the previous sakes at room temperature💦.
I went back to Shimane for a Buddhist memorial service and stocked up on a lot of Shimane sake.
Kaiharu is a sake from the hot spring town of Yunotsu.
This brewery's sake is spicy. Even though it is a fresh sake, it is spicy.
This time it was a new orikarami sake.
I don't really like nigori (a bitterness in sake), but a dry light nigori is different.
It is a good sake with Japanese food and ponzu.
This is a perfect food sake.
