25th Hankyu Brewery Festival [2nd half] (2)-1
Yukihikosan booth.
I had a good impression when I tasted it in 2023. I tasted all of them except for the ultra-harsh one, and had a long talk with the brewer, and became a complete fan. The brewery is located in Himeji, but it takes 40 minutes by bus from Himeji Station, and it is made by two people. Only 3% of the sake is shipped out of the prefecture.
Junmai sake
Fruity aroma. Slightly alcoholic and more refreshing than classical sake.
Junmai Ginjo
Slightly acidic, with a deep and slightly refreshing taste. Slightly refreshing.
◉Yamahai Junmai Yoboku 100nen
Tasted at room temperature. The rice used for this sake is Benkei. The sake is brewed with Benkei yeast and temperature controlled to reproduce the brewery's 100 year old brewing process. It has a complex taste with a strong bitter and astringent aftertaste.
◉Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama-zake
Mellow, fresh, fruity, rich, and full-bodied. Quite to my liking. I had the same impression before.
Junmai Ginjo Yume Nadeshiko
A gorgeous aroma, with a rich, sweet flavor and richness. The aroma is gorgeous, with a deep sweetness and richness, and a slight sourness on the finish. I like it better than before.
Junmai Ginjo Nama Sake Aizan 1801
A bit more acidity than sweetness, with a bitter aftertaste. It had a nice bitterness, just like I've come to expect from Aizan, but I'd like to see a little more sweetness.
It continues.

Hello Nemuchi!
I heard that you can make a day trip when you go to an event in the center of Himeji, but if you go to Sannomiya, you will have to stay overnight, which sounds very difficult 💦.
