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 🤣.
