The 25th Hankyu Brewery Festival (7) Lastly, a dark horse that we didn't expect to see at a department store event? Mr. Nomushi, a dark horse who we did not expect to come to a department store event! Even though it was a department store event, the sake brewery brought almost all of their sake in one bottle! I have a feeling of kinship with him since I talked with him quite a bit at the Shikoku Sake event at Kyocera Dome 😁. The atmosphere was somehow more intimate than other booths. Ehime and Hanaheizakura were standing side by side. It was cute that the brewer had "Kuramoto" written and sewn on his chest 😆. Honjozo sake The one we drank at Kyocera. It was sold in a four-pack bottle. Gutsy, powerful, and with a great rice flavor. The last time I drank it, I thought it was good, but this time I was less impressed. Special Honjozo Dry This bottle was only a shugou. It is a type that seems to be easy to drink. It is written as "dry" but it is easy to drink and I like it. Tankomaezake Ginjo-namaeshu This one is only available in 1 sho bottle. Spicy and strong? It tastes dry and strong? Tosenzake Junmai Ginjo-Nama Shu This is also only available in 1 sho bottle. I've bought and drank 5 gou bottles in the past. As many reviewers have said, it has a citrusy taste. Not as sweet as I've had in the past. I was mysteriously appealed to by an old Hawks fan at the Nomushi booth who said he was good friends with Buffaloes manager Kishida and retired T Okada 🤣.
