The R6BY All Japan New Sake Competition open tasting event was held in Ikebukuro, Tokyo on July 12, 2012.
I was able to attend the event in conjunction with my training trip!
It was a spectacular venue with 410 of the 809 R6BY sake entries and 410 of the prize winners all in one place 🍶🍶🍶🍶.
The time limit was 3 hours⏰.
I went to the event to at least taste 202 Gold Award-winning sakes.
As a result, I was able to taste all the gold medal-winning sakes except for a few that were out of stock, as well as other prize-winning sakes that I was interested in!
It was the first time in my life that I tasted more than 200 sakes in one day.
It was a valuable tongue experience: ☺️
Checking in was my sake of choice, Kirizukuba 🍶.
No notes...
Modest but gorgeous aroma, soft velvety mouthfeel, sweetness that melts and opens in the mouth, extremely smooth and delicate acidity, round and soft umami, finish that seems to disappear rather than swallow, and a wonderful lingering finish.
This is a drop of wine squeezed out by a master brewer who has concentrated his knowledge, experience, and skill.
I would like to continue to study so that I can properly understand its value and convey it emotionally.
It was an opportunity to get drunk.
Thank you very much for your hospitality.
By the way, I spent about 20 minutes in total at the beginning and the end of the event just trying out the "Sake Sensory Evaluation Standard Reagent" 😅.
It's a rare chance to smell the individual aroma components correctly 😁.

Good evening, Aladdin. I see that you have attended a thorough training course on sake at your company 🤣I am surprised that you sniffed the reagent at the beginning and end and tasted more than 200 sakes! Now that you are enlightened about sake, I am more and more curious about your future 😊.

Good evening, Aladdin 🌛.
That's a huge amount of sake to taste 200 sakes in 3 hours 😲and I didn't know that there were non-gold medal-winning sake as well 😓.
［I didn't know about the Sake Sensory Evaluation Standard Reagent, I'd like to try it 🤔.

Good morning, Hirupeko 😃.
It was really a training-like experience 🍶.
I was not lucky enough to experience the reagent this time as I was not able to participate in chuin's event before!
I know it's often difficult to do things solo, but I'd like to keep improving 😄.

Good morning, Gyve 😃.
This time it was more about learning a new experience than having fun, but it turned out to be fun: ☺️
The reagent is sold by the Japan Brewers Association for about 50,000 yen and allows you to experience 19 different aromatic components such as capueti and vinegar iso👍.

Good evening, Mr. Aladdin 🌃
I wish this event was held in Kansai in combination with the National Sake Fair 😭
I am so jealous that you were able to taste more than 200 sakes from each brewery 😊.

Hello bouken 😃.
Yes, I'm so glad to hear that. I was not able to attend the sake fair 😌.
I only had sake that I wanted to taste carefully, one sake at a time, but everything is an experience and this time I decided to do a flash tasting 😄.
