Walking tour of temples, shrines and sake breweries21❓😅😅
As I wrote yesterday, tomorrow is the anniversary of my mother's death, so every year on the National Foundation Day holiday, I go on a walking tour to visit temples in the 33 sacred sites in the western part of Japan 😀.
I don't have enough merit to go to the temples 🤣.
This year I went to Otsu, Shiga and asked for offerings at two temples, Ishiyama Temple and Mitsui Temple 😀.
Since I was in Otsu, I decided to visit the sake brewery, Hirai Sake Brewery, where Asakayousei is brewed 😀.
I thought they were open because the information said they were closed irregularly, but unfortunately they were closed today 🥲.
I decided to open a bottle of Shinmasa today on the Shin-Kaisoku train on my way home to open a bottle of delicious sake when I was disappointed 😇.
When I got home and read Sake-no-wa, I found that Aladdin-san drank the exact same sake😇.
I'll leave all the comments to Aladdin, but they are all delicious even though they are completely different from both the Izumi and Jikin sakes we compared 😇.
The deep, sweet and umami flavor of the Imi is outstanding, the sweet, umami, bitter and spicy of the Jikin is well balanced, and the fresh, delicious rice flavor of the Shinsei Viridian can be enjoyed...they are all delicious😇!
It was a nice and tasty home drinking comparison😇

Good evening, Yasbay 😃.
Sorry to hear about the Hirai sake brewery, but I'm sure your mother is pleased 😊.
Viridian, I envy you for your ongoing drinking as our bottles are already empty 😄.
It's an awesome drinking experience, I can't believe you're drinking at home: ☺️

Good evening, Yasbay 😃.
I am sure your mother will be pleased 😊.
Jikkomai with its balance of sweet, tasty, bitter and spicy, and Shinsei with its sense of rice.
That's exactly my impression 😃.
I'd like to try it since I've never had it before 😦.
Looks delicious 😋.

Yasube, thank you for making the long trip in the cold 😊.
Sorry to hear about Hirai Shoten, but I'm sure your mother must be pleased ✨This delicious sake will be a good memorial service 🙏.

Good evening, Aladdin 😀
I'm too chicken to drink hard-to-find sake unless I have a reason for doing so 🤣.
On the other hand, if I have a reason, I'll open the bottle continuously 😅.
I'd like to drink and compare the sake for the next 4 days 😇

sinsaku 3, good evening 😀
I'm thankful that I can get Imi-san at least once a year at a liquor store near me 😀.
Is there a liquor store where I can get Niimasa-san regularly, so I can open a bottle normally... 🤣.

Good evening, Pon-chan 😀
Hirai Sake Brewery said their store was closed irregularly, so I just assumed they were open on days when customers are more likely to gather!
Asakayou-san is in a liquor store I frequent so I don't have to go there 😅.
