HYOGO SAKE EXPO 2023⑯.
Daikoku Masamune, which I have not been able to buy because of all the tastings. I am always sorry 🙇.
I tasted the following
Chiyogami Junmai Ginjo
Benitenjo Junmai Ginjo (forgot to take a picture)
I think I may have had something else, but I was too engrossed in the conversation to remember 🤣.
Chiyogami is different from the Daikoku Masamune I've had, it's refreshing, slightly sweet, and easy to drink. They use Chiyogami for the labels, and all the labels are different.
Benitenjo is a collaboration with Glass Mask? The label is drawn by Suzue Minouchi. The label was drawn by Suzue Minauchi.
It was fruity and delicious.
I was so absorbed in talking with the brewer that I forgot to take a picture of Benitenjo.
I heard an unfortunate story here.
Yamamoto Sake Brewery in Kuise has closed down... 😢.
I think they closed at the end of September.
The owner's son passed away a few years ago, and the mother and her daughter-in-law were running the business, but it was tough for them to continue. It's a shame, because the mother's warm service was very good.
