Buy Sandesi at a souvenir shop in Himeji
Rice polishing ratio 70%.
Alcohol 15
The aroma is subtle, and when you drink it, you can taste the muscat flavor of Banshu Issen!
Umami and just the right amount of spiciness.
It is not sweet but a little fruity, so it is delicious on its own or during a meal. ❣️
I went to Ako, Banshu with a Seishun 18 ticket 🚃.
The purpose is to see Ako Castle.
I got off the train in Himeji and had a shirasu-don (rice topped with young sardines) 🐟.
I wanted to go to a drinking place and a sake shop, but I had to hold off because of the car 🚙 at the end 😂.

Good evening, Pon-chan.
I see you went to Ako Castle 🎵.
The weather was beautiful and the blue of the sky looks great ✨.
I had an image of Banshu Ikken as dry, but if it's fruity enough to be enjoyed on its own, I might like it too! I'm thinking 😊.

Good evening, Pon 😃.
It's a 🚃drunken trip on the Youth 18 ticket: ☺️
Too bad you can't drink and eat 🍶 on a conventional train, it's hard to drink and eat 🍱 in the train 😅.
I remember Gravity System when I think of Banshu Isshu 🤔

Pon-chan, good evening 🌙😃❗Banshu Issen's spiciness and muscat flavor will keep you drinking as much as you want ❤I could have used a bigger bottle 😁💨💨I can't miss the "trial" when I go to Himeji 👍.

Good evening, ma-ki🦉.
It's a regular junmai sake, I was also imagining it to be spicier, but it wasn't that spicy 😆 I guess I'm used to spiciness 🤔.
Anyway, this one is easy to drink😊.

Good evening, Aladdin 🦉.
Gravity system! I remember it very well 😳I had to google it because I forgot the whole contents 🤣.
That's what gave it the muscat flavor!

Good evening pyonpyon 🦉.
Banshu Ikkyo is my favorite ❣️ I bought a bottle and went to "try" it 😁I remember there are all the sake breweries in Hyogo Prefecture, right? I remember I had a terrible time deciding which one to drink before 😆.

Good evening, Pon-chan ✨
I'm really interested in Banshu Issen 😍I can't find it at my local liquor store 😭I had an image of it being dry, but now I'm even more curious: ‼️

Good evening, Mr. Muro.
Banshu Ikken is known for its dry taste, but I don't mind it so much except for the fact that it says "dry" 😊I guess it's because of my stupid tongue! 🤣
I think Aizan is out right now 🤔 it's delicious, so if you can find it, please do!

Hi Pon-chan 😀
We also like Himeji Castle and Himeji Art Museum and often visit there, but every time I look for Banshu Ikken as a souvenir from home, I have never found it 😅.
It is sold in Osaka, so I don't have to go out of my way to buy it as a souvenir from home 🤣.

Hi Pon, ☀️
You are so youthful👍I'm ashamed to say that I've never heard of Ako Castle, I've never heard of its existence 😅.
I love the cloisonne series that Uma-san told me about 😘.

Hi Yasubeyesan 🐦🐦 I'm so jealous that you often visit Himeji Castle.
I'm so jealous of you because I love Himeji castle 😳👍Yes, you can buy it in Kyoto too 🤣I was wondering about the sake in Himeji, but my husband said Banshu Issen is definitely good and I'll get it here 😁.

Hi Maru 🐦.
When I was a student, I rode east to Tokyo and west to Hiroshima, but even Banshu-Ako became a pain 🤣.
I also prefer the Shippo series in Banshu Issen, ❣️ I think it's like the prototype of that one 🤔.

Good evening, Ponchan.
Ako castle is blessed with great weather, isn't it?
I'm sure you can find a lot of Banshu Ikken when you go out in the Banshu area, maybe I'll buy some next time I'm in the area for a meal 🤔.
Shirasu-don is also good 🤤.

Good evening, Ponchan 😃.
I like your trip on the Seishun 18 ticket👍.
And after the castle, rice bowl, miso soup, and sake 🍶!
It's great pictorially and I'm sure the actual pairing is the best match ❣️ 😋.

Good evening, Jay & Nobby 🦉.
I wouldn't have known about Ako Castle if it wasn't one of the 100 famous castles 〰😂.
Sandesi is easy and nice! I could understand why J&N bought so many last year 😆👍.

Good evening, Ofuji-san 🦉.

Banshu Issen is delicious! So far, no disappointments 😆.

I'm on a poor day trip 👣I'm trying to complete the 100 best castles, so I'm trying to get to the ones I haven't been to yet 😆 And while I'm at it, I'll have some sake 🤣I'm glad it's perfect while eating 👍.

Good morning, Pon!
I'm sure it's a shame that you couldn't go out drinking, but I can feel that you had a great time ✨.
[I'm learning a lot about words I didn't know such as "Ako Castle" and "100 famous castles" ✨.

Good morning, Jive 🐥.
It's not easy to go out for drinking 😂I would have walked to the station if it wasn't so hot 💦.
When I do go out, I always have the sake breweries, castles, and traditional buildings 😁 and they are often all in one place👍.

ゆーへー
Good evening, Pon-chan. ⭐︎
Before you knew it, you passed by our house and went all the way to Ako 🚈.
I also went to Ako last November, but I did not visit Ako Castle, but took a leisurely stroll around the streets of Sakagoe👟.
