Izumo - Shimanami - Takamatsu (2)
A baby was born in September to my daughter who lives in Izumo (first grandchild), and I went to see her for the first time with my eldest son who lives in Tokyo. My wife was one step ahead with my second son who is on the Shimanami Kaido. It was a rare occasion for all of us to get together in Izumo, even though we don't all get together on New Year's Day.
At this timing, we went to Izumo Taisha Shrine to visit the shrine.
Near the Izumo soba noodle store was the Asahi Brewery of the Ten Rising Sun
It's in a traditional shopping street.
Tasting, 100 yen for 6 kinds😳.
1. Junmai Ginjo Asahi Asahi Sakonishiki
Clear, dry, easy to drink!
2.Junmai Ginjo Yachihoko
Brand name of Izumo-taisha Shrine's sacred sake
Dry, maybe a little strong
3. Nakamachi Enishikaru (The Ten Rising Sun)
It seems to be made by the people of Nakamachi shopping street. It seems to be made by people in Nakamachi shopping street.
I guess it's between 1 and 2.
4.Junmai-shu Jyuhasahi Gohyakumangoku
Slightly ricey, with a hint of sourness.
5. Junmai Kagamigusa (Omachi)
It has acidity and a more robust impression.
6.Junmai Genshu Juhasuhi
Even darker impression
Overall, is it dry and refreshing? A firm impression?
If I had to pick one, I'd say I prefer Yachihoko.
I heard that during the month of Kamiarigetsu, the brewers are busy with various events at shrines and so on.

Hello, Takashi-san.
Congratulations on your grandson's shrine visit 🎉.
And the neat sake activity is also quintessential ⤴️
I haven't had a chance to try Shimane sake, but it sounds like it would go well with a meal 😊.

Thank you, ma-ki-😄.
I don't really feel like I have grandchildren, but I'm meeting them for the first time and I was really looking forward to it 🥰.
Sake in Shimane has suddenly increased since my daughter moved over there 🤣.

Good morning, Jay & Nobby 😊.
It was a rare and nice opportunity to get all the kids together since they now live in different places.
It's frowned upon to say too much,
My grandkids are too cute😍.

Thank you, Pon 😊.
It's not often we all get together so it was a great opportunity 😃.
There was a brewery of Ten Asahi and a brewery of Izumo Fuji in the shopping street near the station in Izumo. (Izumo Fuji is closed) It was easy to get to since it was in the city 😄.
