Sake from the Kikumori Fair at Asano Sake Shop Umeda 🍶.
Kikumori Sake Brewery was devastated by the Great East Japan Earthquake in 2011, when its brewery was partially destroyed, making brewing impossible for a time.
In 2014, the company borrowed a brewery that was going out of business in the neighboring city of Hanamaki with CF financing, and restarted and began brewing as an all pure rice brewery in Hanamaki City.
Currently, the reconstruction of the original brewery in Kitakami City is almost finished, and this season is the last for sake brewing in Hanamaki-shi.
Finally, brewing is scheduled to resume in February 2024 at the original Kikumori Brewery's reconstructed warehouse! We are looking forward to it 😊.
The brand name "Viktor-nage kara no jujigatame" comes from the finishing combo of President Fujimura, who was also a martial artist.
The face I've seen somewhere has a line in the eye, but this is the original story of the "Viktor method" (= a sales technique where the same sake is sold under similar different labels). This is the original story of the "Viktor method.
The third and fourth pictures have nothing to do with this fair, but they are concrete examples of the Viktor Business Method 😁.
The appearance is a mist white that retains a sense of transparency.
The aroma of cooked rice and freshly pounded rice cake is rich with a hint of fruity flavor.
From the feeling of gas that makes you shiver, the umami spreads with a slight bitter astringency, and it finishes with a transparent and beautiful sweetness.
Not dry but not sweet.
Very tasty. ☺️

Hi Aladdin-san!
I also had a drink at Asano Sake store in Hamamatsucho, but they beat me to it 😅.
It's a strange label, but it's pretty tasty 🍶.
