The 2nd National Sake Breweries' Sake and Talk Party @ Kyoto Miyako Messe, hosted by Sake-Taker Nissigawa.

This was the third sake at Hayakawa Shuzo, which brews Tamitsu.
It is a Junmai Daiginjo of Omachi.
The Junmai Daiginjo has a fine aroma that is not too gorgeous, and the aroma of Omachi rice is beautiful and very intoxicating.
The taste has a different intensity from the special junmai, very clean and fine, yet the firm sweetness of the rice is pleasantly in harmony with the acidity, and a firm umami can also be felt, and it finishes nicely.
The aftertaste is also long and wonderful.
The special junmai brought out all the flavor of Omachi, while the junmai daiginjo brought out the best parts of Omachi.
It was wonderful.
I was not told about it on the spot, so I was uninformed, but this was a gold medal-winning sake from the National New Sake Competition of 2023BY.
I noticed it when I saw the photo at the time of this posting.
The sake brewer did not boast about it, nor did he put his nose to it (although I like that kind of brewery). I fell in love with Mr. Hayakawa, who talked about sake politely with a soft expression on his face, and this sake.
It would be expensive to buy it, but I want to buy it.
Thank you very much for your hospitality 🍶.
