The 8th Osaka Takashimaya Sake Festival ①.
I couldn't go on Saturday because of work, so I joined the festival on Sunday.
Before meeting up with Umaumauma-san, I went to the Eiko-Fuji booth for some sake that I had heard from Nemuchi-san, who had joined the festival the day before, that there were only a few bottles left!
No one from the brewery came to the booth.
We drank
Asterisk Dry Junmai Sake
It's a light and refreshing dry type of Eiko-Fuji.
It has a more classic atmosphere than the retro fresh-stored sake we had the other day.
Gravity Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama Nigori Sake
This sake is only available at this event.
Nigori sake often has a bitter taste, but it was sweet and juicy and delicious.
ZEBRA Ice temperature aged Junmai Daiginjo Unfiltered Nama Sake
The rice is Gohyakumangoku. It seemed to be spicy, so I didn't drink it until now, but it had a strong umami flavor and was sweeter than Gravity.
Shin Shin Junmai Daiginjo Unfiltered Nama-shu Tengami
This is a sake made from "shinryoku" (divine power). This is the first time I've seen this sake, but I searched for it and found that it has been in the lineup for a long time.
It is gorgeous but not too flashy and has a calm taste 😋.
Daiginjo-Ko Sake Hitori Yogari (Old Sake Brewer's Hitori Yogari)
This sake is made with 40% polished rice and costs almost 5,000 yen. This is the first time I've seen it.
I thought it was an aged sake because it says "Kozakaya" on the bottle, but it was beautiful and had a little sweetness to it.

It looks like they had about 10 different kinds lined up, but all the others were sold out. I guess it's one of those things where you don't get to go to many events.
They also sold a sake that cost about 120,000 with a 1% milling ratio 😳.

Hi Nemuchi ☀☀☀.
The one I was after was replenished and pretty much there, or they said it was only for what was in line 🤔.
I haven't been to the big seven 💦 did you find anything good?
