To commemorate the opening of the Shinkansen bullet train, we are participating in the 2nd Bishu Competition 2024 in Fukui this year 😁. I was told that the sake tasting would feature sake that is hard to find in Fukui, so I joined the event after working the night shift. First of all, I found a sake that I was interested in, so I opened the event with a drink 🍶. Fukuwagura Junmai Ginjo [The sake brewery owned by Imuraya, famous for its Adzuki Bar, so let's see what it's like! A fruity rice aroma similar to muscat, a smooth, slightly thickened mouthfeel, a sweet umami reminiscent of syrup, a sharp finish, and a sweet aftertaste. You can feel the brewing quality of an ice cream maker. I think this may be the first sake I've ever tasted that has this much molassesiness. [It would be fun to pour it over an adzuki-bar ✨.

Hi Jive, good evening. It must be very hard for you to attend the big tasting after working the night shift 😲. I was curious about this sake from Mie, and hearing that it is a sweet sake makes me suddenly want to drink it: ⤴️

Hi Gyve 😃 I've commented a few times on Sake no Wa here! I love azuki🫘 bar ice cream, even if it's sweet 😋, but I saw it at a liquor store in Chiba the other day and passed on it 😅I'll try to buy it next time👍.

Good morning, ma-ki-san! I was up at 4:30 the next morning after a night shift of drinking, so I was very sleepy 💦. I was curious about the sake brewery that was at the tasting, so I had it first 😁.

Hi Aladdin ☀☀☀☀. I was wondering about you and your love of azuki bars😁. I talked a little with the guy at the brewery and he said he wanted to express his expertise in making ice cream well ✨. If you find one, please try it 😋.
