Shikoku x Sake Country 2025 Sake Brewery Wonderland On Osaka①
Entered the event for the first time in 6 years.
The venue was the 9th floor Sky Hall of Kyocera Dome Osaka.
Since 52 breweries in Shikoku were participating in the event, we couldn't visit all of them in 2.5 hours, so we decided to focus on the breweries we rarely see.
As usual, Dr. Bouken was with us.
First, we visited the booths of "Imakomachi" and "Yutaka" in Tokushima.
◉Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered
A clean acidity and a full-bodied flavor.
◉Junmai Daiginjo, unfiltered
The Junmai Daiginjo Mucho is a pure, polished, full-bodied, rich, and delicious wine. It was so good. The price was about 3300 yen including tax.
◉Yamansho
Slightly dry and refreshing. Not too spicy.
Imakomachi Daiginjo
The most expensive. The standard, excellent quality, with a full-bodied, all-rounded taste. Not very impactful.
In the Kansai region, Ohmune in Hyogo Prefecture seems to carry it on a spot basis. They can also send it to individuals by e-mail or phone.

Shikoku x Sake Country 2025 Sake Brewery Wonderland On Osaka - Shikoku's Sake and Food Spectacle - (1)
Nemuchi and I participated in the Shikoku Sake event held at Kyocera Dome!
The venue was 5 minutes before the event, so we arrived in time to get in, but the line was too long to get in in 5 minutes 😳 We lost about 10 minutes 💦.
We lost about 10 minutes 💦.
There was no sake list like at Japanese Sake Fest or Sake-1 Grand Prix 🤔.
We decided to focus on the breweries we hadn't seen before.
We started with Imakomachi.
It seems to be in the same area as Yoshimizu and Miyoshikiku, and Miyoshikiku has the same salad address, so they are neighbors!
I referred to the official site for the specs.
I drank
Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Harazake
Gohyakumangoku, 50% polished rice ratio
It has a beautiful taste and is slightly sweet. It is fire-aged, but I also felt a sense of freshness. The sweetness and acidity were well balanced.
Junmai Daiginjo Unfiltered Harajuku
Yamadanishiki, 40% polished rice
Fruity and sweet. I got the impression that Imakomachi is generally sweet.
Yamasho Junmai Ginjo Genshu
Gohyakumangoku, 60% polished rice ratio
Unlike the above two types, it is refreshingly dry as it claims to be super dry.
Daiginjo
Yamadanishiki 40% polished rice
Less sweet than the jun-dai, but delicious.

Shikoku x Sake Country 2025 Sake Brewery Wonderland On Osaka - A Spectacle of Sake and Food in Shikoku
It is crisp, dry, acidic, and has the strength of a pure sake.
However, it has a freshness that is not heavy.
Looks good for the coming season!
