Hitachinokuni Masamune A Journey Through Time at E501 SAKIGAKE PLATFORM13 It was hiyaoroshi and the taste was a bit mellower, but the fundamental part of the flavor was that it was one of a kind. It was delicious 😋.

A Journey Through Time at E501 SAKIGAKE PLATFORM13 An event was held at Ueno Station using E501 SAKIGAKE, a converted E501 series train that was once (briefly) active on the Joban Line! In the train, we were able to enjoy Ibaraki's local sake! The first cup was a Daiginjo from Kiri-Tsukuba! It was a slurp and I drank it all up in no time!

At SAKE MEETING 2025 Autumn Needless to say, this was also delicious😋. Fuji Daigan Yamadanishiki Daiginjo (2025 National New Sake Competition Gold Medal winner) from Morishima Shuzo was also available at this event, but it was already out of stock when I visited the Morishima Shuzo corner, I guess you have to drink the most popular sake before you buy it! Also in terms of not forgetting the taste impressions 😂.

At SAKE MEETING 2025 Autumn The sake is said to have won a gold medal at an international wine competition and is served in the VIP section of MLB's Dodger Stadium. The first sip was fruity, with a well-balanced umami aftertaste.

At SAKE MEETING 2025 Autumn Taiheikai is brewed by Fuchu Homare in Ishioka City, which brews Watanabune. Taiheikai is said to have a longer history as a product. This brewery is also famous for reviving Watabune, a sake rice that once ceased to exist, and Taiheikai is also very tasty. Although there are many stores in the prefecture that carry Watashu, it is not easy to drink Taiheikai, so this was a good opportunity for me to try it. Like Watashu, it tasted fruity and went down smoothly!

At SAKE MEETING 2025 Autumn This was an autumn-aged Kimimandai from Tanaka Sake Brewery in Toride City, a local sake brewery. The sake had a perfect balance of sweetness and umami, with the sweetness and the umami of autumn!
