During my trip to Gifu, the National Yamashiro Summit Ena Festival and Iwamura Castle Thanksgiving Festival were being held, so I went to Iwamura Brewery, which is owned by a female castle owner. The event also offered an inokuchi (sake cup) for 1,000 yen and 10 stamps for drinking sake, so I went to the Iwamura Brewery, where I got 4 stamps and tasted a fantastic castle. This is delicious! I wanted to buy some as souvenirs, but they were sold out. I want to drink it again somewhere.

At a customer's general meeting, we have an Ottersai drinking contest.
The last one was 20% to 30%.
It has an elegant taste. It goes well with cheese. It's like a fine wine.
Personally, I like 30% to 90%.
I found out later that the recommended order of comparison was the other way around. ↓↓↓
When you compare them, please try 23→39→45 in that order. The higher the polish, the more delicate the taste.
It is difficult to tell the difference if you drink them in reverse order.
Let's compare again 😥.

Hashi-zake at Tennoji. Drinking from noon.
We went to Uoharu, which we had reserved as our fourth restaurant.
Uoharu has a wide selection of sake.
The only sake I was able to capture in the photo was Kaiun Shukuzake.
It is a sake that goes well with fish.

This one was also chosen on a trip to Hiroshima for drinking at home, something not often seen outside of the prefecture.
It has a high alcohol content of 19 degrees.
It is dry and has a strong taste. It would go well with grilled fish.

On a trip to Hiroshima, I chose something that is not often seen outside of the prefecture for drinking at home.
The brewery is located in the basement of a building in the city and is run by a single brewer and toji (master brewer), so the production is small and precious. The sake is made from Hiroshima rice and water.
I have never had any other Horaizuru sake, so I cannot compare it to this one, but it is fruity and easy to drink.

This is the first sake I popped after drinking it at a restaurant the other day.
I bought it for drinking at home.
It's supposed to be a summer sake to be chilled, so I drank it very chilled at home too.
The alcohol content is 13%, and I could drink it in gulps, so I finished it right away.

At Kitashinchi Soba Restaurant Toki.
We started with beer and then Isohajime (I forgot to take a picture).
After that, we were served a sake that was not on the menu, "Hitakami," which is the owner's secret sake. The back of the label also has a picture of sushi on it.
The sake is a summer junmai ginjo, so it is refreshing and easy to drink.
We finished off with a bowl of jyuwari soba (buckwheat noodles).

It is said to be a summer sake to be drunk chilled, with a low alcohol content of 13% and a sweetness that makes it easy to guzzle. This is the first time I've had it, but I wanted to repeat the experience, so I went online and bought a bottle. I am looking forward to drinking it at home.

One-day business trip to Tokyo. Ginza Funagata Otemachi Branch
Third drink. This is also my first time.
It's nice to have a meal on a business trip because there are brands that are rarely seen in the Kansai region.
The fourth cup was my favorite, but I forgot to take a picture of it.
Then it was time for the bullet train, and we were done.
