Hankyu Brewery Festival (1935)
Rashomon, which I drank only once before.
We tasted the following
Rashomon Junmai Daiginjyo Nama-Nagara Sake
Rashomon Ginjo Bottle-stored Unpasteurized
Rashomon Houou Ginjo Nama
Rashomon Junmai Daiginjo Bottle-stored Ruri
Rashomon Ryuju Junmai Daiginjo
Rashomon Junmai Daiginjo Nakadori Bottle-stored Genshu
The Junmai Daiginjo Nama Sake is quite expensive, and is delicious as it should be. The Houou Ginjo-nama is a stable taste, although I have had a similar spec in the past. The label has changed, hasn't it?
I'm sure the high class was good too 🤔.
I'd like to visit this brewery since it's relatively close to JR Wakayama station. I don't know if they sell directly 🤔
Hankyu Brewer's Festival⑱.
I was curious about Fukuju because I often see it but I had never seen the label before 😁.
I tasted
Junmai Ginjo Namaishige Mature Sake
Junmai Namaishu
Junmai Ginjo Nama-Nagaraju
Junmai Daiginjo Black Label
I think the black Junmai-Daiginjo Nama-Ginjo Nama-Harashi-Shu was delicious.
When I mentioned the denim label I had bought before, the brewer was pleased and said something about it, but I forgot what it was 🙄.
Hankyu Brewer's Festival⑰.
Kumaya Sake Brewery in Okayama.
Since they are here on a Motox project, the brand name is Iori only.
The brewer was so pissed off that he was complaining about Motox 🤣 he was saying "don't fuck with me" 😅.
Well, there are many things....
The tasting was
Iori Bizen Omachi Unfiltered Junmai Ginjo Genshu
Iori Bizen Omachi Unfiltered Special Junmai
Iori Bizen Omachi Unfiltered Special Junmai Hiyaroshi-genshu
Iori Bizen Asahi Unfiltered Junmai Ginjo Genshu
I think I drank the Junmai Daiginjo but forgot to take a picture of it 🤣.
I think he said it was a good one. I think he said the quality was good.
I have had Bizen Asahi nama-shu and hiyaoroshi in the past.
Iori is all good👍.
I would like to try the Omachi draft next.
Hi bouken 👋
I've had Iori too and it's my favorite brewery of Ishichi 🤗.
But still, it's only at the brewery festival that you can hear the brewery's complaints 🤭.
Good morning, T-Kaji.
I want to drink Ishichi backwards, but I've only seen it when I went to Okayama 😥. I've only seen it when I went to Okayama 😥It's interesting that some brewers speak their mind 😁.
Good morning, Pon-chan!
I guess they can't bring the regular brand like Iyano 🤔I was too drunk to remember the fine taste differences, but I just remember it was delicious 🤣.
Hankyu Brewer's Festival⑯.
Wakatakeya in Fukuoka.
According to Nemuchi-san's information, the brewer passed away in June this year.
I read on social networking sites that it happened suddenly and I am sorry to hear about it. I am very sorry for your loss.
We tasted
Debut
Kamudachi Unfiltered Nama Sake
Za Junmai Unfiltered Nama
Kei Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama-genshu
Kaorofu Genroku no Shu
Hakata Neri Sake
Kamudachi is sweet and tasty, could have bought it 🤔.
I've bought and drank the Kei in the past and it's still as good as ever!
The 馥郁 Genroku no Sake has a strong sense of maturity
Hakata Nerizake is like a fusion of amazake and yogurt
I asked about the distributors and it seems there are two in the Kansai area, one of them is a Kyokusha Sake Shop in Kyoto, I forgot where it is.
I don't remember where it is, but it seems to be a real store in Kyoto.
Good evening, Mr. Chidori 😃.
I didn't know about it until I heard about it from Mr. Much either 😢.
I searched and it was a label I've seen before, I think they used to bring Nudy 🤔I'd like to try Nudy 😋.
Hankyu Brewery Festival (15)
Harada-san next to Naruto Tai. I've been putting it off for a long time and have hardly had a drink 😅.
I tasted the following
Special Junmai Unfiltered Nama Sake
Junmai Daiginjo Unfiltered Nama
Tokubetsu no Shizuku (special junmai)
Junmai Daiginjo Isehikari (not pictured)
All of them were good, but I bought the Junmai Daiginjo Isehikari, which was sweet and juicy. Why didn't I take a picture 🤔.
Good evening, bouken😄.
The reason why I didn't take pictures of Isehikari is probably because Harada's booth was too crowded and I couldn't take my time, and also because Mr. bouken was getting so-so drunk around here 😅.
Good evening, bouken 🌛You post reviews so fast 💦I think I was hanging around other places because it was crowded here... I only drank Isehikari and I only have pictures of Isehikari 🤣.
Good evening, Nemuchi-san 😃
I'm in a hurry because I've got a bunch of house drinking posts and a Takashimaya post coming up 😅I don't remember Nemuchi not being there on the way or going to Kawatsuru 🤣.
Hankyu Brewery Festival⑭
We went to Naruto Tai-san, a neighbor of Hosui.
We tasted
Daiginjo Jyudaijyo
Junmai Daiginjo Kotobuki
Ginjo Shiboritate Unfiltered Nama Sake
Junmai Ginjo Nigori Sake Silky Wave
Jyudaijime is a good, gorgeous sake.
I avoided unfiltered nama sake because it came in a can, but it was delicious.
I imagined the nigori sake to be spicier, but it was silky and delicate.
This is the 10th generation of the brewery! I also took a picture of the brewery's toji (master brewer).
Hankyu Brewer's Festival⑬
I've had Takakashiki before, but the others are new to me?
I tasted
Ginjo Namazake
Junmai Ginjo Mutemidan Kasumi
Yamahai Junmai Namaeshu
I was surprised at the cost performance of the Ginjo-Namazake!
Yamahai Namaisake is spicy and crisp 🤔....
I bought Mutame-tanzaka which was fruity and sweet.
Hankyu Brewer's Festival ⑫
Momokawa-san of the Hakutsuru Group has the image of a major manufacturer.
I was hoping to find some Hakutsuru Nishiki, but there was none...
I tasted the following
Junmai Daiginjyo Nama-Genshu from a bolt out of the blue
Junmai Ginjo Hiyoroshi
Momogawa Junmai-shu
Snow apple liqueur
Bolts from the blue seems surprisingly heavy and rough
Junmai-shu is like an evening drink that goes well with a meal
Yuki Ringo is like apple juice
Hi bouken 😊
He seemed quite pushy, but there were even stronger guests than that 😳It's interesting to see many things besides sake at a brewery festival 🤣.
Good evening, Ponchan 😃.
Is the guest a habitual strong pattern? 🤣
I think it's interesting that the brewer has a strong habit and the customers have a strong habit or are drunk 🤣.
Hankyu Brewery Festival (11)
Shoroku Shuzo rarely comes to events in the Kansai region.
They brought a lot of sake.
I have been following them on Instagram for quite some time, and it seemed that the people inside the brewery were also there, but they were not at this time 😥.
The sake we tasted was
Ancient Evening Palace Autumn
Six Roots? No.3 Wild Yeast
Junmai Ginjo 윮娟
Junmai Happo Akita Sake Komachi Nama
Junmai Ginjo Aizan Genshu
Junmai Daiginjo Emerald
Rokune? Jusui-fujikomi
Junmai Daiginjo Gin Karasu
Junmai Daiginjyo Hanasoui
I remember Gin Karasu-boshi was delicious and juicy.
I was so embarrassed that I almost read it as "Karasu-boshi" 😅There is a junior high school in Kobe called Eboshi...
They were sold out of Jusui Shikkomi, but I was allowed to taste it.
I bought a bottle of Junmai Happo Akita Sake Komachi Nama.
Hankyu Brewery Festival 10
Sasaki Sake Brewery, which was rebuilt after its warehouse was swept away by the earthquake.
We tasted
Junmai Daiginjo Namian
Junmai Daiginjo Omachi
Junmai Daiginjo Kura-no-Hana
All were delicious, but the Namian was tropical, fruity, sweet and delicious.
Hankyu Brewery Festival (9)
Until a few years ago, Ueda Sake Brewery was almost exclusively a direct seller.
Now, perhaps due to the Corona disaster, they are coming to department stores.
We tasted
Bodhi Hashiroshi Junmai
Junmai Unfiltered Nama Sake (no photo)
Junmai Daiginjo-genshu classic
The Bodai Hashiro is rich and sweet, with an astringency or complexity at the end. It seems to be suitable for warming up.
The unfiltered raw sake I drank at home in the past had a strong chemical taste and I didn't like it, but this one was delicious.
The Junmai Daiginjo Classic was similar to Sudo Honke's Kurogane, perhaps due to the traditional production method.
I think I heard that only Hankyu carries Junmai Daiginjo Classic.
I think Mr. Neemuchi got tangled up with a troublesome person here😅.
Hankyu Brewery Festival 8
Chiyonen Sake Brewery in Kumamoto.
Three of us came together, so the brewery asked us if we were doing sake circles. 🤣.
It's too much trouble to explain the details, so I just said something like that 😅. I answered 😅.
We tasted
Higo Specialty Red Sake
Junmai Daiginjo with Stars and Cats
Now available in Sake
Daiginjo Excel
Junmai Ginjo Kumamoto Shinriki
Junmai Daiginjo Shuubai
The red sake is so rich and sweet that you may think it is mirin (sweet sake). Akashu is so sweet that you would think it is mirin.
Hoshi to Neko is surprisingly dry.
Daiginjo Excel is fruity and my favorite!
My memory is getting fuzzier and fuzzier...
Hello bouken 😃
My tennis buddy stopped by the brewery festival on his way home from tennis and bought Sentoku and this sake 😊 Sake circles...well, that's how it is 🤣.
Hankyu Brewer's Festival (7)
Sentoku Sake Brewery 😃 which is the focus of everyone's attention
We tasted
Junmai Daiginjo Yume no Naka To
Junmai Ginjo Fukuro Shiboribori
Sentoku Junmai Ginjo
It was fruity and tasted as good as its reputation.
The Fukuro Shibori is a little spicy.
Junmai Ginjo has a gentle taste.
I bought the Yume No Naka Here.
I forgot to drink nigori sake.
Good morning, bouken: ☀️
I was alone before joining you all, so I was reserved and didn't taste the wine until my dream 😭 I should have been allowed to drink it.
I bought a Junmai Ginjo 😁.
Hi Maru 😃
I'm so sorry you had to pass on this 😳 What a waste 😭.
Some of the breweries let us taste almost 10,000 sake, so I think we can afford this one 😁.
Hankyu Brewery Festival (6)
This was the first appearance of Sudoh Honke.
He said he hoped this would be a good opportunity to have Hankyu handle their products.
He said that although it is not familiar in the Kansai region, Takimoto and Shimada Sake Shop in Osaka carry it. He said that since the Corona disaster, they have not been sold in Kansai for the most part.
The president's English pronunciation was very good, as he is mainly an exporter 🤣 He even dared to say "empty" again in English.
The oldest existing brewery.
The first brewery to produce sake.
The first brewery to produce sparkling sake.
The image of the first brewery to produce sparkling sake.
We tasted the following
Kasumiyama Junmai Daiginjo Unfiltered Namaizu
Kasumiyama Junmai Daiginjo Unfiltered Namaizu
Yukinomai Sparkling Unfiltered Nama-zake
Gonohonomoto Junmai Daiginjo Namaisho Namaisho
Gonohomyo Junmai Daiginjo Kurokin Unfiltered Nama-zake
Gonohonomoto Junmai Daiginjo Unfiltered Nama-zake
Gonohonomoto Junmai Daiginjyo Hyokyuu-aged Autumn
Yamatohana Junmai Daiginjo Unfiltered Nama-zake
The Kurogane tasted like chocolate and had a sense of maturity, but the brewer said it had not been aged.
The taste of the kamishimo is different from that of other kamishimo, but this seems to be the original kamishimo.
Sparkling tastes like pear.
Not enough words 🤣.
I spent the most time there and was able to hear many surprising stories. We met up with Aladdin here.
I was interested in the sparkling wine, but it was too expensive, so I bought a bottle of Yamatohana Junmai Daiginjo Unfiltered Namaizu, which I thought was the closest to my favorite.
Hello bouken😃Thank you very much for your time.
Thank you very much for your time 😊I joined bouken and Nemuchi as they were leaving after they had enjoyed talking and drinking at Sudoh Honke, both of them were very satisfied 😁.
bouken, here you go too😊.
We had a wonderful time talking and drinking a lot ✨we were also very interested in your detailed talk about everything from taste to management 😊I want to record it because I forget so easily these days 🤣.
Good evening, bouken 😁.
I don't see Go-no-Homare in Kumamoto.
I used to drink it when I was in Saitama...
I liked it a lot.
I wish such an event would come to Kumamoto too!
Hello Aladdin 😃
Thank you for the other day 🙇.
My main goal this time was to visit Sudoh Honke so I visited before I got drunk 🤗I don't remember much after this 😅.
Hi Pon 😃.
Once you have ceased to make the same thing, you cannot make the same thing. I felt the words "once it's gone, you can't make the same thing again" 😊.
I should record it like an interview 😅I'm sure I'll get a lot of attention 🤣.
Hello TOMO 😃
The brewery also said that they mainly export, so maybe they don't distribute much 🤔.
Let's let Tsuruya department store do their best in Kumamoto 😁.
Hankyu Brewery Festival (5)
Akita Seishu.
Kariho and Dewatsuru are two different breweries with two different toji (master brewers). The Kariho and Dewatsuru breweries seem to be separate companies. The sales company is called Akita Seishu. The quality of sake is also different because of the different water system.
I tasted the following
Kariho Junmai Ginjo Kingfisher Label
Kariho Junmai Mature Dry 80
Dewatsuru Autumn Agari
Kingfisher label is clear and light.
Dewatsuru is juicy sweet and my favorite. I might buy it if I see it somewhere.
My impression so far is that I prefer Dewazuru because it is sweeter and more delicious.
I ran into Mr. pyonpyon here.
I'm sorry I didn't greet him properly because I was with a friend and I was nervous 😓.
Good evening, bouken 😃.
Kariho is on my list of things to drink, but after reading this, I'm really interested in Dewazuru Autumn Ariki 😋.
I'm sure I'll meet someone in Kansai if I go to a sake event 🤗.
Hello Jay & Nobby😄
I'm not a big fan of hiyaoroshi, but the Dewazuru Aki-agari was delicious 😋.
I'm sure you'll meet someone when you go to the Takashimaya event as well 🤣.
Hankyu Brewery Festival ④
This is my personal favorite brewery, but I visit Hankyu several times a year and the only distributor in Kansai is Umemoto Sake Shop in Nishinakajima-Minamikata, so I have not been able to drink it.... There must be very few distributors nationwide.
I tasted the following
Junmai Ginjo Nama Shu 369
Junmai nigori sake Omboloyuki
Urushinoh
Daiginjo Shizukutori Chokai Honor
I bought and drank 369 in the past, so I omitted it.
Oboroyuki is sweet and I like it a lot.
Urushinoh is said to be Hitomebore, which is a rice produced outside of the standard range.
It has a good taste of rice and moderate sweetness. The acidity is impressive. Toward the end, there is a Sakura Masamune-like feeling of the sake, perhaps because it is made with No. 1 yeast.
The Daiginjo was just as good as usual.
The brewer seemed quiet and talked a lot.
He seemed quiet and talked a lot. He reacted to my watch, and when I asked him about it, he said he was curious about the watches other people were wearing. His watch also had a unique look, but he said he didn't like watches.
Hello bouken!
I've forgotten how hard it is to find this brand 😳I forgot to drink it 😅😅.
I forgot to drink it 😳 Interesting brewer, isn't it? I don't even like it but I'm curious 🤣.
Hi Ponchan 😃
I think women will like it because there are a lot of gentle sweet drinks overall😊Mamma Mia is especially recommended 😋I'm sure you'll be an interesting person to get to know 🤣.
Hankyu Brewery Festival (3)
I was interested in this festival in the past, but there were so many people that I passed it up 🙄.
I'm glad that I can go with Nemuchi-san 😊.
It seems that the brewery has come back to life after a long dormancy.
According to Nemuchi's information, it seems to be a group of "Sanin no Kura", but Sanin no Kura has two websites, the older one is listed but not the current site which is compatible with smartphones🤔.
I guess they must be affiliated with Miyako Nishiki because their individual official websites have similar layouts.
The old site seems to have stopped being updated around 2012, but I didn't realize they were grouped together that long ago 😳.
It also lists the breweries that are now out of business.
I wonder if they have been part of a brewery alliance for a long time, but recently, the parent company's intention to emphasize branding has come to the forefront.
I tasted
Noukouzake sign88
Kinjyu Dark Maple Junmai Daiginjyo Nama-no-Hara Sake
Unexplored Oku-Shimane Yaoei 2021 Nama-Nagara Sake
Unexplored Oku-Shimane Yaoei 2022 Nama-Nagara Sake
Nokkozake sign88 has a strong rice flavor and is very drinkable.
The Haikyo Oku-Shimane is made from different rice varieties in different years. I heard they made them differently.
Both are sweet and delicious, but 2022 was sweeter and more to my liking.
I bought the Junmai Daiginjo Nama Sake that gave me the best impression.
Hankyu Brewery Festival (2)
I knew the name of the brewery from its civil rehabilitation a few years ago, but I didn't know the brand name Kamo Goyo.
Naturally, I have never had it.
According to Nemuchi-san's information, Tsuyama Beer is famous.
There are many breweries that brew local beer, aren't there?
The beers we tasted were
Kamo Goyo Junmai Omachi
Kamo Goyo Junmai Ginjo
Kamo Goyo Junmai Ginjyo Nama Sake
Kamo Gobo Daiginjo Dojibon-i
Daiginjo To-bin-oi has a graceful, gorgeous, and sweet taste, and I realized that this class of sake is delicious.
The junmai ginjo nama sake was good, but it was expensive, so I wanted something more affordable, so I bought a junmai omachi.
Hankyu Umeda Hankyu Brewery Festival (1)
An hour after Nemuchi-san's arrival, we arrived at the venue.
Nemuchi-san said he would be at Itano, so I met up with him here.
Itano is a joint development between Motox, a wine importer, and Takai Sake Brewery. The brewer and a person from Motox were there.
The concept of Itano is a food sake.
The label has been changed to a design that suggests it was designed with exports in mind.
The label was also the idea of Motox.
The special junmai label was inspired by a balloon competition held in Ojiya City, where the brewery is located.
Nemuchi-san asked if they were bringing any Tatomo and Takanoi.
Nemuchi asked him if he was bringing Tatomo and Takanoi, to which he replied, "No, we are here as Motox this time....
We tasted the following
Iyano Junmai Ginjo
Iyano Junmai Daiginjo Snow Storage Genshu
I thought both were the type of sake that goes well with meals.
I hope they bring Tatomo next time 🤔.
Good evening, Masha 😃.
I'm not the one with the good eye, it's Nemucci 😁If it was just me, I probably wouldn't have gone through with it 😅.
There was one other motocs case 🍷.
I think it's rare to find unfiltered raw ginjo 🤔.
Slightly sweet and nutty. It has a strong sweetness and umami. It's a good combination of modern and classic without feeling like it's been alkaloosoaked. If the label is a little more modern, it will sell well.
After 10 days, it became bitter and hard to drink.
