Kunisake Fair 2025 (1)
We went to the National Sake Fair held in Osaka to coincide with the Expo.
I started with a 1 gou can.
It is Kinryo's Seto no Ao.
It is a junmai ginjo made from Oceto, which is well-known in Kagawa.
The can package has a cool, Seto Inland Sea feeling with the 🐟🐙🪼 drawn all the way around the can 😍.
It is served cold.
Crystal color.
The top aroma is sweet and fresh with blue melon, muscat and bay leaf.
From the gentle mouthfeel, the main taste is a little different from the impression of the top aroma, with a fresh Jungin aroma and a smooth, firm layer of rice flavor. The second half of the bottle finishes with a mild citrusy acidity and a lingering umami taste mixed with astringency and spiciness.
From the package, I imagined this sake to be a little lighter and more refreshing, so I was surprised to see the mild rice flavor from the aroma when I first opened the bottle.
It is also delicious as it slowly rises in temperature from cold sake.
At the end of June,
I went to Shohikona Shrine to purify my body over the summer.
The shrine is tucked away in a building in Doshomachi, Osaka's pharmaceutical district.
Good things and not-so-good things,
We went through the thatched ring to reset our lives once and for all.
Let's move on to the next half year 😊.
So it will continue 🤗

Hi Hirupeko, Good evening ⭐ Just recently my husband found some Jinling somewhere and drank it! It was a pleasant surprise 😆.
Doshomachi is a very exciting place for Tanizaki lovers ✨I look forward to reading more 🎶.

Hi Mamio. I'm so glad we are drinking Kinryo at the same time 😆 Doshomachi also has a connection with Tanizaki Junichiro. Now I'll have to go see the former Konishi family residence, imagining what it was like back then 😊.
