superbebeIwakuni City Tourism Exchange Center "Honke Matsugane" (4th cup)
I'm not very familiar with Gobashi's sake.
I've only had "ride?" 🛵 pink sparkling nigori.
This is the first time I've had a Kanji label.
I actually didn't know which one I was drinking since I wasn't offered a bottle 🤣.
The menu says Junmai Ginjo but the picture is Junmai Daiginjo🙃.
And it's a pain to ask😅.
She said it was a slightly sweet and tasty sake😄
Gobashi-san is located right next to Ganki-san!
Across the bridge on the other side
Very close to the U.S. military base
What I find interesting is that
Gobashi-san also has an art museum 🏛😮.
You can see it across the Kintai Bridge near the souvenir shop

Golden Chun Chun🐤 Junmai Daiginjo from Horie Sake Brewery
All other sakes are 100 yen per glass.
This one is only 300 yen!
Sweet aroma like muscat with a refreshing taste!
Kinjaku Hisho" is indeed a fantastic sake
I think it's almost impossible to get.
It's really a loss if you don't drink it 😆.
I'm a driver who can't drink 😭
Too bad I couldn't sample it.
But luckily I was able to drink some Yakult 1000 I found at Sunmart 😆😆.
Horie bar is pretty far away.
I remember it took us almost an hour to drive from Kintai Bridge to deep in the mountains! マコスケsuperbebe, did you enjoy your trip to Iwakuni?
Yamaguchi Prefecture is a relatively easy place to drive... (lol)
Oh, Matsugane-san was able to taste "Tobisho", wasn't he?
I didn't know that even though I recommended it to you. マコスケKinjaku and Hisho cost about 13,000 yen per bottle.
300 yen for a tasting size bottle is cheap.... (lol).
However, Josen is now 2000 yen!
When I bought it some years ago, it was about 1800 yen. ハリーGood evening, superbebe!
I went to Hiroshima in the spring and did the Saijo sake brewery tour,
I didn't check out Iwakuni, I could have had Golden Chun Chun and many other cheap drinks if I went to Matsugane... I want to revisit it someday ‼️ superbebeGood evening, Mr. Makoske!
I was able to sample such a rare sake for only 300 yen.
Really amazing ✨✨.
These war-torn times.
It's inevitable that prices will go up 😥. superbebeI also bought my lunch at Sunmart.
It was cheap and delicious!
Then we went to the diner right next door to discuss our trip over iced coffee 😋. superbebeGood evening, Harry.
Takehara Machinami Preservation District near Saijo is also a nice place!
There's also a collection of sake breweries here.
About 30 minutes drive from Saijo.
It's worth a visit🤗. ハリーGood morning, superbebe! I didn't know about Takehara townscape. bebe-san's research is wonderful, I would like to visit there someday too. ❣️ superbebeGood evening, Harry.

Are you going to Iwakuni city 😲‼️ I envy you because golden sparrows are hard to find 😆‼️ ポンちゃんGood evening, superbebe😊.
Great view of so many golden tundra in a row 😍.
It was worth the trip to Iwakuni 🐦✨. マコスケsuperbebe, I am glad to hear that you are having a safe trip to Iwakuni!
This time, I couldn't make it to "Aki-agari" in time.
I heard it will be available in October.
I wonder if you were able to buy "Kami-Sen" at the supermarket. マコスケHow was the comparison of 5 breweries? ごぉにぃごぉGood evening, bebe. I thought I hadn't uploaded anything for a while...
I see what you mean!
Kinjaku, I envy you.
Maybe you should live in Japan now. With your girlfriend. superbebeGood evening, Mr. Manachy🎈.
It sure is hard to see, isn't it?
I saw a store in Hiroshima that sells them.
Sake shop Yamada, Noboricho store.
It's a 30,000 yen luxury Kinjaku 😮.
I can't afford it🤣. superbebeGood evening, Ponchan 🎈.
It was fun to take a little trip by car 🚗.
We went to Kintai Bridge and Itsukushima Shrine that day😊. superbebeGood evening, Mr. Makoske 🎈.
I went to the supermarket too❗
Thanks for the info 🙇♂️
I bought a bottle of josen and mailed it to Taiwan 😁.
Thanks a lot 🎈. superbebeI just checked the latest YU-PACK status.
I'm at Osaka Kansai Airport right now 😂. superbebeI left the alcohol tasting to her.
I drank Yakult 1000 that I just bought at the supermarket 😋.
We also tasted lotus root, sweetfish, Iwakuni sushi and other delicious specialties 😁. superbebeGood evening, Goonyi Go🎈.
Yes, I arrived in Okayama last Sunday😃.
Today is the last night of my trip and I am now in Shimonoseki!
Tomorrow I'm taking the afternoon flight back. superbebeIf I lived in Japan, I might be tongue-tied every day 🤔
Not good 🤣🤣🤣 ごぉにぃごぉShe'll stop me and I'll be fine🙆 マコスケOh, you bought "Josen"? Well, let me tell you how to drink it in the Japanese way.
Put it in a kettle and heat it over an open flame to about 60-70 degrees Celsius.
Put it in a teacup and toast with everyone.
It's delicious! superbebeGood evening, Mr. Makoske!
Is hot sake recommended?
I'll try it next time!
By the way, are josen and GOLD the same?
I bought the one labeled GOLD at the supermarket! マコスケI think Kamisen and Gold are the same.
The labels are the same. (laugh).
I don't care to drink Tobisho or Daiginjo hot.
But if it's Josen, I'm sure it's the same. superbebeHello, Mr. Makoske 🎈.
When I was in Jakjido, I also saw a special honjozo named "Seiryu Nishikigawa".
I regret now that I didn't buy it because the amount of sake I could bring back to Taiwan was limited 😥😥. マコスケSuperbebe, please come to Yamaguchi again next April.
(lol) By that time, "Shiboritate" will be available.
There is also a black mine.
superbebeGood evening, Mr. Makoske 🍦.
Thank you 😊
The information is always helpful 🙇♂️
I didn't know that Kinjaku's freshly squeezed sake is shipped in April!
I thought it was November or December 😆. superbebeI thought it was November or December 😆.
I'm seriously planning on going 😤.
It should be in by the last week of April, right? マコスケsuperbebe, freshly squeezed sake will be available in the middle of March as usual.
I think it would be difficult to get it in the last week of April.
After all, you can't get Kinjaku........ (Holy shit!)
If you really want to come to Japan, I will help you. superbebeGood evening, Mr. Makoske 🌙
Really? Yay!
It would be helpful if you could secure it for me😃.
I'd love to go to Yamaguchi when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom to see the cherry blossoms!
I'll see if I can get a cheap airline ticket. superbebeAnd check the estimated date of the cherry blossoms 😆.
I'll report back to you: 🙇♂️
Thank you. マコスケsuperbebe, the cherry blossoms at Kintai Bridge are very beautiful.
I wonder if you went to "Mitsukan-ya" this time.
If you come to Japan in April, we will make arrangements for you.
I can't make a decision. superbebeGood evening, Mr. Makoske 🍦.
I didn't have enough time.
I didn't go to "Mitsukan-ya" 😥.
We went to Kinjaku that day and then to Kintai Bridge.
superbebeThen we took the ferry 🚢 to visit Itsukushima Shrine⛩ and enjoyed oysters and conger eel rice😋. にゃんすけA sweet sake reminiscent of wasanbon, with a hint of sweetness.
The oldest brewery in Yamaguchi Prefecture, they mix the family's traditional techniques with the latest technology to produce the quintessential drop of sake.
Delicious. RecommendedContentsSectionView.title
