On March 20th, here in Fushimi, we had our 4th annual sake festival. There were two venues for tasting: 1. Gokonomiya Shrine 2. Yume Hyakushu and 5 different kura participated in the event: Masuda Tokubee Shouten, Fujioka Shuzo, Kitagawa Honke, Matsumoto Shuzo, Saito Shuzo. For 1,000, you could taste about 17 different sakes at each venue. It turned out to be a great day. Here are some pictures from the event…
