In general, as sake that women like and sake for women, sweet, easy-to-drink, and fashionable bottles are often mentioned. Sparkling sake, which has been gaining popularity recently, is also popular among women. It is said that the slightly sweet nigori liquor has a good reputation. Certainly, sparkling and turbidity are very popular, and they also have a good bite to fruit wine. However, at first, I drank only these, but as I drank and compared them, some people said that I became addicted to the so-called "male favorite liquor". A woman in her thirties said, "I like dry sake now." According to the exhibitors at Goshu Festa, the brands brought to women were unexpectedly unsuccessful, and the brands that men thought were better were more popular. "I was surprised," the person in charge laughs.

It's a mediocre expression, but after all, each person has his or her own taste. However, it can be said that "easy-to-drink" sake has lowered the threshold of sake, and booming events have increased opportunities to come into contact with sake. The soil for "enjoying" sake may be getting ready.

Both of the two events we visited this time are scheduled to be held in the fall. Autumn feasts "Hiyagoshi" and "Akiagari" seem to be the highlights. Many other events are planned. An all-you-can-drink shop where you can compare sake is also popular. Above all, it's best to enjoy drinking alcohol. Be careful not to drink too much "softening water" (in short, chaser) with sake. With self-discipline.
