The Michisakari Sake brewery in Kasahara, Tajimi, holds a very popular sake tasting event every year. We were blessed with great weather - this is a pleasant time of the year here. As you can see, people were in a very good mood as well! I tried out my ten shots of sake for the very reasonable price of 500 yen (About 4.7 dollars). The price doubles for the best brands. The 2018 event was held on March 25. Directions here.

A cozy sake shopThe always happy Tamaki-san sells the best Tono brands of sake in his cozy store in Tajimi. Sometimes he throws a jazz music party here. This day he exhibited Mino ware flasks and cups in the shop. Don't forget to look up at the ceiling. Pleasant!
