One-step-self limited edition sake released since 2024
Autumn = hiyaoroshi! I headed to a local bar and found a never-before-seen Ippouki sake in stock, which I bought with my brain dead. I'll buy it again next time....
It doesn't have the tingling sensation of the unfiltered raw Ibuki, but it's still delicious. (I think I prefer it to the usual Ippo Mi!).
I think it has a sweeter taste than the unfiltered Nama Ibuki. It has a strong astringent aftertaste that goes well with food.
It has a slight melon aroma.
It's been a while since I bought a bottle of sake, but it's still the best sake I've ever tasted!
Today's sake is a junmai sake from Toyokuni Shuzo in Fukushima, Japan: ❗️
The aroma is a faintly sweet junmai aroma❗️As you take a sip, you'll notice a mild texture, followed by a sharp astringency on the tip of the tongue❗️And then the sweet aroma leaves your nose❗️❗️Good, sake⭕️
Fukushima has many sake breweries and I still have a lot of sake that I haven't tasted yet 🥲.
To be honest, there are a lot of sake that I don't like 😅
It is slightly dry on the palate, but the taste of rice spreads softly and the sweetness of rice soon arrives.
Personally, I prefer this sake with meat rather than fish.
This is my first time drinking Ibuki. It is a relatively new brand that was launched in 2011 by the ninth-generation head brewer of a historic sake brewery founded in Tempo.
In my experience, I have the impression that Fukushima sake has a strong umami flavor, and this Ibuki is just as strong as that impression. The sake is full-bodied with a clear alcohol taste, which is also due to the fact that it is a pure sake.
It is not the type of sake that can be drunk easily on its own.
Good day!
Last weekend, my friend and her family came all the way from Wakayama to Kanazawa to visit us 🥰.
My friend was pregnant and had a baby, so she had not been able to drink alcohol for a long time, so we prepared lots of wine and sake and had a lot of fun for 2 days 😎😎♥️
I drank this sake!
I heard it is based on the concept of traditional + modern 🥰.
It has a little bit of sourness to it!
It was delicious!
It was even tastier because I drank it with a friend~!
Hi, Jun 🍀
Looks like a fun party with your friends coming to visit you 🎵.
Sake is delicious! But the taste and the quality of the sake is enhanced depending on who you drink it with 😋.
It was a good time for drinking 🤗.
Good evening, ma-ki-, ☺️
Yes, that's right! Of course sake is delicious, but the background of the sake, such as who you drink it with and in what situation, also doubles the taste 🥰♥️
The first sake of the fall season is "Ippoki Junmai Ginjo" from Toyokuni Shuzo in Furudono, one of my favorite breweries in Japan!
This is the sake that got me hooked on sake, so I was overjoyed to be able to get it!
The moment I opened the bottle, it smelled like pineapple! When you drink it, it also has a grape-like flavor!
The sweetness, umami, and then the bitterness and sourness!
The side dishes were grilled fish with salt and simmered radish!
We are so happy!
Thank you Toyokuni Shuzo!
I got a good one. I congratulated my business partner on his new appointment to the board of directors. I received a bottle in return. It had been a long time since I had had a bottle of Ippodo! I was happy because it was my favorite sake! I took a drink. Needless to say, it was 🫡.
It's been a while since I visited an antenna store
Left is Ippo
Both sweetness and bitterness are strong.
Sourness is there but it's hidden
It goes well with kamaboko
Junmai Genshu⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Polishing ratio 60%, ALC 16%.
The aroma is slightly fruity, and in the mouth, it is a dry sake with a good balance of acidity and bitterness that slightly stimulates the tongue, and a slightly lactic aftertaste that lingers on the palate.

Today I'm here with a friend for a two-day and one-night tour of sake breweries in Fukushima. We visited Suehiro Shuzo, Tsurunoe Shuzo, Miyazumi Meijo, Hiroki Shuzo, Akebono Goshi, and Toyokuni Shuzo Goshi before moving on to Koriyama.
Tonight, we will drink 12 kinds of sake at Izakaya Shinoya in front of Koriyama Station, mainly sake that we did not buy today!
First up is "Ippouki Junmai Ginjo".
It has a fruity, slightly banana aroma. The aroma is deep and spreads in the mouth.
