The 25th Hankyu Brewery Festival (11)
Aizu Homare booth.
The person who helped us was the brewer who helped us at Yodobashi.
◉Karahashi Junmai Ginjo Yamadanishiki
Personally, this Karahashi is my number one choice for Aizu Homare. It is a bit gassy even when fired, with a deep, full-bodied flavor and a sweet aroma of ripe fruit on the nose. I forgot to take a picture...
Aizu Homare Dry Junmai Sake Aizu Nama Ippon
Aizu Homare is a blend of rice with a milling ratio of 70% and an alcohol content of 14%, made in large tanks and priced at less than 1,000 yen for a pure rice sake. The soft water makes it soft on the palate, and it is clear with umami and acidity. It is not too spicy with a hint of sweetness. It can be served at room temperature or warmed. This is delicious.
◉Aizu Homare Junmai Daiginjo Shizukutori Yume no Kou
This is a high quality sake with a good balance of umami and acidity.
Daiginjo
A 39% polished Yamada-Nishiki. This is another beautiful, umami, well balanced sake.
The Karahashi Yamadanishiki was sold out when I arrived at the end of the day.
Good evening, bouken. 🌜️ I was able to drink the entire series of Kitakata Terroir at Yodobashi, so I didn't go through with it this time 😅The EPISODE II I drank before was unfiltered raw sake 😊.
