Good evening, N.E.! I would like to say too 👍 that Aizu horse sashimi and Aizu's local sake ‼️ go well together 😆 No, they definitely go well together, I envy you too much for the best pairing!
Good evening, Mr. Hirupeko ❗
Thank you for your comment 😆.
It's true that "Aizu x Aizu = good match" 🤣.
But I think that preconceived notions have a positive effect on the taste, and that's part of the fun⁉(^^)d
Good evening, Pon-chan 😆
It's a restaurant that offers a wide range of food and sake from Aizu, but since most of the sake is regular class, it was refreshing to see so much I hadn't tasted yet.
I held back on Christmas Eve, but the next day I couldn't resist and had a light drink 🤣.
We tried Daiginjo Homare a while ago with the white label, and this time we tried the black label.
It was described as having a banana-like aroma, but my wife and I did not detect any banana.
The price is low for a Daiginjo, so we did not have high expectations, but I guess it was worth the price.
This may be the wrong homare but wow it’s really good. Super fruity and floral on the nose. So smooth on the palate. Melon, stone fruits, apple, banana, pink flowers, sakura. I recommend pairing with with something that compliments the umami on the end like cheeses, red meats, or even some salty (not spicy) snacks. 8.9/10

Relatively speaking, I buy them on business trips and other outings and keep them in stock, but I've run out 😭.
I bought this at a local supermarket and it's fruity, tasty and delicious 😆😆😆.
I went to Kitakata's Homare sake brewery 😅.
I went to Bannai Shokudo and bought a bottle of Kitakata Terroir 😚.
Drinking bomb at Aizu Izakaya with acquaintances!
The aroma is clean and floral.
It has a smooth, rice-like aroma.
The aroma is reminiscent of fruits such as kiwi and muscat.
It has a light honey-like sweetness.
The slight astringency and acidity give it a nice aftertaste.
The cost performance is also good.

Had in the fun sake bar that my ryokan offers. It was great but not as good as my two other favorites. Interesting! If I hadn’t tried the other two, this would be a fave.
This is a cheap sake in a paper packet, but very tasty with a good balance of slight sweetness and gentle acidity.
As one would expect from a major sake manufacturer.
Since this sake is from Aizu, we had kozuyu, a local dish from Aizu, as a snack.
It was a very elegant and delicious dish.
