Good evening! 😀
We have completed two of the biggest AGMs of the month. 👍
There was a lot going on, but I'm glad it went well.
Well, after the board meeting before the AGM, I had some business in Morioka the next day, so I went to "Yakitori Tomifuku" for the first time in a while.
It was empty because of the early hour, but I dared to sit at the counter in the back.
I ordered a glass of Yuzushu with soda and a glass of Washinoo (Japanese sake) for my second glass.
What? I asked him, "Izumikin-san serves this kind of sake? I asked, and was told that it was a special sake only available at Sakamoto Sake Shop.
A search revealed that it was designed by Ayumi Yanagisawa, an artist from Iwate Prefecture.
It has a very Ghibli feel to it.
Take a sip.
Oh, it's refreshingly dry.
But the attack is soft.
The umami is gradually absorbed.
It goes well with yakitori sauce. It is a good match for yakitori sauce 😁.
But Izumikin Brewery loves collaborations!
I thought it would be nice if they appealed more, but I finished it in no time.
It was delicious! 🙋
Good evening! (^^)/
Today will be the hottest day of the week! The weather forecast said it would be the hottest day of the week, but it was surprisingly dry and hot.
We have a rush of general meetings starting this week, and if we don't drink in moderation, we are going to lose our physical condition (smiles).
Well, it was the general meeting and reception of an organization I belong to.
It was also the time for the election of new board members, and although I had been a board member for two terms, I had to step down due to various reasons.
Well, it seems that there are various "adult circumstances," so I just kept my mouth shut, let it go, and went into the get-together. (^_^;)
The sake we brought this time was Yaezakura Daiginjo, which won the Iwate Prefecture Governor's Award at the 2024 New Sake Competition.
Yamada-Nishiki is polished to 40% and flavored with brewing alcohol.
Take a sip.
Ah, a beautiful sweetness.
There is not much acidity.
Anyway, the mild and beautiful sweetness spreads throughout the mouth.
It is very easy to drink and everyone raves about how delicious it is.
Well, since the direction of Izumikin Sake Brewery is toward this direction, will there be more of this kind of sweet and tasty lineup?
It was delicious! (^^)/
This is an unfiltered, unpasteurized, unpasteurized, unpasteurized sake made in Funakuchi, produced by Fukuroiya Sake Brewery. We were treated to a limited edition off-the-beaten-path product. It was fresh, fine-grained, and delicious with a powerful flavor. It was like it had just been born.
Good evening! (^○^)
It was mild and sunny today on the coast of Iwate Prefecture.
Since yesterday, there has been a wildfire in a place called Kariya, Miyako City.
Yesterday was windy and dry, so it looks quite difficult.
In our neighborhood, there was also a wildfire from a wildfire, and it is really bad if you carelessly litter cigarettes or something like that. (^_^;)
Well, last weekend was the same event as last year (a welcome and farewell party for new and old branch managers of a regional bank).
And what I brought to the venue was the same as last year, Ryuusen Yaezakura Junmai Ginjyo Nakakumi-Unfiltered Nama-shu (lol).
Izumikin Sake Brewery recently received a prefectural governor's commendation, but it has not yet been released, so we served this sake to everyone.
Like last year, it is a refreshing sweet-tart sake with a hint of sourness.
Slightly sour.
Slight sweetness.
Slightly sweet. Slightly umami.
The taste was beautifully balanced and stable.
As if that wasn't enough, I went to the Fukuraiya Sake Shop in Morioka City to check out the special sake that was produced in collaboration with Izumikin Shuzo and Fukuraiya Sake Shop, as shown in the fourth photo! (@_@)
(@_@) It seems to be a special sake made by bag suspension, and the brewery does not have any stock of it.
We will have to wait until next year. (^_^;)
Junmai Nama Sake 🍶 Shiboritate✨
Various flavors. Stronger freshly squeezed. Alcohol is also strong. It is assertive throughout. The sliced kipper makes it mild 👍. Fried oyster makes it more charming. It looks like it was made up and became beautiful😅.

No sweetness. No acidity. It is a light sake. Umami is at the center of the flavor and lingers in the aftertaste.

I just had Yaezakura the other day, so it was easy to compare: ☺️
It's a bit peculiar after all!
But I'm lucky🍀🍀 to be able to drink this rare limited edition sake.
