Mmmm, yum! I like it very much!
It's sweet and fruity, but with just the right amount of sweetness, acidity, and alcohol, it's not too heavy!
I made a pizza with arugula and prosciutto ham by hand.
Of course, the sake from Aizu in Fukushima is delicious, but the sake from Nakadori is also quite good! That's Fukushima!
We enjoyed the sake from this year's New Sake Appreciation Gold Award-winning brewery!
Hi mikomichio 😃
We had this Abukuma a little while ago! We had it a while ago 😋 and you are right, it has the best balance of sweet, tasty & acidic 😋 ‼️ we like it a lot too 🤗.
Sometimes I post in real time.
On my way home from a business trip, I had a modest solo drink on the Shinkansen 🍶.
The first half was from Abukuma Junmai Ginjo Retro Label.
I bought it at the Hasegawa Sake Shop in Tokyo Station😄.
(Incidentally, the nearby Hasegawa Sake Shop Palace Hotel branch also sold Sanchi Yamadanishiki Ni-No-Nozo 😳I didn't buy it though 😌)
The exterior is a pale yellow-green crystal.
Gentle but refreshing ginjo aroma.
Aromas of young green melon and banana with isoamyl acetate.
Refreshing chervil.
Rice aroma about the size of a white egg dumpling.
Smooth and mellow texture on the palate.
The blue melon ginjo aroma is pleasantly intoxicating as it starts with a modest sweetness and quickly spreads to a refreshing acidity.
As the stimulation of the refreshing acidity passes through to the nose, the sweetness rounds out to a firm umami.
The finish is a lingering, slightly bitter aftertaste accompanied by a warmth that is gradually fading away.
It's been a long time since I've had Abukuma, but I'm still drunk. ☺️
My favorite souvenir from my business trip to Tokyo (for myself) is Taiyaki from Taiyaki Wakaba in Yotsuya.
I managed to get it by cutting down on time to buy snacks 😁.
The Abukuma has a robust flavor that is as intoxicating as the Taiyaki 😊.
Good evening, Aladdin 😀
Thanks for your business trip 😀
However, you are enjoying your izakaya shinkansen well 😀.
Please be careful not to make a mistake in closing time 😀
Good evening, Yasbay 😃.
It sure is a big problem if you don't keep the closing time 😁.
It was a modest party of 2 x 1 gong bottles according to the dosage, so we finished early and after a pleasantly drunken stupor, we were able to arrive at our destination station safely 🚅.
Hi Aladdin 😃.
I like the 🏮 Izakaya Shinkansen 🚅 for a single drink 😋! Just looking at the picture I thought it was a miniature for a moment 😅Abukuma with Taiyaki as a side dish! What a good idea🤗
Good evening, Jay & Nobby 😃.
It's an impatient one-day business trip where I can't even stay overnight, so at least I got to enjoy the ride home 🏮🚅🍶☺️
I saw a lot of retro-labeled sake bottles for sale and they are so cute that I want to collect them 😄.
Sweet x 🍶 is justice 😁.
