It is fresh and moderately alcoholic. It is not spiky, so it is easy to drink. It is also a good food wine 🆗.

Soft sweetness, moderate acidity. Good accent of bitterness in the back. Powerful enough to be served with meat dishes.

I drank a bottle last Sunday😅. I may have had a drink outside somewhere 🤔 but this is my first time to drink at home 🤔‼️ so this time it's "Abukuma" from the "Maybe I've never had a drink before series 😆" 🤗. It's kind of simple, but isn't the shiny silver label cool? I took a picture of the bottom right with the sake cups because of all the silver colors 😄. I'm going to make love to you again this day 😙 I'm going to make love to you now! The aroma is refreshingly fruity 😌. The first sip is soooooo good 😍! It's juicy with just the right amount of sweetness 😋and the best balance of umami and acidity ‼️. It's a great balance and is a great Fukushima sake 🍶This was a bonanza 👍 And here's a J&N family newsletter 🛜. My daughter's visa (🇺🇸) finally came through and she will officially live in Japan (🇯🇵). He will be coming to Japan in the summer, but he will be here once in May before that! Nobby is hoping to speak English more and understand each other better. I've been studying 📚 on a regular basis, but this month I'm finally going to start attending an English conversation class 🤗. I've been studying for a while now, but I'm finally going to start attending an English conversation class 📚 this month 🤗.

After leaving Hasegawa Sake Shop, he brought us to Fukushima prefecture's antenna shop❗ Fukushima sake drinking comparison 🎵I'm so happy 😊. Aizu Nakasyo is so good 😋😋 and Lomang has a nice sweetness 👍and "Abukuma" which I have never had ❗It has a clean, sharp mouthfeel and you can sip and sip it all the time ✨I like that they all have a Fukushima sake feel to them 😉. After leaving the restaurant, we wandered around the city center 👙and realized how great the capital city Tokyo is 😲After work, Yuka-Chin and I met up at a standing izakaya 🍶As mentioned in Yuka-Chin's post, there is a restaurant that is related to Yuka-Chin and me 😲I was so surprised that such a restaurant exists in the middle of Kanda, Tokyo 💦. The three of us had a great time drinking delicious Echigo sake 😆.

Walking around Tokyo with Mr. Menshuoh. We saw Tokyo Station from the outside for the first time in a while. We took a break at Fukushima-kan. We compared three kinds of drinks. We met up with Yuka-Chan and went to the third meeting at a restaurant we stumbled upon while strolling around Tokyo. I am a sucker for drinking too much even though the next party was the main event.

I didn't expect to find a place like this in the middle of Kanda, Tokyo 😅I had a lot of drinks I didn't know about in Echigo. I didn't know there was such a restaurant in the middle of Kanda, Tokyo 😲I drank a lot of sake from the 0th party 😅I found a lot of sake I didn't know about in Echigo-Tsumari... ✌️

Hello, Mr. Menshuoh, I was surprised to see you at this restaurant. I could feel your love for the East of Hokkaido when you were so upset at the sight of herring. Yuka-Chin recommends local sake, which is the reason I drank too much. It was Yuka-Chin's fault.

When it's hot, it's very refreshing. ❣️ Oh, it was delicious ❤️ Even Dora-chan said Dora said, "Yes, it's a delicious sake. ❣️ I'm sure she'll buy it for me from now on😄 Thank you, Mr. M 💕🙇‍♀️🙇‍♂️
