Ordered 🍶300ml for dinner on the trip.
Inagawa Sake Brewing Exhibition in Fukushima Prefecture, I heard they have a brewery by Lake Inawashiro.
It was my first time drinking it 🍶.
The rice is 100% Gohyakumangoku.
Rice polishing ratio is 40
Alcohol level is 16 degrees Celsius.
Fire-aged undiluted sake
The sake is light and colorful.
It will be produced in June 2024.
The aroma when the bottle is opened is slightly sweet, with a hint of melon or banana in the distance.
In the mouth, the full sweetness and umami of the rice spreads quickly on the tongue, but it is light. After that, the bitterness spreads, and it goes down the throat with a sharp taste.
It is drier than the sake I usually drink.
It is heavier than other sake, but as it is served with a meal, the bitterness becomes less noticeable and the sake becomes more enjoyable.
It is more enjoyable when paired with a meal, not as a sake to be faced with.
On the second day, we went to the samurai residence → Hideyo Noguchi Memorial Museum
and then went to Nakanosawa Onsen
I am relaxing at Nakanosawa Onsen. I had my first taste of tempura manju (a kind of sweet bean paste) 😄.
I had my first tempura manju
It was so delicious! I had a great time 😋.
With the food at the inn. 😍
The sweetness and aroma are modest, but the daiginjo
It has a nice crisp texture on the tongue with a hint of daiginjo character.
and a nice crisp texture on the tongue. 😍This time, my wife and I had a shogobottle.
This time, my wife and I drank a 4-glass bottle together, and although we felt it was not enough in terms of quantity
I felt it was not enough in quantity, but the intoxication was light.
I was light, so I soaked in the open-air bath and looked at the beautiful starlit sky,
I soaked in the open-air bath. 😂.
The fun trip is coming to an end.
But, it is a trip until you get home, so I will take care and go back home.
I'm going back home with care. I'm going back 💨.
I was able to recharge my batteries this time as well,
I will start night shift next week, but 😫 I will do my best.
I will do my best. I'll do my best 😊.
Thanks for your hard work, Hanapin-san 😊.
It was a wonderful recharge trip to relax ☺️ with the food (gorgeous ✨) and drinks 🍶 at the inn and soak in the hot spring ♨️ 🤗Good luck with your work 😊.
Good morning, Jay & Nobby!
Good morning, Jay & Nobby. 😊The return trip was quite
I was exhausted because of the crowds 😊. 😢.
I'll try my best again tomorrow 😄.
Good morning, Tsubu! 😊
It's been a while. 😂.
The older I get, the more I want to go to a hot spring.
I'm not sure if it's a good idea or not, but I'm sure it's a good idea. I'm not sure how long I've been away 😓.
I wish I could go to a snowy hot spring 😫.
Good evening, Hanapin 🦉.
You enjoyed Fukushima to the fullest 🎶The food is gorgeous 😻Is the tempura manju a bun with anko (sweet bean paste) in it made into tempura? I'm curious because I love tempura anmaki in Aichi 😁.
Good morning, Pon. 😊
Tempura manju, that's exactly what it is. 😂
Crispy outside, chewy inside, my favorite!
I love it. 😍Working from today!
I'll do my best 😫.

Brewed slowly at low temperature to bring out the flavor of the rice.
It was brewed slowly at a low temperature to bring out the flavor of the rice. It is said to have been brewed slowly at a low temperature to bring out the flavor of the rice.
The taste is heavy and rich in the mouth.
It was defeated by white-meat fish sashimi.
It is better to pair it with fried fish or other strong dishes that will not be defeated by this sake.
Manachie recommended sake
I went to a brewery in Aizu and bought some.
The price is higher than I imagined. As expected, it comes in a box.
It is delicious. It is heavy and delicious. It is not so sweet, but you can enjoy it slowly by itself.
If I hadn't heard about it, I would have passed on it. Thank you, Sakenois.
A bottle recommended by the owner of a sake brewery
The owner of the brewery recommended this bottle to me.
Slightly fizzy
It tastes fresh because it is only a draft sake
It tastes fresh 😊.
Gulped it down with the wife!
It was gone in no time 🤣.
It is a delicious sake 🍶.
Festival of the Seven Herbs of Health (7th of January)
The delicious taste of rice. Dry. Mellow and numbing. Taste is strong and drinkable. Delicious.
When I went to a sake event in Aizu the other day, I had a nice chat with the owner, who was very low key (some would say drunken).
The sake was delicious, so the next day we went to the sake brewery. We had a chat with the owner, who was so low that he was not even talking about this, and talked about yesterday. He gave me a little money when I bought the sake. I am really glad I went there.
The brewery is located in a nice shopping district at the foot of Mt. The brand name comes from the "common" sake named after the first generation, which is very important. Oh no.
Whoa, Mr. Nice to meet you! Was she the grand landlady when I visited? She was still very talkative, and a new product using sake rice called Yume-no-Kou with her is waiting in the wings. It's nice to visit a brewery.
Dear WOM
I see that you visited Inagawa Sake Brewery. I am glad to hear that you enjoyed your visit.
I am not confident in my tasting skills, but I think the merit of visiting a brewery is that you can add to the taste with experience and information.
I haven't drunk it yet. To enter the brewery place for now. The landlady explained carefully and we bought a bottle of her favorite red and a new Inagawa. We will enjoy them when we get back home.
Sake from Aizu since it was a business trip to Aizu. I knew to start with the unfiltered raw sake.
It has a fresh mouthfeel. A little later, the tangy stimulation and rich aroma spread, but it is somehow light. It is the type of sake that makes you drunk before you know it.
Second bottle of camp liquor
On a recent touring trip
I stopped by a sake brewery and bought a bottle of Nanaeiro. ‼️
There were many kinds of sake at the brewery,
I bought this one because I heard it was the best standard one.
I mean, all of them are over 2,000 yen for a four-pack...a bit pricey 😭...
But I've always wanted to drink this brand, so I bought it even though it's expensive. ❤️
I'm so happy to finally be able to drink it....
The aroma is like Fuji apple 🍎.
Ah, the aroma confirms that this sake is good 🤣‼️
Attack is juicy juicey 🥺.
It's juicy like apple juice 🍎☺️
And yet, it's not so sweet, so it's juicy due to its umami. ‼️
The juiciness is balanced out by the acidity 👌
It's so good 😋‼️
I wish it would be more famous. ☺️
I had to drink the melon after 2 of us 🤣‼️
My friend made fun of me like I bought another strange drink,
But when I drank it, I realized it's really good. I'm sure it's good 👌.
I want to repeat this one, even though I can't afford it at all🤣.
Good morning, Manachy: ☀️
I was surprised to see the exact same thing 🤪.
I'm so jealous that you went to a sake brewery 😊.
I think you can find them in many liquor stores in Fukushima Prefecture 🍶.
Hi kab 😃I'm sure you can find it in Fukushima prefecture ☺️ I'm sure there's probably no place in Ibaraki that sells it 🤣.
It's a nice sake, I really want to go buy a different one... 😃.
Oh, I love touring! I love touring!
Good morning, Manachie-san!
I think the brewery that makes mansaku no hana has released a "bottle holder" that allows you to hang a bottle of mansaku over your head.
I hope Mr. Suehi will be able to wear it around town!
It is a brand rarely seen outside of Fukushima Prefecture, but many major sake stores carry it (I learned after buying it that the brewery won the top prize in the Junmai-shu category at the 2022 Tohoku Sake Competition), so I bought it thinking that I could not go wrong.
Cold sake, close to room temperature. The aroma is mild, but slightly apple-like.
The spiciness comes first, followed by an apple-like sweetness, then a syrupy rice flavor, and then the spiciness comes again and finishes.
It is still not out of the ordinary, and is in the direction of my taste. It is rich and mellow like Aizu sake, but it has a strong tendency to be dry.
