I returned home for the holidays to participate in cleaning out the oversized trash at my parents' house. After sweating a bit, I found Izumikawa in the fridge and immediately opened a bottle of this unexpected trophy 🎉. It has a slightly soft sweetness, a gradual flavor, and a bitterness that comes in the latter half of the bottle. It is smooth and easy to drink! It is the big brother of Tobiroki, and I enjoyed Izumikawa for the first time in a long time 😘.

Izumikawa's Funakuchi. It is a slightly orizumi (orizumi is a slightly cloudy, raw sake), so the first thing to drink is the top clear liquid. The aroma is still young and melon-like, with a soft sweetness and a tangy, spicy bitterness. The balance of sweetness, spiciness, and bitterness gradually improves. When mixed with ori, it becomes slightly cloudy. The spiciness subsides and the sweetness increases, creating a mellow mouthfeel that keeps you coming back for more. It is a very fresh and delicious sake that can only be drunk at this time of the year.

Tonight, we will be drinking new sake, but this is the first one to greet you 💁. Izumikawa Jungin Nanaguchi Hon Nama Nama ✨✨✨✨ Izumikawa is a sake that is distributed within the prefecture by the famous sake brewery HIROKI, but this Jungin Funakuchi Honnen is exceptionally popular and our expectations are skyrocketing. ⤴️ The bottle was opened very quietly, with a little lees at the bottom of the bottle. The aroma is similar to that of Tobiroki, but it is not flashy, with fresh melon and pear fruits. The taste is a little viscous and smooth on the tongue, with moderate acidity and the sweetness of the rice spreading through a dry aftertaste. When the starch is mixed in, the softness and flavor increase, and although it has a moderate alcohol content, it is a very popular wine.

Izumikawa is a souvenir from a recent trip to Aizu. It has a refreshing yet subtle muscat-like aroma. It is not too sweet, not too spicy, and has an elegant taste. It is refreshing and goes down easy. I've been sipping on it every day and am about to finish it. I wonder if I can buy some next time I go there. But there are other attractive sake in Aizu...

I'm a sucker for a dry one these days. but this is still delicious. When it is cooled down, it becomes like a summer sake. When the temperature rises, the sweetness of the rice comes👍 Izumikawa is only available for online purchase. I want to drink it all the time. ❗️

Izumikawa Daiginjo. The last in the series of farewell gifts is the first Izumikawa. It is another brand of Hiroki Shuzo, which brews the well-known Tobiroki. A former colleague of mine from Fukushima bought this for me when he went back to his home country. We are very grateful! We compared it with Tobiroki from the previous day. The ginjo aroma is reminiscent of pear and muscat, and the mouthfeel is very smooth. The mild sweetness, concentrated umami, beautiful acidity, and clear, uncluttered sake quality add to the crisp, clear taste. The balance of this sake is reminiscent of Tobiroki, but the umami is a little milder, giving the impression of being a versatile match.

@cup_cup_place Izumikawa, a local brand of HIROKI This is my first time to drink Izumikawa. The first aroma is slightly sweet. It has a light and mild sweetness on the palate, but it is more refreshing than Tobiroki. It is delicious 🍶. The third picture is the Hiroki Sake Brewery's main store, which we visited the next day. It was located in the center of Aizu Sakashita. It was a surprisingly small sake brewery, although it was deep.
