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.

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.
GW to Fukushima 🚗💨
One of the purposes is to buy Sake!
We went to a sake shop that impressed us with its great selection last year.
The Izumikawa I was planning to buy was sold out😭.
I bought Kiku-Senkawa instead and it was the right choice 👍!
It's lighter than Izumikawa and goes well with food!
I should have bought more 😆.
Discreet aroma of green apple and acidity🍏🍏.
The watery mouthfeel combines with elegant rice flavor and gentle acidity that quickly recedes with bitterness 😋✨✨.
This is one you can drink for the rest of your life without getting tired of drinking it! ☺️
It's really delicious 😋🤤Thanks 😊
I love a bottle of sake because it's delicious.
This time, I bought a Daiginjo
Despite its gorgeous aroma, it has a sharp aftertaste.
I can drink it easily.
The bitterness spreads a little as the day goes by.
The mild sweetness spreads softly, so the balance of the flavor remains perfect and it tastes great all the time.
The impression of good balance is the same as Tobiroki.
Very delicious 😋.
