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.

The last is in a separate frame, "Izumigawa"! Gorgeous, elegant and pleasant aroma of melon and apple. The palate is clean and smooth. The balance of sweet, spicy, acidic, and astringent is not too assertive, and the elegant, calm, and gorgeous aroma of ginjo complements this. Less umami than the one we had yesterday, but this sense of stability without excesses, deficiencies, or sharpness is habitually delicious ✨. On the last day of our round trip to Aizu, we visited "Sazae-do" and the graves of our ancestors, as well as the sake brewing exhibition at the Prefectural Expo. On the way back, we happened to go from the land of drunkenness to the land of dreams (Shinkansen)! I have many childhood memories of both Disney and Aizu, so I was able to enjoy myself as if I were a child again 😌.

Hi Jay & Nobby! We've just enjoyed the four stages of Aizu: food, sake, hot springs, and history ✨. As Aizu natives, we look forward to reading your posts about your travels in Aizu!

Mr. STST Good evening! I too saw the exhibit at the museum last week. I like to drink Izumigawa with duck soup at a soba noodle shop along the museum. My favorite routine is to go to the museum café after dinner until I get to dawdle while looking at the view.

Good evening, Mr. Shouting Butterfly! There is nothing but the best duck soup split in Izumigawa...! I couldn't go there due to time constraints, but I was also curious about the cafe on the first floor, so next time I'd like to spend some time relaxing among the locals 😌.

I went on a trip to Aizu to dissipate after 6 consecutive working days! Yesterday, I took the time to enjoy Inawashiro (Kamegajo Castle and Dozu Shrine) and Tsurugajo Castle. After all, I feel at home in familiar places👍. And at dinner at the inn, I saw the word "Izumigawa"! I don't know what the specs are, but it's the one I've been longing for. The aroma is gorgeous and floral, with hints of apple and pear. It has a beautiful minerality on the palate, and the sweet, spicy, and bitter flavors are well balanced without being too assertive. However, the umami is stronger than that of "Tobiroki" and it is juicy and delicious ✨. The umami lineage gives the impression of being like "Miyazumi"! It was a supreme combination with the carp wash 😌.

The 105th anniversary party of my college baseball club We were served sake brought in by one of our seniors from Aizu! Izumikawa by Hiroki Shuzo, the brewer of Tobiroki Since the last time I drank it in Aizu with my senpai! It has a nice aroma and a calm, fruity taste! I heard that the distribution of this sake is limited to Aizu. Talking with old members for the first time in a long time Delicious sake made our tongues smooth! knowledge of how to make the best use of it! Rice polishing ratio: Yamadanishiki / Gohyakumangoku Sake degree: 55 degrees Heat treatment: 2 times heat treatment Alcohol content: 15

At a liquor store in Koriyama before summer. Slightly caramelized aroma on the nose, dry with a delicious flavor. Tasted on the rocks, it is even easier to drink.
