Aroma
A calm and soft aroma. The aroma is soft and calm, with a hint of sweetness like ripe fruit.
Taste
A soft mouthfeel with a robust, relaxed flavor that expands and spreads. The moderate and gentle sweetness and the light and mild spiciness give a three-dimensional impression to the flavor. The crisp acidity that follows afterwards is exquisite and makes it easy to drink as much as you want. The gentle mouthfeel and light sharpness are so gentle that they seem to sink in gradually. The contrasting flavors make it a perfect evening drink.
Since it is the last one, everything is delicious😊.
All were recommended by the restaurant!
A liquor store within the purchasing area started carrying this one a while ago and I wanted to try it.
This one has a rich and delicious flavor 😄.
The umami is thick, the grain-based acidity adds to the drinkability, and the bitterness finishes it all off nicely.
I went to bed after enjoying three cups because I had to run errands the next day and my wife drank it all up again 😭 Oh no, it's strong. I fell in love with it all over again 🤣❤️
Hello, freshly poked 🐦🐦.
Your wife's strength is still alive and well 😆👍 here is still one of a kind and outside drinking so I would like to taste it slowly 😊.
The chairman of my favorite liquor store recommended me to buy it (even though I almost felt like a pushover 😅): ❣️
The bottle was easily opened and cleared 🆑.
The supernatant was...
It was a little too strong and boozy for my taste 🤨.
Next, mixing and mingling
Intense dancing
Pleasant gassy feeling🫧🫧🫧🫧.
a good amount of sweetness😛😛.
Reminded me of Hirotogawa's nigori🍶🤔
Thank you, Mr. Chairman: ❣️
Good morning, Mr. Muro. ☀️
Fukushima junmai active nigori ❣️
And Hirodo nigori-ish ❣️❣️
So many words to describe this sake 😍
I'd like to try it, but I've never seen it before😅
Good morning Mr. Muro 🌞.
I knew you knew the chairman of Watanabe Sota Shoten 😁.
It seems that the existence of the back hump society is a real thing, chika🤭.
Hi Muro-san, ☀️
I drank this last year. ☺️ I bought it because of the name "Uma Uma" which sounded so good, but I remember it tasted like the active nigori! I remember it was so delicious 😆.
Hello, T.KISO manager!
It's not as famous as Hirotogawa nigori🍶😅but it is famous in the prefecture and I can recommend it: ❣️
My stupid taste buds feel it is like Hirotogawa🍶🤤.
I have a bottle of Hirotogawa nigori 🍶 hidden away for your enjoyment 🥰.
Hello, Matsuchiyo-san 🤫.
Don't tell anyone 🤫.
The president seems very friendly and treats everyone the same: ❣️
The president.... There is no back hump association 🤣.
Don't believe me chika 😩.
Summer Nigorinpic 99
In the Summer Nigorinpik, I'll continue today with the activated nigori 😀.
We had an Activated Nigori Sake from Ikki Sama 😇.
Continuing from the Shuwashuwa Activated Nigori that we have been opening recently, we opened this one 😀.
This sake didn't have as strong a carbonation as the activated nigori we've been drinking recently, but it had a great bubbling sensation 😅.
It was a delicious sake with a delicious jungin taste, a bit different from the firm nigori jungin mouthfeel!
The ginjo aroma, like freshly pressed apples, is intriguing.
Sweet, tasty, fresh, juicy, and just as delicious as you would expect!
I can see why it was chosen in some popularity contest!
The gentle and light aroma invites you to take a sip, and the smooth and fresh flavor spreads quickly.
It is well-balanced with a soft sweetness derived from koji that is not too assertive, a subtle fruity aroma, and a subtle acidity and bitterness. The crispness of the sake, which quickly fades away, is pleasant, and you will not get tired of drinking it over and over again.
The rice used is Fukushima Prefecture's original sake rice, Yumenokou. The delicate and clean taste has an elegant finish with a hint of glamour.
Aruga Brewery, which brews this sake, is a long-established brewery with a 250-year history in Shirakawa, Fukushima.
Yujiro Aruga, the master brewer, was originally engaged in life science research at university. He returned to his hometown after the earthquake, and has since applied his precise perspective and inquisitive mind as a researcher to the world of sake brewing.
Aruga Brewery continues to brew sake with an eye to the next 100 years, based on the brewery's philosophy of "a lifetime of chic drunkenness.
The brewery's aspirations and techniques are certainly reflected in the gentle yet core flavor of its sake.
What a rare thing for our family, it was laid up for 2 years!
We went to Aruga Sake Brewery and bought this 😊.
It was very tasty. Did it become mellow after being laid to rest? It was mildly delicious!
The reason why I opened a bottle that has been sitting for 2 years is because I am going to Fukushima again next month ^_^!
I am wondering whether to go the Aruga Sake Brewery route or the Kaito Otokoyama route!
I've been sick for some reason.
I got otitis media from a cold😅
Well, it seems that this is the first brand to land in Kyushu!
The liquor store told me, "This is the first customer to buy it in Kyushu, so it's the first one! He told me!
Everything is a first 😁.
Well, the taste is gentle sweetness and bursting with flavor!
This is so good ✨👍
You should buy and drink this sake!
GW Aizu souvenir "Kisuiki Hidari-uma"!
At Aizu Shurakukan.
Slightly peachy aroma,
It is very smooth and silky.
Sourness and sharp dryness,
A refreshing bitterness runs through it.
It has a crisp, dry taste,
Light, but with a good alcohol taste,
It is delicious.
It seems to go well with a variety of meals, and you can taste the full flavor.
Yaezakura cherry blossoms and Tsurugajo castle in the daytime were also nice.
