Chinese pickles with garlic, too much umma!
It has been a while since I bought something at the Fukushima-kan (antenna store) in Nihonbashi.
This time, I chose "Ura-Toyokuni" which seems to have a particular taste, instead of "Sukkiri".
The label is upside down. It is a standard label.
As expected, it is a strong sake with a robust flavor and depth. It is not refreshing, but just as expected!
The first sip was in August and I drank most of it, but Fukushima is still interesting.
The alcohol content is 17% and the rice polishing ratio is 55%.
Another pair of "Toyokuni".
Aroma of graininess, slightly similar to that of mature sake.
The mouthfeel is supple, with a slightly caramelized, full-bodied flavor. As described, it has a power balance that goes well with the flavors of horse sashimi and horse motsu. The aftertaste is clean and pleasantly tonal ✨.

It's been a long time since I've had a Toyokuni.
The previous Natsukasumi we drank had an elaborate device on the back of the label with a full sky of stars 🌌 that you could see from the back when you finished the bottle, but this fireworks display is also very vivid 🎆.
Summer sake is perfect for summer and it really sinks into your body.
Now that I've had my Fukushima sake, I'm done with my rehab ✌.
So what will I drink next 🤔?
Hi N.E. 😃
I know the label is vivid 🥹 but again, this picture is in focus and has a lot of atmosphere with the glass!
I'm only talking about the photos 😆.
Thanks, Jay & Nobby 😆.
Photography is not my hobby, but I am very happy if you are able to capture the atmosphere 😆⤴️
When I drink alone it's like I drink by the atmosphere ✨🤗🤗✨.
Toyokuni Shuzo

This brewery is located in Aizu Sakashita-machi, Fukushima Prefecture.
The rice is 55% polished "Yumenokou" grown in Fukushima Prefecture.
Fruity aroma like melon,
The gentle flavor of rice, a hint of bitterness and astringency are well balanced and refreshing.
The taste is well-balanced with a hint of bitterness and astringency, and has a clean, dry aftertaste.
and a dry aftertaste.

Local Toyokuni given to me by my parents on my birthday. The aroma is extremely subdued. It has a slightly peculiar taste. Sweetness, acidity, bitterness, and a bran-like taste that seems to have been deliberately added to the beautiful Junmai Daiginjo-like quality of the sake. I think there are two sides to this one. I am glad that I can enjoy these peculiarities.
