On October 9, I attended the Fukushima Sake Festival held in front of JR Shimbashi Station and purchased this Kunikon Yamahai Junmai Ginjo-shu as a souvenir.
It has a clean rice aroma with a hint of sweetness. The gentle sweetness and umami of rice spread pleasantly. Then, the strength that is typical of Kunigon follows, and it is sharp and crisp. I like Kunigon after all.
At the Fukushima Sake Festival, I had both the bronze and gold labels, and was reminded of their deliciousness.
Thank you.
It's my pleasure!
I've been drinking sake for 30 years, and now that I've found this app, I'm trying to recover my memory from scratch again!
Long-awaited trip to Fukushima 🚗.
After 15 years? I finally made it to Fukushima after 15 years?
If I could go to Fukushima,
I would have researched sake shops in advance.
The last time I visited, I was not that much into sake.
I was looking forward to it so much!
I was looking forward to it.
I bought 4 bottles this time.
I will drink them in order.
This one is not so common in my hometown Nagoya.
I don't see it very often in my hometown Nagoya,
I wanted to try it someday.
I wanted to try it someday, so I picked it up the moment I found it.
I picked it up the moment I found it.
It's labeled as "autumnal" but it's relatively refreshing,
It is relatively light.
The umami taste comes out later.
It is easy to drink, but since it is 16 degrees Celsius
If you drink it at a fast pace
you will be in trouble later on.
It was delicious.
Price: ¥2,200

Drinking at Yakitori Fukuzumi in Aizuwakamatsu City, where I was traveling.
The master, his son, the waitstaff, and the friendly locals made my visit very enjoyable.
The yakitori was delicious, and the beef tongue, which is grilled in a very particular way, was also very tasty.
For my first drink, I tried the first sake I noticed in the fridge.
It was very tasty with a sake-like flavor, but I was told that you can drink it at any izakaya in Fukushima.
I was told that it is available at any izakaya in Fukushima, which is a very high level.

I like the name Kokoku-gan, it's kind of a powerful name. A name that almost makes you think it stands for state power.
Please give me power too ‼️
Please give me the power to make out with pretty girls as much as I want: ‼️
The scent is melon-based. The scent is quite mild and pleasing!
The mouthfeel is mild and smooth, with a slightly sugary, mild, rounded sweetness.
It has a slightly astringent finish and is very refreshing.
This is very tasty 🤤.
If you raise the temperature just a little more than cold, the sweetness and umami are well defined and too good 🤤.
It is not a bad idea, but it also went well with Misokin Meshi 🤣.
By the way, after drinking Kokugon, I was invited to lunch by cute junior girls in my office. ❤️
So this is the power of state power... 🤪⁉️
Of course I gave them all the money. ❤️

Money will fly if you drink the Kokoku Kwon, everyone beware🤣.
Good evening, Kuri the woodsman 🌆 Well, you are totally treating me like a purse 🤣 Four of us went out for drinks last week and I paid out more than half😇.
Long time no see Kokugon, a low-alcohol summer sake Swallow Label. The aroma is modest and refreshing. The sweetness is moderate and the light acidity spreads. Although it is low in alcohol, it still has the firmness that is typical of Kokugon. In fact, it has such a core that one wonders if it is really low-alcohol. It has a core. I really like Kokugen.
Kunigon Junmai Ginjyo Fukunoka Yamahai-brewed
Rating 4.4-4.5
Rice : Fukunoka, contract grown in Fukushima prefecture, Polishing ratio : 60%, Sake meter : -2, Acidity : 1.5, Amino acidity : 1.3, Alcohol content : 15%.
Junmai Ginjo-shu made with 100% Fukunoka and brewed in Yamahai. It is a refreshing Yamahai. Light, with an elegant sweetness, but converging with a slight lactic acidity, it has a slightly complex texture and is good as a mid-meal sake.
Fukunoka has the characteristic of not producing a lot of acid and amino acids, which makes this sake soft and full without any stinginess.
The yeast used is "F7-01" to take advantage of the sake's elegant flavor without using aromatic yeast. It makes for a slightly sweet sake.
The sake brewer was formerly known as "Hosoi Brewery Honpo" and produced sake brands such as "Nanko" and "Kame-no-i." It is said that one day a monk who was preaching on the street stayed at the Hosoi family and gave the name "Kokugon" to the sake.
The sweetness, acidity, and spiciness are perfectly balanced, so you will never get tired of drinking it, and you will find yourself down to 1/3 of a cup.
This is the 615th one-cup, one-pack festival.
