The other day, after Ane-san's check-in for reaching the hermit number, there was a bit of a buzz among Kansai Sake-no-Wa members about Genmai's Aizan.
I was lucky enough to come across it and tried it for the first time after all this time.
For some reason, only Gensen Mai's Aizan (and its activated sake, Hwarin) has a slightly modern and stylish label.
The point of the "i" being a grain of rice, etc. is also intoxicating ☺️
The exterior is a very pale silver crystal.
The aroma is sweet and fruity, with a "genmai" ginjo aroma.
Ripe melon, young banana, ripe white peach.
The rice aroma is about the same as that of white dumplings.
The first touch of sweetness.
Cute acidity mixes with the sweetness and acidity.
The sweetness gives way to a swelling umami flavor and a loss of alcohol that is typical of nama-zake.
The lingering aftertaste, including a slight bitterness, lingers gradually.
This is Genmai, this is Genmai.
Fruity, rich, and cute.
Delicious. ☺️🍶
The day's lineup was full of sakes to suit our tastes and some great first encounters, making for a very satisfying end to a very satisfying day 😊.
Thanks for the treat 🍶.

Mr. Aladdin, good evening 🌃
I'm sorry I made a fuss in Aizan💦.
The label is different from other Genmai and it's very special 😊.

Good evening, Ane 😃.
It's intoxicating to have a sake friend with whom you can talk about sake 😄.
My comments have been a little bit stuck in a rut lately, so I'm training myself by drinking sake every day to express myself more freely and clearly without being confined to a box 😁.

Good evening, bouken😄.
It is the nature of drinkers to not stop when they want to drink.
No wonder and I enjoyed watching it too 😁.
The rest of the design is very straight forward like "Gensho Mai"! The other designs are more direct, which makes the Aizan stand out even more 🍶.

Good morning, Nemuchi 😃.
Kansai Aizan Riot 😁well, actually it was more like a love fest of sake drinkers 😆.
chuin-san, the lineup that day also included Kinjaku and Musical Instrument Masamune, which stung me more than I could drink 🥹.

Hi Aladdin 😃
I see you had a drink 😍.
I can feel how delicious it is 🤤.
I've had white, orange, black and other labels but I've never had Aizan so I'd like to try it 😍.

Hi Ao-chan 😃
It was my first time to see Genmai Aizan, so I was lucky to come across it: ☺️
It was just what I imagined Gensen Mai Aizan would be like, fruity, cute, sweet and sour, and delicious 😊.
