In August, I traveled to Fukushima City and Aizuwakamatsu City. In Fukushima City, I drank sake at "Anata ga Taisho" (see past CI). The next day, we moved to Aizu and visited Miyazumi Meijo. It is located about a 5-minute walk from Aizuwakamatsu Castle and has a very elegant appearance. The brewery's sake, which can only be purchased at the brewery, is a must-try. I had previously had a nigori (nigori is a type of rice wine) from Miyazumi and found it to have a strong sweetness and umami flavor, while the alcohol content was quite sharp and impactful. Pouring it into a glass, you can see carbon dioxide gas at a level that may or may not be there. The aroma is mild yet fruity. When drinking, the sweetness typical of Fukushima sake is felt first, followed by a firm rice flavor. However, Miyazumi does not end with mere sweetness and umami. A sharp alcohol feeling rushes through, and a gaseous, chili-like sensation lingers on the tip of the tongue, creating a sharp, clean feeling. This is it! Miyazumi is so delicious and its characteristics are so easy to understand. Fukushima sake is no date!

Good evening, FSB 😃. I like your trip to Fukushima - Aizu! When we went to Miyazumi Meizumi, tasting was prohibited due to the 🦠Corona disaster 🥲 so we would like to go back to taste it again 🤗.
