During my recent trip to Fukushima and Niigata, I visited Gonoi Sake Brewery in Aizu Bangecho. A minute or two away from Gonoi Shouten, there are two breweries, Hiroki Shuzo and Akebono Shuzo, and Akebono Shuzo has a particularly rich lineup of products. I was overwhelmed by the depth of the store and the sheer number of refrigerators on our visit.
The "Oh" I purchased this time is from Akebono Shuzo, and is an original product from Gonoi Shouten. I was overwhelmed by the vast array of sake available at the store, and I was overwhelmed when I saw it for the first time. I chose the "Fukudare, Junmai Ginjo, Yamada Nishiki, Nakagumi" from among them. I chose "Fukudarire, Junmai-Ginjo, Yamada-Nishiki and Nakagumi" because I thought the specs were unmistakable.
I mailed it when I purchased it and it arrived today, so I drank it right away. It has a fruity yet refreshing aroma. It's unpasteurized, but the taste is calm and soft. The taste is impressive with a rich sweetness that reminds me of a pineapple. However, it is not sweet and has a good balance. Since it is an unprocessed sake, it has a high alcohol content, but you can drink it down easily. In a way, it's a dangerous drink.
I was curious to see how many people were drinking it at SakenoWa, and I was convinced that it would be popular. I bought another bottle and I'm looking forward to opening it.

Good evening, Umineko!
I'm jealous of your local purchase ✨
Mao purchased it online once.
It was delicious and I'd like to drink the other varieties ☺️.

Thank you Kanon! Gonoi Sake Shop was very good. The other one I bought, by the way, seems to have been reviewed by Kanon Kanon and I'm looking forward to opening it.

Good morning.
I see that you have been to Gonoi-san.
I've never been, so I'm jealous!
This is the kind of drink that shocked me when I drank it (it was a rough ride)!
I'm looking forward to reviewing another one of these!

Good evening, Drunkard. I came up with the idea of going to Gonoi's on my trip. It was a good shop with many customers and a lively atmosphere. The Nakagumi was delicious. I'd love to try the Arashiri too!

Good evening.
Sorry for my first comment, m(_ _)m
I've been to Gonoi's several times, and it's a nice shop with an abundance of Aizu liquor.
I haven't tried it yet, but there's also an original sake called Koji.

etorannzyu, nice to meet you! Thanks for your comment! Gonoi was a good shop. I see that Kotsugi is an original from Toyokuni Shuzo! I would like to buy it the next time I visit.
