Aizu Honey Sake
This is a luxury sake for me, 3300 yen for 520ml, but it is so delicious 🥰.
It's like sweet wine, but definitely easier to drink and tastier than wire ‼️
This local sake from Fukushima City and Iizaka Onsen was brewed using water from the Surikamigawa River, which flows through Iizaka Onsen, one of the three best hot springs in Oshu, and Fukunoka sake rice grown in the water, at Fukushima Prefecture's only sake brewery, Kinsho Sake Brewery. It had a mellow, fruity aroma and a refreshing taste.

The concept of this sake seems to be to be a little more luxurious than the sake that can be drunk casually. It was highly recommended by the store staff among all the Tenmei we had this time. The fruity aroma, soft mouthfeel, and clear, juicy flavor were very pleasant!
