I was drawn to it by the spring-like packaging.
The palate is sweet and fresh, with a slight bitterness later on.

It is a slightly dry but refreshing and easy-drinking sake.
The name of the brewery is "Hatsumomiji" and the brand name is "Harada"?

A faint apple-like taste, maybe a little sour.
The label is fantastic and nice.
Commemorates my trip to Aomori.

Hiroki Shuzo, the brewer of Tobiroki, distributes Izumikawa only in Fukushima Prefecture.
Tobiroki is expensive because it is basically a raw sake with a premium price, but "Izumikawa" is a reasonably priced sake that has been fire-aged.
I thought it was relatively dry right after opening the bottle, but after about a week, it became milder.
It is a very high cost-per-serving sake.
Place of purchase: Gonoi Sake Shop (Fukushima Prefecture)
Price: 2,860 yen (tax included)

I didn't think it was very distinctive.
Some say I am simply insensitive...
Costa is high.
