Long time no see "Gunma Izumi". I was looking forward to this bottle to see the difference from the basic Yamahai as it is a precious raw Ginjo type 👐. When I opened the bottle and poured it, the aroma was slightly like grain, prunes, and rum raisins. The mouthfeel is surprisingly pale and slippery. However, when you taste it, you will find that it has a round and calm flavor. The flavor comes without being too assertive, and is sweet and austere, like a savory Western wine or jasmine tea. The acidity spreads slowly, and the umami has a plump, rice-like flavor. The taste is so delicious that you can't help but drink it without thinking it is gone ✨. It can be drunk on its own without being cloying or heavy. It has a clean and deep Gunma sake-like flavor 👍.

I had intended to take a day off from drinking, but I was defeated by the temptation of the new Akinatai fish and "Makari", a souvenir from Okayama. I will go back to Okayama with "Daisenji Shirakiku", also a souvenir from Okayama...! When the bottle is opened and poured, the aroma is elegant and calm, like melon or pear. The mouthfeel is round and moist. It has a rich and full flavor like grain, bread, and coconut. The soft and condensed sweet and sour astringent taste is a perfect combination with the sweet and crisp flavor of pickled makari! And the aftertaste is smooth and pleasant, so you won't get tired of drinking it ✨. It is a perfect match with the autumn swordfish! Maybe it's because it was fresh, but the guts have a round sweetness like sea urchin that is irresistible 😋.

The Maikaze version is the one that got me into the "Akagisan" series. I was able to secure it this year, so I have been saving it for a while 👍. When you open the bottle and pour it, it has a gentle and beautiful aroma of pears and white peaches. The mouthfeel is crisp and the slightly rounded flavor spreads. It is light and has a pleasantly pleasant flavor. The good flow from the supple and sharp sweet and sour astringency to the dry and dry sharpness is a clear and delicious taste that even makes you feel at ease ✨. It is a taste that reminds me of my first love. I'm still going after it...!

At last, the longed-for Yi Yu has arrived! The No.2 in the Oroku series after the ⭐5 type and the Jun Daigo. I will enjoy it to my heart's content 🔥. When opened and poured, it has a deep aroma of tropical fruits, plums, green apples, and cemedine. The palate is soft and smooth with oily and milky sensations. It has a unique flavor astringency and fullness like bitter chocolate and nutty. However, there is a crispness of gas and acidity, and a sweet apple and grapefruit sensation that comes gradually. It is complex and powerful, but also has a beautiful core! It is full of umami and has a slightly astringent aftertaste, but it has a good balance that does not linger. It is a standout in the series ✨. It's a cup that truly has a sense of mystery! I'd like to try the highest peak bag suspension someday...!

The last one is "Suehiro," an iron plate! Slightly banana and tropical fruit aroma. The taste is more fresh and clean than yesterday's Junmai, but the rich umami with acidity and astringency that is typical of Yamahai spreads gently in the depths, making it a great choice for Yamahai beginners ✨. The aftertaste is also crisp, and although it is Yamahai, it is not heavy, so you can enjoy it without getting tired of drinking it! This time, the Aizu trip and Aizu sake started and ended with "Suehiro". Aizu is a land of peaceful memories and ancestors, no matter what time of year you come. It was "Ah, I'm glad I came to Aizu.

The third and final group will close with the golden pair of "Isei Seishun" and "Suehiro"! Let's start with "Isei Seishun". Muscat and green apple aroma. The palate is clear and delicate. The palate is clear and delicate, with an elegant, tannic flavor, but with the fruitiness of a white wine. It was so brilliantly delicious that you found yourself swallowing it down in a single gulp ✨.

Another pair of "Toyokuni". Aroma of graininess, slightly similar to that of mature sake. The mouthfeel is supple, with a slightly caramelized, full-bodied flavor. As described, it has a power balance that goes well with the flavors of horse sashimi and horse motsu. The aftertaste is clean and pleasantly tonal ✨.

The second round went to the "Izumikawa" and "Toyokuni" pair! I didn't buy "Izumikawa" this time because I got it on my last trip to Aizu, but I still want to drink it when I find it..! Let's start with "Izumikawa"! The nose has a green fruitiness with a hint of pear and melon. The mouthfeel is soft and light. It has a rounded, crisp sweetness and a light astringent taste with a neat flavor. It was a refined taste that is perfect during meals & can be enjoyed on a daily basis ✨. Accompanied by carp!

And another pair of "Hanaharu". The aroma is light and refreshing, like a gentle breeze. It is light on the palate, but has a more dry and astringent rice-like flavor than the "Yuri". The aroma is simple, clean, and easy to drink.

As a continuation of yesterday's event, after walking around the Tsurugajo area, I decided to finish the trip! We started off with a pure pair of "Hanaharu" and "Yuri" while enjoying squid carrots and kipper ✨. Let's start with the "Yuri". Pear and apple aroma. The palate is clear, soft and smooth like Kyoto sake, with a gentle taste. The taste is not too bright, but it has a light, rice-like flavor, and it has a crisp, clean taste that you will never get tired of drinking!

The last of the tasting was a Fukushima-only ginjo type. The aroma is somewhere between junmai and jungin, with a hint of pear and banana. It has a mineral taste and goes smoothly on the palate, but it is easy to drink with a well-balanced taste of rice flavor like Junmai and a hint of aroma like Jungin! After the tasting and shopping, it was pouring down. We can only be grateful for the thoughtfulness of the store clerk who told us to take shelter from the rain 🙏.

Next is the Junmai type. The aroma is soft and banana-like. The mouthfeel is round and gently spreading with a gentle flavor. The taste was THE Miyazumi quality with a taste of pear, apple yogurt and banana.

Today I went for a walk in the Tsurugajo area! The weather was beautiful and we had a clear view of Mt. Bandai from the castle tower, so we were able to fully enjoy the green summer scenery of Wakamatsu ✨. After visiting Tsurugajo Castle and Curry Yakisoba, we went to Miyazumi Meisen Brewery! After visiting Tsurugajo castle and curry yakisoba, we went to Miyazumi Meizumi brewery! Let's start with Jungin! Refreshing apple aroma. It has an elegant mouthfeel and a bright flavor with moderate acidity. The sweetness is less than junmai, but the sweetness, spiciness, acidity, and astringency are not overly assertive, and the taste is beautifully integrated ✨.

And to close out the day, "Aizu Musume". When the bottle was opened, the aroma was slightly gentle, like bananas or freshly cooked rice. The mouthfeel is moist and gentle. The sweet umami of the rice is relaxed, and the classic dry, acidic, and astringent taste leads to a crisp finish. It has the ability to softly integrate these flavors, making it a delicious wine that is easy to drink! After this, I went to bed and continued on with my day 💤.

After wandering around Wakamatsu city at night and returning to the hotel, the after-party was a pair of "Tenmei" and "Aizu Musume" (🍶). We started with "Tenmei". When the bottle is opened, it has a gorgeous aroma reminiscent of melon and muscat. The palate is fresh and sharp with no blurring from start to finish. It has a sweet, sour, and astringent taste like green fruits and citrus. It has a brightness that pulls up the palate clearly while also producing a light, rice-like flavor. It is a taste that can be enjoyed on its own!

Another cup is for "tefu" in summer! Light and fresh, with a green melon-like aroma. The mouthfeel is fresh and typical of nama-zake, but the taste is light and refreshing and enjoyable without being heavy. Mineral, glossy, and beautiful, it was perfect for both eating and the heat ✨. I had a set of Yama-Shio Ramen and Sauce Katsu-Don (pork cutlet served on top of rice) for lunch. The mild flavor coming out of the light soup stock was great for replenishing salt during the hot weather!

It has been a long time since I visited Aizu in summer! This time, we took the Noiwa Railway route for the first time in a long time, and on the first day, we toured Mt. And after consuming under the blazing sun and taking a breather in a hot spring, beer and sours are very effective! In that vein, we also selected some Fukushima sake. We started with Suehiro🍶. The aroma is subdued, but has lactic acidity and a graininess to it. The palate has a round, moist sweetness and a deep sourness that gradually stimulates the taste buds. However, it was also clear and not too persistent, with just the right amount of umakuchi deliciousness ✨. I'm sure you'll love it!

Genzai" as a preparation for the Wakamatsu trip! This time it's the Tokujo version. I was so excited before I even opened it because the Tokujun was so good ✨. When opened and poured, the aroma is gorgeous and fresh, with hints of melon, white peach, and cider. The mouthfeel has a fine carbonation that gives it a shwashy feeling. Contrast between pure sweetness and refreshing acidity. The taste is elegant, like lychee, muscatel, melon, or wasanbon. However, the beauty is that it doesn't linger, but rather finishes with a bit of austerity, while also bringing out the flavor of the rice. The richness of the flavor in a smart way makes you go "mmmm" 👍. It has been a long time since I last visited Aizu in summer. I hope to enjoy a relaxing trip to the place where I have a connection with. But my heart is in a festive mood!

Wataya" impressed me at Kawaguchi Natto before. On my last trip to Tochigi, I came across a summer sake type this time, so I got it! When I opened the bottle and poured it out, it was crisp and unobtrusive, like a gentle breeze. It is light on the palate and has a refreshing lightness, just like the summer sky on the label. It has a refreshing taste derived from the spiciness and acidity, with a firm core of junmai's gentle and rounded flavor. Despite the differences, it has something in common with my favorite "Akagisan," and is a delicious and easy-to-drink wine! This refreshing taste is sure to shine during a meal. Summer seasonal foods come to mind 🤤. A bottle suitable for the continuous heat wave! I would like to try a variety of seasonal sakes, which are not often seen at Wataya👍.

The last was Sawaya Matsumoto! Sharp enough to enjoy even after drinking to some extent. The citrusy freshness, gasiness, and acidity make it perfect for the hot summer months ✨. The light rice flavor in the aftertaste is also unbearable during the meal! I will enjoy my work from tomorrow with the satisfaction of having enjoyed the summery atmosphere in two days 👍.
