Junmai Ginjo🍶Summer only sake 😆.
Sweet and thick 😳. It's like coarse 😅. When you take your time to sip it, it softens a bit and has a dry melon aftertaste. Softened by Aizu's specialty, squid and carrots.
The final dish is a chilled shoyu sauce, which is unique to summer. But it is rather refreshing. The soup is delicious. But I wonder if it's a change 🤔.

Alcoholic on the palate 😳. It's like a sacred sake. But when you drink it, it's spicy but mild. Spicy citrus 🍊, acetate. The attack is softened by Aizu's specialty, ika carrots🦑. ☺️ Chashu pork also goes well. It tastes better while eating.

Grefflish acidity and bitterness. Rather strong alcohol taste. When paired with Aizu Tenpou Miso's Morokyu🥒, the corners are removed and it mellows out. ☺️ It's a bittersweet taste. It is spicy when combined with squid carrots🦑🥕🤔Thanks for the handmade Kitakata ramen noodles with soy sauce flavor🍜😋.

Manta, thank you for your comment😊Sekirei seems to be a new brand of ice-cooled storage management, which changed my impression of Aizu Homare ✨I recommend it along with ramen...

Gyu gyu😆. Sweetness and umami. Aroma of watermelon 🍉. At first it was strong, but as you drink it, it's refreshing ✨. Sugar water like enchantment. Mild sweetness when paired with sweet squid carrots 😋.

Aroma is not too gorgeous and refreshing ✨Clear and sharp. Good amount of bitterness. Easy to match with meals. Fairly dry. A little bit of a seme smell when the temperature rises. Kitakata ramen soy sauce flavor to finish with dumplings and pickled bamboo shoots.

Junmai Ginjo Unfiltered Nama 🍶Nakadori✨Tatsu Label No.2🐉Gohyakumangoku from Aizu🌾.
Dry with a strong umami. Soft and fruity on the palate. It is a combination of melon 🍈 and banana 🍌. When combined with morokyu miso, the harshness is softened and mellowed. The morokyu miso is superb 😆.
The miso ramen noodles I had to finish off the meal was quite mild. Milky. Just right with a dash of chili pepper as recommended 👍.

Refreshing✨ and the sweet taste melts into your body🤤. Gentle and superior sugar water. Pair it with Fukushima local dish 🥕🦑 of squid carrots🥕🦑 and it's crisp and spicy 😆. Definitely a pear type 🍐This restaurant is a Kitakata Ramen store, but they have a great selection of Fukushima local sake and the best local cuisine 🏆.

Clean and sharp 😆. When you drink it, you can feel the sizzling and peachy 🍑Kitakata soy sauce ramen🍜 is delicious 😋It is a wonderful restaurant that makes you feel like you have traveled to Aizu and Kitakata 🎉.
Menu description: "Pear and G-fruit type. Transparent, light body with fresh sweetness. It is soft on the throat and has a bitter aftertaste that finishes very pleasantly. It is able to express the aroma of happiness without the unpleasant taste of fire-aged sake, and the unrestrainedness of nama-zake is well summarized."

Junmai Ginjo Nama Sake🍶Karakuchi +10✨
Kirei, sharp✨, eye-opening😳, clear taste. Pair it with spicy miso (spicy miso with horse sashimi 🐴) to increase the spiciness and sharpness 😋. When combined with squid carrots, the sweetness is increased and the squid flavor is improved 😆.
Menu commentary: "Clear and beautiful. The aroma is of the Li and apple family, and the mouthfeel is fresh and crisp. The body is medium light with moderate sweetness and a dignified spiciness with bitterness. It has a good balance of youthful freshness and dignified spiciness."

Normal sake
The umami and acidity cling to the palate as you sip. It is a perfect match with Kitakata Ramen (soy sauce). More umami and sweetness. It was a very satisfying lunchtime Chinese drink 🎉.

First time to visit a Kitakata Ramen restaurant in Jujo that I've been curious about for a while 😆The Kitakata Ramen is of course very delicious, but the lineup of Fukushima sake is amazing 😳I had a hard time deciding which one to try, so I went for my first Yamatoya Zennai. Refreshing✨, fruity, with a hint of lychee for sure. It was a dangerous drink that I could gobble up 😆 Very nice family owned store ✨.
