Comparing sake from Fukushima.
While eating Kitakata Ramen...delicious.
My first impression was Nekoma no Shizuku by Suehiro Shuzo in Aizuwakamatsu City, which I liked ♥ for its fresh fruit-like sweetness and the spiciness of its alcohol...
But after the second sip, perhaps due to my drunkenness, I enjoyed all of them, saying they were delicious and tasty.

(カワダ調べ)
Tenmei era (1781.4.2-1789.1.25)
Akebono (lake monster said to be one of the most wicked and powerful fish in Japan)
The label is more fancy than last year. It looks summery.
The brewery name "Akebono" is derived from a passage in "The Pillow Book", "Haru wa Akebono", and "Tenmei" was chosen as a synonym for the brand name.
Akebono has a history of three generations of female brewers, which is rare for a sake brewery.
Since 2011, the sixth generation, Koichi Suzuki (male brewer) has led the brewery, which includes many female staff members, to create a vibrant brewery.

コジコジ
Souvenir sake for my wife✨]
Purchased at Fukushima Antenna Shop. We brought Aizu Ryugasawa (+ Ika Carrots, a specialty)!
＜Aizu Ryugasawa Junmai Daiginjo Enju Genshu
Rice: Fukushima Prefecture Yumenokou (Polishing ratio 50%)
Water for brewing: Deep underground water from the foot of Bandai Mountain, one of the 100 best waters in Japan
Sake meter: +1 / Acidity: 1.45 / Alcohol: 16% (twice fired)
Tasting Notes
Aroma: Fruity and sweet (banana type?)
Mouthfeel: Mellow and balanced
Medium Taste: Sizzling flavor and moderate spiciness
Aftertaste: Slightly lingering bitterness
This is a perfect match for Japanese home-style dishes such as squid and carrots, chikuzen-ni (stewed chicken and vegetables), and beef in hot water with grated ponzu sauce.
It has no peculiarities, and my wife was pleased with its "deliciousness" 😊.

Nekoma no Shizuku｜Junmai Ginjo-Hiyakioroshi
This is the third sake from yesterday's "MIDETTE" Autumn Sake Comparison Set. The cat on the label is cute!

Nama-fume
Sake meter: -0.5｜Acidity: 1.8｜Alcohol: 15
Tasting notes
Aroma: Slightly matured aroma
Mouthfeel: Mild and sweet
Medium Taste: Umami and slightly spicy (plus a little bit of miscellaneous taste)

Delicious with soft fish cake. A little heavy on its own, but easy to drink as a mid-meal drink.
Autumn Sake: Favorite Score: 8.5/10

🍶General Comments
This time, the comparison set ((1) Yaemon, (2) Jinya, and (3) Nekoma no Shizuku) were,
(1) Between thick dry and light dry
(2) Light dry
(3) Rich and dry
The rice used for the sake is also "Yumen no Kou" (the rice of the sake brewer). The sake rice is also unified with "Yume-no-Kou" (the fragrance of dreams). I applaud the person who chose it.

This is the second glass from yesterday's "MIDETTE" autumn sake drinking set.
Jinya Junmai Aki-agari
A bottle made with Fukushima Prefecture's Yumen no Kou (Sake degree +3, Acidity 1.4, Alcohol 15%).
(Sake degree +3, Acidity 1.4, Alcohol 15%)
Tasting notes
The aroma is subdued, with a slight sense of maturity.
The mouthfeel is slightly tangy and dry.
The middle is more on the acidic side.
The aftertaste is dry and crisp.
It is easy to drink like water.
It was a perfect match with the "pickled garlic with bracken".
A good balance of drinkability and food wine power.
Be careful not to drink too much!
