The second bottle was from a local brewery.
This one was actually brewed for New Year's, but I couldn't wait for it to arrive.
I don't have to tell you how well it tastes, but I think it's a very well-balanced nigori sake!
But too energetic at the opening of the bottle 🤣.

It's been a long time since I've been to Aizu!
Souvenirs are available at Aizu Shurakukan.
Eikawa Sake Brewery's Aizu Ryugasawa is brewed with the sacred water Ryugasawa spring water, which is a representative spring of the Bandai Nishiyamaroku spring group, selected as one of the 100 best waters in Japan. The label is a dragon ball, which makes me feel nostalgic. 100% Aizu-produced Yume-no-Ko (dream aroma) is used.
I strongly feel their commitment to Aizu.
The aroma of rice is in the gorgeous ginjo aroma.
Mellow and fresh.
Thick and firm umami with elegant sweetness and bitterness.
Elegant sweetness and bitterness.
It has the strength of a pure sake, but is not heavy.
It is a very smooth drinking Junmai Daiginjo with good sharpness.
Yum!
The sake cup is Aizu Keizan-yaki.
I had bought a sake cup with a hole in it before, but it was too hard to use (of course), so I bought a sake cup without a hole... The shape fits the handle well and the sake tastes great in the mouth.

Tenmei Shinmai Shinshu Nakadori Zero-go Unfiltered Nama-shu R3BY
Another Aizu souvenir!
Tenmei's first new sake of the season. The new rice used is Mizuho-gold, an extremely early variety. The spirit is to start from zero.

The mellow and mellow flavor spreads with a hint of orizumi.

AizuMiyazumi Junmai-Shu (unpasteurized)
For the first time in two years, I went to Aizu, where my wife's parents live.
We enjoyed Tsurugajo Castle as a continuation of the children's school trip. I've been there many times, but I never get tired of it. I can spend half a day there without hesitation.
The end of the autumn leaves was also great because it was too sunny. It was unexpectedly empty.
Of course, one of the purposes of the trip was to buy some sake as a souvenir, and this was my first trip to the prefecture since I started buying sake.
We started with Miyaizumi, a sake I have a bit of a connection with.
It has a gorgeous, banana-like aroma.
It's clear and crisp, with a slight bitterness.
A little bitterness is refreshing.
The gentle acidity makes it easy to drink, juicy, and
It has a crisp aftertaste that disappears quickly.
It is delicious. I can drink as much as I want!
And the sake cup is Aizu Keizan-yaki, a traditional craft of Fukushima. Aizu Keizan-yaki is a traditional craft of Fukushima. It started in 1592 as a pottery for making roof tiles for Tsuruga Castle.
Aizu Keizan-yaki is light, thin, easy to use, comfortable in the hand, calm color, and reasonable price. And the hole in the bottom is a dare. You can't put it down until you finish drinking sake by holding the hole with your finger.
This was interesting, but not practical.

Accentuated by a tingling gaseous feeling like undiluted sake.
