Personal score 75
This sake is from the West Harima region of Hyogo Prefecture - Yamazaki-cho, Shiso City.

Pungent and sweet with a spiciness that works well from the start.
When you include the athetes, the sweetness expands a little and comes to catch you.
It is quite pleasant sweetness.
After that, the spiciness flutters loosely. The good taste makes you want to drink the next one.
How about if you heat it up?
The spiciness comes with a bang! At room temperature, the sweetness comes to catch it, but when warmed up, the spiciness comes to catch it.
The spiciness also goes from fluttering loosely to crisp and firmly disappears.
The flavor changes between room temperature and warmed. It is quite interesting.

Red rice, which is believed to have been dedicated to the gods, is used. Compared to today's rice, it contains more vitamins and protein, and has the unique wine-like flavor of red rice.
I drank it on a trip.
I drank it with a nice meal after taking a hot spring bath, so I can't really give you a proper impression of it, but it was delicious without being peculiar! It goes well with meals!
I'd like to drink it on a regular basis.
