First impression is water itself, with a slight taste of rice. When it gets on the tongue, it is a cup with a habit of leaving a lactic acid bacteria smell unique to the sake's sake yeast. The persistence of the habit is long, but you can taste the richness at the end.
That is why we would like to pair it with cheeses that have a strong sense of fermentation.
I think that Iburi gakko and cream cheese would go well with it.

Pair with grilled eel
2009BY was served warm. The color was a light yellow.
It has a clear, mellow flavor and is crisp and clean with the acidity of Yamahai. There is a slight burnt sensation due to the long aging, but it is moderate compared to the age of the bottle.
This is the first time I have tasted Suginishiki that has been aged this long, but it has a strong acidity and a strong Suginishiki character.
Purchase of a Sake Brewery
This is the third bottle of Shizuoka sake.
There were many brands with "Nishiki" in the name, so I continued to drink them.
When I asked for a sweet sake, I was told that Shizuoka sake is dry, and this was recommended among them.
He recommended this one, which he said was made by an accidental addition of yeast from the brewery and aged to taste like white wine.
When I tried it, I found that it really tasted like a white wine with its acidity and sweetness.
I would love to drink it again, but since it was created by accident, I doubt I will ever be able to drink it again.
Suginishiki, of which Tempo 13 was extremely favorable. Another spec close to it according to the liquor store's recommendation.
It is slightly yellow. Slightly alcoholic aroma.
Room temperature. Slightly syrupy and mineral when it is drunk. Then the umami comes out along with a distinctive sweetness, and it slowly pulls up with a sour center. There is little bitterness.
Although it is a super dry sake with a sake meter of +13, it seems rather sweet at room temperature.
The minerality is moderate and pleasant.
At 40°C (104°F), it is also good. It is also good. At 45℃, it is even more sharp, but it also has a slightly bitter taste. It is more beautiful than at room temperature. Warmed for its sharpness.
Tamakae is a heavy sake rice, but it is rather light, perhaps because it has been aged for only a few years.
In any case, the aging technique is top-notch. Combined with the super-cosmetics, this is a new favorite brand without question. It goes well with everything from light to rich food, and surprisingly goes well with salad.
