Of course, this is the first brand I have ever had. It is an aged type, which is rare in Tohoku, and is said to be at least 3 years old, but the BY is unknown.
Not much color.
The temperature starts at 40℃. In addition to the umami of the rice that gradually expands, there is a good amount of minerality. It is not sour, but a favorable minerality. It becomes spicy and sharp as it is.
45°C. Not much change, but it becomes spicy and has a strong sharpness. The acidity is stronger at lower temperatures.
50℃. It is better at 40-45℃.
It smells a little medicinal at room temperature, so it is best to warm it up according to the label's recommendation.
Compared to Daishichi, it is lighter, and the minerality gives it a slightly refreshing taste. It has a characteristic balance of umami and minerality, which is quite my favorite among aged sake. The brand name is difficult to write, and I wish they would disclose more information (there is not even a website of the brewery).
I had it warmed ✨I was told that the rice would gently wrap around you and it really does 🤗It's soft and gentle and tastes great cold, but I love the gentle aroma when it's warmed 🙂.

A mellow, mature aroma spreads on the palate. However, the alcohol is not harsh, but rather spreads quickly and is neither harsh nor unpleasant. The aftertaste is not as long as one might expect, and disappears quickly. It is an interesting sake where only the umami can be enjoyed.
