This is a new 14% low alcohol sake, and I was looking forward to pairing it with sashimi tonight.
It was fresh and crisp, but had a nice fullness in the back, and was a good match with scallops and sea bream. This was my first Takeyuki, and it was delicious. We also got a bottle of Urasato Usunigorori (light nigori). This one has a nice shwash and a sharp body, and is very tasty on its own.
This one is a classic 😹, minus the Neko label.
One year old Aizan seems to be a rarity 🥸.
I bought a bottle because it can be stored at room temperature 😙.
It's a great sake when warmed up to lukewarm, the sweetness and umami spread gently and softly. ♨️
It's neither cold nor hot, but the lukewarm spread is just right and delicious 🫠.
This was the last bottle of heated sake to finish off the season when the weather was getting warmer: ☘️
