I couldn't stand still and went to Kamikame no Yakata after I got a 20 years aged Hikoson at a famous store in Urawa 😂.
There was a 9 year old one and I didn't hesitate to buy it 💖I kept it warm that night and tried it at ♨️
The nutty aroma of ripeness and the spread of umami and sweetness is a big hit 🥜.
It's not fluffy, but it's a big bang 💥 but not too dry and gorgeous 🤤 so you want to drink it over and over again.
I wish I knew about heated Shinkame earlier 🥺.
It is said to have been aged for three years, although this is not emphasized up front. The firm flavor typical of Saitama sake is matched by the matured caramel aroma.
It is not the type of sake with a gorgeous aroma, but the aroma of green bamboo and honeysuckle is well balanced with the junmai-like rice flavor.

The taste and aroma spread out when it was heated up, and it was completely different!
I can't describe it in one word, and I can't speak for myself, so if you haven't tried it yet, please give it a try!
Anyway, it is a very good sake!
Aged
Drinking with friends (all you can drink) chaos.
The aroma is soft like La France.
Rice-like taste when you drink it.
Smooth texture.
The umami has a core and is beautiful.
Degree of preference ☆ 3.5/5
