First of all, let us all rejoice that sake has been recognized as a UNESCO World Intangible Cultural Heritage! I hope this will be a good opportunity to make more sake friends.
Shinkame Shuzo is a long-established brewery that has consistently focused on making pure rice sake. The name and label design are trendy these days, and the sake quality is not to everyone's taste, but I think it is an excellent sake worth drinking. As expected, this sake is recommended for warming up, but you can enjoy its rich flavor and the delicious taste of rice.
The color is amber, which is perfect for those who like heated sake!
When served hot, it has a noticeable aroma with a strong flavor characteristic of aging. The rice flavor that can be felt slowly from the top to the aftertaste makes it a good cup of sake.
It has a strong dry taste and goes well with miso dishes.

Enjoy it hot. It's finally getting into winter-like weather, so I decided to warm up some sake. It becomes much mellower when heated. I'd like to enjoy it while it warms up and cools down.
