Shinkame Junmai-shu GAMERA -Rebirth
The label is so cool...
I'm in love with the label...
I'm in love with Shinkame's sake!
This Gamera Shinkame is a blend of two types of aged sake
I drank it from chilled to warmed temperature.
As I thought, the goodness of Shinkame is released much more when it is warmed up!
The aroma, sweetness, umami, and sharpness overflows!
The sweetness is strong and gives the impression of "freshly cooked rice".
Such a Gamera Kamikame!
It is good to be sharp without pulling the sweetness out of it.
As always, you can feel the depth of sake!
It is a good sake!
Shinkame's raw sake. Alcohol 16.5%. It is thick and rich, but you will never get tired of drinking it. It seems to go well with all kinds of food.
By the way, we had meat and potatoes, seasonal sparkling firefly squid, cucumber with miso mayo, and boiled broccoli. It was delicious and I drank too much😆.
Sake is junmai, even better when heated. Legendary, which we saw at the sake store Yamanaka in Osaka Station. The yellowish color gives a sense of maturity, and the caramel aroma is nice. The red turtle is also cute. The use of all sake brewing rice is also excellent. Sake-like acidity and umami. Not a warmed sake, but good. I am glad to have met Shinkame.

3rd brewery at the Iida Sake Shop Gokuraku Kai, 4th brew at Shinkame Shuzo ✨.
Warmed up ♨️ It's like an aged version of onigiri. It still has a soft sweetness. Calm impression.

Junmai Dry 🍶.
Third brewery in the Iida Sake Shop Gokuraku Kai, third cup of Shinkame Shuzo 😆.
It looks burnt. Wife says I want to eat oden🍢 😅 If it's heated up hot, spicy snacks are good.

Here is the third brewery for the Iida Sake Shop Gokuraku Kai. Shinkame's first cup 😆.
Like cotton candy, it disappears quickly. Sweet but not lingering. Sweet squash ✨ grape aroma 🍇 Refreshing ✨.
They put in hot steamed rice balls🍙 after the three-stage brewing process to promote saccharification🧐.

Next, one of them likes this! Next, one of them said, "I love this!
Shinkame with warmed sake
The master (owner) recommended 65 degrees 😅.
He said this sake tastes best at this level.
Sake gets fuller in aroma and taste as you warm it up, but it goes without keeping its balance.
It gets good when it gets to a certain point. That temperature depends on the sake.
When you drink it, it is voluptuous
It is also delicious when heated 😋It is said that when it cools down, it does not lose its balance
It has flavor and aroma
We opened a bottle of "SPRING LIGHT", a seasonal sake from Shinkame.
This sake is brewed with Aomori Prefecture's Hanafubuki sake rice.
It has a gentle taste with a soft sweetness that lingers on the tongue. The alcohol content is a little high at 16.5 degrees, but you can easily drink it without noticing.
The cherry blossom color surrounding the label makes me want to enjoy this sake as a Hanami sake. Delicious: ‼️
Junmai sake with a vivid amber color. The clerk at the liquor store recommended heating it up. This is my favorite. I want to drink it slowly with a delicious meal with its elegant flavor.
Would you like another hot sake?
Here it is!
I drank it cold three years ago at Shouei's, and now I want it hot!
The waiter made it hot again!
The aroma is still very unique!
It doesn't have the yellow tinge like the last time!
The taste was right to have it hot.
Shinkame is best served hot!
More and more skewers were served!
We eat and drink 🍶!
