I've been slacking on the updates again...
I've been wanting to drink some Shinkame!
I'm looking forward to drinking it hot!
I can't get enough of the soft umami when drunk at room temperature.
The soft umami is irresistible when drunk at room temperature, but when heated to hot, the mild umami stands out and is the best.
If you drink it all the time, this level of richness is really just right!
I can't help but think that the Manjusen Kame Ichigou I drank a long time ago was incredibly rich.
I've had most of the Shinkame brands, but lately I've been liking the orange (purchased from Shinkame no Yakata) - I'm not a fan of the orange. This green one was also quite good. 2016BY, 24/7 release from the warehouse, so it's an old sake? It is a very old sake because it was brewed in 2016BY, 24/7. So it is very mildly sweet, which is rare for Shinkame. Good warmed up. Purchased with Hikoson from a liquor store in Hasuda city.

full-bodied rice flavor, gentle richness
The aroma is rich and grain-like, with a full-bodied rice flavor, a gentle richness, and a sharp finish.
It is best served lukewarm to hot!
#Nihon-shu
Colorless. At room temperature, it's a bit dry.
When heated, it has a mild umami flavor and is very sharp, but it has a surprisingly thin line and is best at 45℃. As the bottle is opened, it becomes rounder and has a sweetness like chocolate or cocoa.
