5 to 10 years of ageing wine
Liquid color is very yellow
Aroma is peculiar, like Shaoxing wine
No schwarziness
Aroma of alcohol and mild taste
The aroma is not in the same lineage as the chestnut aroma, but the alcohol is strong and the mouth is filled with a mild but not fresh (too much vocabulary) and peculiar aroma spreads.
The aftertaste is also mildly peculiar.
First time drinking old wine
Vinegar-like aroma, like dried fish, thin Shaoxing wine, sweet mirin with no added sugar, strong taste, honestly difficult to drink, takes some getting used to.

Beautiful amber colored sake.
I usually tend to avoid this kind of aged sake type
I tend to avoid them,
but it went very well with the sesame oil flavored nira-tama!
The fact that it was lukewarm was also good.
It is sweet, rich, peculiar and amber! I had it heated and paired it with chocolate salami (3rd image on the right) and it was an adult sweet treat!
Sake is fun 🥰.

At Nihon Shu Tsubaki.
Long-aged sake at room temperature.
It has a beautiful yellow color that is typical of old sake.
The flavor spreads softly and has an elegant sugary sweetness, along with a dry dryness that comes along with it, making it easy to drink with a cohesive finish.
