This sake is 3 years old with thoughts of Noto.
The aroma is quite distinct with a grain-like flavor.
It is suitable for cold sake, but can also be served warm. The first day was cold, so it was warmed up to 45°C. The acidity came out quite well, but it is not modern. It has a lot of acidity, but it is not modern. At 50°C, the acidity is the same, but the bitterness is a little more pronounced, so I'd go with 45°C. It's not as sweet as expected when heated, but it's still a good sake. At 50℃, the acidity is the same but the bitterness is a little more pronounced, so I would say 45℃.
On the second day, serve cold. The aroma is a little weaker, but the baked sweet potato-like flavor changes a little and becomes more syrupy. It is also aged for 3 years, so it is probably best served warmed.
I tried it with chicken, but it goes well not only with chicken but also with salads and seafood, making it a good food sake.
It seems to have only been made once, but we hope it will be revived after the reconstruction.
