Purchased at Yame Kanko Bussan (tourist product center) on a trip. I regretted that I thought "Kyushu is for shochu! I regretted my assumption that shochu was the only way to go in Kyushu. What an elegant, yet delicious sake with a strong liquor taste! The beautifully colored label and bottle are reminiscent of tea, as is typical of Yame. The style is also lovely. I couldn't resist, so I'm drinking it cold for now, but I wonder if it would taste even better if it were chilled. How about heated? I can't wait to try it 😍. After that, I tried it lukewarm. Delicious! But lukewarm is the limit. It tastes bitter when heated. We also tried cold sake. This was unexpected. It was just too light and tasteless. As a result, I prefer it cold to lukewarm. I found very good yakitori and sashimi in Hakata on this trip, so I wanted to drink this sake with them.
