Today, we opened this bottle, which has been aged for more than a year.
The back of the bottle states that it was produced in February 2021, and that the quality guarantee period is June 30, 2021.
We opened the bottle with a sense of foreboding, but as it turned out, the taste remained the same, but the freshness disappeared and the mellowness increased. Also, compared to the last time I drank it, I feel that the complexity of the flavor has been reduced, perhaps due to its age, and it has become a calmer sake.
In terms of preference, I thought Sogape was best drunk fresh and on a hot day, without letting it sit too long.
