Koei Kiku Tsukishita Muyori Unfiltered Nama Sake

Koeikiku has a low-alcohol image, but this one is 17°.
Unlike other Koeikiku sake, the brewer said it was robust and could be left at room temperature, so I gave it a try.
The first sip was a bit acidic, but the umami and robust flavor were well balanced.
The next day, the mouthfeel became a little rounder, and it was good even when heated.
I wonder if I'm in the minority in wishing there were more of this type of sake?
I didn't dare to leave it at room temperature at this time of year, but I tried 2 gou of it after leaving it half a month, and it seemed softer.
But I think I personally prefer it a couple of days after opening the mouth because it has more impact.
