Impression] Beautiful Yamahai Junmai sake.
The aroma is quite subdued and does not remind one of Yamahai at all when just poured, but as the temperature rises, the sense of Yamahai gradually emerges. It is a very beautiful sake.
It is not gorgeous, but its true value comes out when paired with dashi (soup stock) or umami (flavorful) dishes.
When heated, the acidity rounds out and the umami comes forward, making it even more delicious.
