Whenever I go to Kyoto, I stop by a liquor store, which is a special distributor of Matsunotsu no Tsukasa. The special junmai is a rare class of sake that only a limited number of liquor stores carry. This time, however, they had a bottle of nama-shu on hand, so I bought a four-pack of nama-shu and a bottle of hi-iru (hi-iri).
It is interesting to note that the sake and acidity levels change between the nama and hi-iru versions.
Today's sake was the first.
The first sip was delicious.
Sweet but delicious.
I was at a loss for words.
Matsu no Tsukasa is one of my favorite brands of sweet sake with a sharp aftertaste, so it is easy to pair with sashimi and other dishes.
And above all, heated sake is delicious.
But it's hot. I was sweating after drinking hot sake.

Good evening, Pon-chan.
Shiga's sake is good, with many subdued types that go well with meals. Personally, I like Matsu no Tsukasa or Shichihon Yari.
