At the Hiroshima Antenna Shop. I was torn between Takekizuru and Tomikyucho, but I went for this one because it seemed more like a local sake. I was attracted by the pop-up saying that it looks great warmed up. It was a cold day and I wanted to warm up the sake. ☺️
I started with it cold. It had a gentle aroma of rice, a slight umami flavor, and was easy to drink without much acidity. Mmmm.
I immediately tried heating it up, which was my main goal. It was a big change! It became full-bodied and acidic, and could be served by itself or as a mealtime drink.
It is not the kind of sake with a strong mirin flavor, but it goes well with dishes with strong flavors.
