The sake I received I had had the same one at a pub, so I let it sit in a cool dark place for about 6 months to mature on its own. (immediately after opening the bottle) Clear and colorless Mellow aroma In the mouth, it has a full-bodied flavor with a good sense of maturity and a firm rice flavor. After the taste spreads for a while, it finishes with a weak dryness. Better with pork belly and radish than sashimi It seems to go better with strongly seasoned snacks. The aging process does not give the impression of aging, and it seems to be working in a positive direction for the first time. It is not so good when it is warmed up. (The day after opening the bottle) Warmed to lukewarm Tangy alcohol smell. The full-bodied flavor weakens a little, and the taste quickly becomes sharp. Heat sake to hot Alcoholic smell disappears, and a weak matured aroma can be felt. Taste is the same as lukewarm. No alcohol smell compared to lukewarm, which is good.

Purchased at a liquor store in Kasuga City I had the impression that the sake was aged before shipping, so I was attracted by the word "nama-zake", which is the opposite of "sake". (Immediately after opening the bottle) Drink cold Slightly colored but clear Gorgeous aroma Rich and mellow taste in the mouth. Unlike other Kikuhime, it does not have the peculiar taste of aging. Better with blue cheese than sashimi, etc.

Purchased at Toshimaya in Dazaifu City I have the impression that Tohoku sake is sold at Michinoku Plaza next to Tenjin Station, but this is the first brand I have seen, so I bought it! Drink it cold Colorless and transparent It has a peculiar taste with a sense of maturity. It is not a good pairing for sashimi and other dishes due to the peculiarity of the sake. The name "Nama-Seizou" means "freshly stored", so the sake may be shipped after it has been aged.

A while passed after receiving it on our anniversary. The beans for good health that came with the bottle are impressive. (Immediately after opening the bottle) Drink it cold Colorless and transparent Mild ginjo aroma A strong rice flavor on the palate The taste goes smoothly down the throat. The taste wears off quickly. The dryness is weak and the taste is very refreshing. Warmed to lukewarm Mellow aroma The aroma and flavor are much more pronounced and delicious. When paired with sashimi, it does not enhance the flavors of each other, but for some reason it seems to go well with it. Hot sake Aroma similar to corn The flavor is not as broad as that of lukewarm sake, but it has a nice lightness that rinses the palate quickly. Better with strong flavored hormones than sashimi Tastes best lukewarm, and is easy to pair with snacks.

Izakaya a short walk west of Fukuma Station drink cold sake cloudy white color When the glass is lifted, the Masu placed under the glass is lifted. Strong sweetness in the mouth with a slurping sensation and a touch of alcohol. Rough and fine-grained texture similar to a smoothie Not bad with salted fish, green pepper, or cured ham. A distinctive sake with a distinctive character that stands out no matter what kind of accompaniment it is paired with. When warmed up, the pairing with snacks is not felt at all and it is hard to drink

Izakaya a short walk west of Fukuma Station drink cold sake Clear and colorless The aroma is almost imperceptible. Hard and rich on the palate, with a delayed woody nuance. The taste is immediately crisp and clean, but there is no dryness in the aftertaste. It is truly a dry sake. When served with sashimi, the sake tastes light.
