We reserved this bottle because it was an unfiltered Otter Tankoba Kumi.
I was told that blue cheese would go well with the past pairings of vatoba-kumi, so I prepared blue cheese as well.
For a beginner, I found the pairing with hon tuna to be very tasty.
It was clean and very easy to drink with a fruity aroma.
This sake was a gift from Fukushima. I was told that lukewarm heating was recommended, so I microwaved the chilled sake and tasted it hot and then lukewarm.
The unique aroma of the sake was so pleasant to the nose. I felt it was easier for beginners to drink lukewarm than hot.
It is said to be a raw sake with an alcohol content of between 17% and 18%, so one would expect it to be harsh, but it is very fragrant and has a full flavor. It is delicious.
