Umakuchi type Rice used: Hanabukiyuki Polishing ratio: 55 Alcohol level: 16% Sake level: ±0 Acidity level: 1.6 I met "Tasake" 🍶 when I went out of town. When opened cold, it had a slightly carbonated, elegant banana-like aroma, a combination of spicy and sweet flavors, and a soft, crisp taste 😊. When heated up, the spiciness and sweetness were reduced and it became easy to drink. The aroma is like a nutty aroma, just like Yamahai. Serve with salted squid When heated up, it would go well with kinpira (spicy fish cakes). Thank you for finding this delicious sake 🍶😊.

Aged type Ingredient rice: Yamae-Nishiki Aged for 3 years Rice polishing ratio: 60%, Sake meter value: +15, Acidity: 2.0 Between light-bodied dry and dark-bodied dry This is the first aged sake I've tasted. Because it has been aged for 3 years, it has a thin, jasmine and nutty aroma like Shaoxing sake, and is dry. When heated, the aroma softens and the flavor becomes stronger and easier to drink. Smoked cheese went well with it. Might go well with aged cured ham or salami. Also, this aroma would be good with lebanilla. Thank you for the delicious sake 😊.
