Shinkame releases most of their Saké after ageing at least 2 years. And this Mahoto is 4 years old. It has been made from Gohyakumangoku(one of well known true brewers' rice), which was grown using only recycled natural products such as fallen leaves etc as mulch. The sake is a pale straw colour and at room temperature has a pleasant aroma suggestive of fermented rice. The flavour at this temperature is clean and uncomplicated with a hint of fennel leaving a faint aftertaste. At around 40¡ëc the flavour become more pronounced and at the same time integrated, smooth and more rounded with more aftertaste. This sake is easy to drink both at room temperature and around 40c.
