When you begin to warm this sake (up to 40C) the umami blooms and the finish becomes round. As it continues to warm (around 55C) however, it will begin to appear sharp and savory. The overall mouth-cleansing characteristics Noguchi's Fuyu (winter) brew with warm meat dishes and fried dishes will refresh one's palate after every bite!
