“This is extremely dry and strong sake. Although Tippsy's suggested temperature included "cold," the bottle says it should be served either at room temperature or warm.”
Hi - thank you for your review and for bringing this up. Our tasting notes and suggestions don't always match the manufacturer's labels 100%, but we are always updating and re-examining them, too. We think this sake tastes excellent chilled, too, but as the maker states, it really shines when warmed, which mellows out the sharpness and brings out more of the hidden umami.
We just updated the temperature to room temperature and warm so it's not confusing! Happy sipping to you.
“This lives up to it's super dry name. I wanted to try something on the opposite side of the spectrum and this super dry, umami-strong sake fit the bill. I don't think I care for my sake this dry and so full-bodied. I like the smoother, floral varieties but I think this is a great choice for some who like this type of sake,”
Hi Kenny Kong,
Thank you so much for your review!
Kagatobi “Ex Dry” is so much dry sake, so this sake must be pair with some spicy foods. This sake is acidity consists of complex flavors that combine with the full body for a clean finish. If you like this sake, I recommend that Kagatobi “Sen Nichi Kakoi” which is really great balance and so much umami!
Kampai!
“I loved this goes well with a steak or a burger etc has a nice kick to it hard. But nice good if you love a kick and good taste to it and for me its a must with a burger or BQQ great times”
Hi Dustin,
Thank you so much for your review.
Kagatobi “Ex Dry” is dry sake, so it must be pair with grilled meat. If you would like to drink some other dry sake, I recommend Otokoyama which is also dry sake.
“This does not disappoint as a dry sake. It pairs very well with more delicately-flavored foods since it does not compete for attention on your palate.”
