Premium Japanese sake is meant to be enjoyed either slightly chilled (suzu-bie) or gently warmed (nuru-kan). Lower quality sake is often served boiling hot to mask the unpleasant flavors, aromas, and rough texture of inexpensive, mass-produced sake.
Tozai Typhoon is a versatile premium sake that is delicious not only served chilled but also gently warmed as it is enjoyed during Japanese winters. Or substitute Typhoon for vodka or gin to give cocktails an Asian twist.
[Note: There is little info on the type of sake this is on the web, most sites suggest Futsu-shu or Honjozo, so I’m giving this the benefit of doubt. -Ernest]

Bottle getting to 10 for style. Clearly labeled Futsu on bottle. Clear pour. Nose is fruity and some alcohol. Tastes of pear and pomegranate. Rice and alcohol touch of almond. Cheap and low polishing for sure but not unpleasant.
