It was hot today, so I served it cold at first!
When it is cold at the beginning of drinking, it has a slight acidity, which is rounded and soft with the sweetness and umami bitterness of the rice. As the temperature rises, it becomes more matured and full-bodied, and the bitter taste becomes more pronounced and spicy at the end! Warming it up a little enhances the spicy flavor, which is also delicious.
This autumn sake has a deeper flavor when heated from room temperature 🍶.
Next is "Daishichi," second on the right.
Aroma of fermented seasonings like miso and soy sauce. The mouthfeel is also mellow, with a rich and deep flavor like men-tsuyu or bonito broth.
However, the aftertaste is surprisingly spicy and refreshing. It is the most peculiar, but it was a perfect combination with simmered mushrooms and kipper!
