I was finally in the mood (already?) to drink heated sake. I finally got in the mood for some heated sake, so I bought some.
Hiokizakura is a brewery in Tottori Prefecture that is known for its **heated** sake.
The rice used to make this "Goriki" sake was chosen for its strong umami and mellowness, and it tastes wonderful warmed up.
It has a great flavor, but it is also very sharp and powerful, and warming it up expands the umami, and the acidity tightens the flavor and gives it a good balance.
It's going to be a fun season for sake 😂.
Delicious 😋.
The world of Hioki Sakura can only be discovered by drinking it.
Jacket value ... 8/10
I like this kind of artistically designed jackets, which strangely make me intuitively think "this is a delicious SAKE".
Ki ... 10/20
The hue is amber, and the smell is not sweet, but rice.
Sei... 9/20
The texture is still light, but the "no-sweetness" nourishment refuses beginners, and some may start to cry.
The turn ... 11/20
The sublimation smell changes to rice! The taste is more astringent, and although it has a matured taste, it does not make you tired of drinking.
Closure ... 10/20
The astringency is artistic.
COSPA ... 2/10
I bought it for 2,150 yen, and I'm sorry, but I don't think this is the real thing for me.
I am sorry, but I don't think this is what I really want to drink.

If it is SAKE that is not sweet and does not scorch, what do we seek? But this film is about the smell of rice, and it is a very harsh one at that.
I do not recommend this film to anyone who does not believe that "the smell of rice is the true essence of SAKE! I do not recommend it to those who do not believe in "the smell of rice is the true meaning of SAKE!
It has a good texture on the tongue👍.
It is slightly sweet like mirin (sweet sake), but also tingling and stimulating on the tongue. The sharpness from the first taste. I want to warm it up!
Hot sake. The explanation was that the sake has a great flavor at first, but after that, it's very refreshing, but personally, I think I like the more sticky texture of the hot sake.
