Cold sake The aroma opens up so much at about 5°C! I can feel the muscat. Drink it. It is thick and heavy. However, the muscat and kiwi you feel immediately afterwards wash it away. The freshness of the fruit wet with the morning dew. Sweet and sour. After swallowing, a light sweetness lingers on the tongue. 45°C The aroma sinks. Not in a bad way, but a nuance like the residue of settled fruit wine. Drink. Thick and soft. It tightens and closes well to contain the flavor. Light sweetness and bittersweetness. As you swallow, the rising alcohol feeling and the acidity and bitterness that slightly offset it. 55°C The aroma of baked rice cake Drink it. It has a smoldering taste. But the flavor of rice and richness. The astringency is momentary as the tongue becomes wrinkled. As you swallow, the mellow alcohol from the fruit fills your nostrils. And an intense richness like egg yolk. 65°C Plump as if boiled down. Is this a fruit wine? Drink it. The fruit aroma is more dominant than the rice aroma. After a breath, it reverses and becomes confusing. The flavors come together after the confusion. A sake that goes its own way. When you swallow it, it leaves you with a look like "What is it? He left with a face like that. Something frustrating! I feel so frustrated with my drink! It's like he was pointing out my weakness I will not be repeating this! In a few years, I'll get my revenge! (What am I fighting?)
