Food paired with
Meat Sauce Gratin★★★★☆ Refreshingly washes away grease!
Potato Salad (Ryuji)★★★★★ Goes well with garlic! Tabasco adds the missing acidity and is perfect!

Hiya (change from cold sake)
Aroma
The type of sake remains the same, but the overall aroma is 20% higher.
Taste
Attack - Gasiness decreases
