chilled sake
I thought it would be more relaxed because it was hiyaoroshi, but when I opened the bottle, it had a complex aroma of honey apple, banana, and pineapple!
It was quite chilled, but the flavor is also very strong.
Nice in a wine glass (when cold).
The aroma, the clean sweetness, and the slight bitterness at the end, rather than just a taste of rice, are all enjoyable.
Not much or no acidity.
---A little bitterness at the end.
Cold (room temperature)
Fruity aroma is muted and it seems to be more off-flavor.
It tastes better chilled.
---It tastes better when chilled.
Hot sake
The correct answer was this! 50 degrees is good!
I wondered how it would be because the aroma was the main attraction, but the aroma is still there and the umami is also improved!
---The aroma is still there and the taste is better.
Cooking
I bought hiyaoroshi to match with fish, but it was unexpectedly gorgeous, so I hesitated and made a mushroom cream sauce with grilled sunfish, lotus root and green onion, but it didn't match at all!
The next day, I wanted to find the right answer, so I used four different spices and various ingredients!
The Hiramasa was also aged in Kawazu's Mangetsu salt and smoked with apple chips.
The result says that the lotus root was the best...
