Hiyokizakura Sandesi was left in the fridge because I forgot when I bought it. I remember the reason I purchased it was because it was a sake from Tottori, a prefecture I had not yet tasted. I would like to drop by again if I have a chance because they had a wide variety of rather small volume bottles. I was also allowed to sample something, but I forget the brand name...
I can feel the umami of the rice, but to be honest, it seems to be a light and dry sake with a watery impression.
Good evening, Mr. Freelancer Ichiyo Otoko 😃.
Congratulations on your first Tottori sake 🍶 with forgotten Hioki Sakura 🎉.
I think this light and dry sake might enhance the flavor if paired with a tasty entrée 🤗.
Hi Jay & Nobby ^^^^.
You say it very well^^ I have to do something about the fact that I tend to forget about small volume bottles.
I wonder if it would be better to pair it with a strong flavored entrée, since it is so light.

Very smooth (o^^o)
Gentle, fresh, tongue-tingling sweetness with a hint of fermented acidity ☺️
Soft to the throat and easily absorbed ^ ^.
I want to drink it slowly when something good happens 😆.

Very juicy 🍇.
It has a fruity taste that is typical for a sake that is still in the bottle ^ ^.
Not too much acidity or bitterness. It has a thickening effect.
It has a thickening effect, almost like syrup 😁.

How about this year's Kashiwamori Hiyayoroshi?
Thick as usual, but dry!
Alcoholic stimulation but quite clear❗️Spicier than usual?
I think this would go well with sashimi or grilled white fish 🐟️.
Enjoy the mellow aroma in your mouth☺️.

I've had this beer every time I've had it, and I still think it's delicious!
The balance between the stimulation of the alcohol, the aroma of the lees, the sweetness and the faint sourness in it...
I buy this every time.

A little early Hiyaoroshi!
The aroma is sweet and full... like a baked sweet potato.
It's not as sweet as I thought it would be, but it's clean and still has some acidity! It goes down your throat like orange juice or mixed juice ^ ^.
I drink it every time, but it's so delicious❗️

Purchased at the Funabashi Tobu event.
Very fresh and fragrant.
The mouthfeel is gentler than the nose, but gradually becomes macerated by the intense alcohol. A nice balance of candy-like sweetness and soft apple-like acidity.
I drink it every year, and it's good again this year ⭐️.
