Dry as fallen leaves
This sake is brewed in the cold of winter, matured in a cool place over the summer, then enjoyed in the windy days of autumn. The maturation allows this sake’s flavors to mellow and take on more umami. Toyonoaki “Hiyaoroshi” is extra dry, but it is accompanied by the sweetness of rice and the umami from aging. Drink it from a thick glass to enhance the gentle mouthfeel.
