Hiyaoroshi Sake season is here!
Urakasumi Hiyaoroshi is light, juicy, and has a softly texture balanced with rich rice flavors. Fruit notes are predominantly apple and melon, that come nicely matched up with the sake's round savory quality. This one is good chilled, or slightly warmed.
Urakasumi brewery is located in the seaside town of Shiogama, in Miyagi prefecture. Naturally, this sake is going to shine with any seafood. Think grilled fish or fried oysters. Also, buttery mushroom dishes, and anything 'miso' are going to be knockout pairings.
Hiyaoroshi are limited, special Fall-released sake which are special lots set aside each spring when brewing wraps up, and aged over the summer. These seasonal sake are pasteurized just once, before aging. These bottlings are specially crafted to go with autumn cuisine, and show a unique balance of fruit, savory, nutty, and have a certain richness to them. They are a great way to warm up to the incoming cold weather!
