I've been drinking Miyazen and Collage for the past few months. I guess this is an autumnal drink in its own right. As it says on the Miyazumi Meijo website, the initial aroma is refreshing, like apples, and when you drink it, you can feel citrusy acidity, like grapefruit. Overall, it is very juicy with a strong sense of some kind of fruitiness. In the literal sense of the word "fruity," it can be called "fruity," but I don't think it's the same as the fruity you imagine. This is because, as is typical of Miyazumi, the flavor itself is quite intense. If I were to use a manzai (comic dialogue) metaphor, I would say it's like when someone says "Shabekuri manzai" and they get Jaru Jaru. Laughs When you try to drink it purely on its own, I think it has "strength" along with umami, acidity, and a bit of bitterness. It is easy to lose the balance with light dishes such as white fish sashimi, so I think it goes well with slightly thicker dishes such as Chinese stir-fries or black vinegar sauce.
