Yummmm!!!
This is my first "Niida Sanshu" and it is surprisingly good! It's my first time tasting it, but I'm already shocked that I want another bottle!
Seriously, I'm going to hit the storehouse!
The mouthfeel is refreshing, with a good balance of acidity and sweetness on the palate. It has a slight ginjo taste, but I don't think it bothers me that much.
