Shupon when opening the bottle
Moderate gassiness
Sweet grape-like aroma on the nose
The same fruity aroma, full sweetness, rice flavor, and moderate acidity spread out in a well-balanced manner, and the bitterness and tangy feeling of the alcohol quickly fades away.
Aromatic, well-balanced, and deeply delicious!
It went well with the tuna and maika on top of a bowl of rice topped with pickled tuna and sashimi.
It also went well with chocolate buckeyes (ice cream from Chateraise).
It went well with both steaks (salt and sauce).
The weeping cherry trees in a nearby park were in full bloom.
