Slightly rice malt-like topping.
The same aroma as the top rise, mixed with citrus and melon-like aroma, soft sweetness and firm rice flavor spreads with a light acidity, leaving a lingering rice flavor and a slightly bitter finish.
It is characterized by its mild rice umami, which is a little different from the refreshing image of Natsukumo, but it goes well with meals and is also delicious on its own.
On the second day, the impression of the aroma changes a little and the mellowness increases.
It went well with grilled mackerel and fried fish.
It also went well with hamburgers and Neapolitan cuisine.
