I drink this first tank every year, but this is my first time drinking arabashiri! The tailings are sinking quite well. When you turn it over, you can see from the movement of the tailings that it is very smooth. It's so beautiful that it might have been good for a video. The nose is fruity like a peach. It has a pleasant, swooshing sensation in the mouth. The mild fruitiness and the unexpected dryness of the aroma are surprising. The acidity is very effective and not only contributes to the dryness, but also enhances the juiciness. Overall, it tastes like a sparkling white wine. However, when I explored the taste, there was definitely a decent amount of rice flavor, which surprised me here as well. I think it can be enjoyed both before and during meals. It has a light mouthfeel, so it is a bit like a strong champagne, and I think it can be used as a toast. If you want to pair it with a meal, it would go well with appetizers such as carpaccio or salad, Asian-style dishes, or ahijos.
