Gachi Showdown! Shochiku Ume Subaru vs. Kikumasamune Gin Pack A head-to-head drinking comparison of the newly released Kiku-Masamune Subaru 300mL bottle and its rival Ginpak. Let's start with Subaru. The aroma is clear with cemedine and sweet alcohol. The aroma has a hint of melon ginjo aroma. The cemedine flavor gives it a freshness. But it is a bit strong, so there are different tastes. In the mouth, fresh fruit sweet, sour and bitter. Lychee, melon, and menthol. It is filled with a hint of bitter alcohol. The aftertaste is also sweet and bitter alcohol. It has a headache feeling with alcohol. 14 degrees, but it's clearly alcohol. Well, I'm sorry. This was not for me. Gimpak on the other hand. The top aroma, a ginjo aroma of pears and apples. The strength of the aroma is about the same as that of Subaru, but Gimpac has a gentler aroma. On the palate, it has a gentle sweetness and moderate acidity. It is gentle, yet very fruity. The aroma is even sweeter than the actual taste. Yes, this is really delicious. Degree of liking Shochiku Ume Subaru : ★★★ Kiku Masamune Gin Pack: ★★★★ As a result, Kiku-Masamune Gimpac won hands down.
