Nearly colorless pale yellow
The first impression of the aroma is gentle
banana, caramel, lime, dumplings, bitter chocolate
First impression of the taste is rather strong
Caramel-like sweetness, firm acidity, bitter with bitter chocolate taste.
The bitterness has a strong presence, but it wears off quickly, so it is not unpleasant.
I was fooled by the cute label and aroma.
It's quite a punch at the moment of drinking it.
I can feel the chocolate.
I wonder if it would taste good with chocolate, or maybe it would cancel each other out.
I wonder what goes well with chocolate,
I think it would go well with nuts.
Salty nuts, like the peas from persimmon peas.
