Sizzle when opening the bottle
Slightly gassy
Slightly sweet citrusy overtone
Fruity aroma like sweet grapefruit, soft sweetness and rice flavor spreads with moderate acidity and a touch of gas, leaving a slightly bitter, sweet aftertaste that quickly fades away.
The balance of sweetness, umami, and acidity is pleasant, and the bitterness is moderate for an ogara-mi, making it easy to drink.
It goes well with meals and is of course delicious on its own.
It went well with pasta with seafood in tomato sauce.
