Taste
Attack is strong to normal. Sweet, with a bitter taste that is deep.

The bitterness is clear and there is only alcohol bitterness in the second half
Aftertaste
Sweetness and bitterness remain.
Good as a food wine
Beautiful, sweet and bitter
It was so sweet and fruity that I thought it might have been mistaken for a non-Yamahai Junmai Ginjo.
It was so sweet and fruity that I thought it was a Junmai Ginjo.
