＜Refreshing, soft lemon, sour and spicy sake.
The aroma is clear lemon.
When you put it in your mouth, it is slightly acidic, slightly sweet, and soft. The acidity is lemon-like and clear, but it is soft and fluffy, not acidic and pungent like a real lemon. From there, a refined umami flavor gradually emerges. The aroma is full of that mellow umami. The aftertaste, however, is slightly sweet and lingers for a long time.
The acidity is sharp and cool. However, although the acidity is strong, the umami sweetness softens the whole flavor and is not harsh. Delicious!
If I had to classify it as classic/modern, I would say it is modern. But I think it is modern in the classic sense. It's like a refreshingly modern wine with a solid acid classic base.
If I were to use a Ghibli analogy, I would say Jiro's mother in "The Wind Rises. The environment around her is classic countryside, and she is very beautiful and somewhat modern, even though she wears a kimono, and she is a beautiful woman. But I feel some tension in her relationship with Jiro.
