(right after opening the bottle)

Clear and colorless.
Very fine bubbles slightly stick to the glass.
Mellow ginjo aroma.
In the mouth, it has a delicious full-bodied taste with sweetness and acidity.
Slightly carbonated.
Fresh but not too fruity.
The lingering aftertaste is medium and has no peculiarities.
The aftertaste is refreshing.
Warming increases the richness and sharpness of the flavor, but shortens the aftertaste.
It goes well with salmon poke and golden squid.
Warm to lukewarm
It has a strong sweet aroma with a slight savory flavor.
The sweetness is very strong, but the acidity and the clean aftertaste make the taste less clingy and different from cold sake.
Hot sake
A lot of bubbles are generated and the carbonation is lost.
Alcohol smell becomes stronger when lukewarm.
The sweetness weakens, but the richness and acidity remain the same, and the aftertaste is refreshing and delicious.
When heated, it goes very well with cheese with anchovies.
Different temperatures give different tastes, and the order of preference is lukewarm, cold, and hot, in that order.
The sweetness is a little more noticeable when the wine is cooled.
