Slightly peachy on the top.
The same mild aroma as the first sip, a moderate sweetness and mild umami of rice, along with a crisp acidity and a slight bitterness, gradually spreads out and is quickly quenched.
The acidity and slight bitterness that rise from the mid-palate are impressive and crisply delicious.
It goes well with a meal, but is also refreshing and delicious on its own.
We received fresh akitogi from a fishery company, so we had akitogi again today as we did yesterday!
It went well with grilled fish, sashimi, and lebanilla!
