This is the one I had for Christmas.
It was a weekday but just to get in the mood!
The aroma is fruity with a hint of apple and rummy.
With the top clear, chili shuwa, Akabu-like acidity, apple, and a clean finish.
When mixed, oh, it becomes quite ricey. Apples, acidity, and rice. I was a bit surprised because I had always thought of Akabu as fruity and juicy, even though it is an orikarami. Of course, it has those things too!
I guess it's interesting how the flavors of orikara become more complex when mixed together.
The next day, the base was still fruity, sweet, and sour, but it was more like a rice soda. I thought that today would be the day for the usual Akabu's sour fruity taste, so it was surprising that it leaned more toward rice on the second day. But it is delicious.
The end of the bottle is less acidic than expected. The end result is a light nigori, a mild rice flavor.
It was an enjoyable Christmas with the unexpected and Akabu-ish parts 🌟.
I hope to catch up with your post before the end of the year...
I'd like to see the change after a few days of opening the bottle...
So when should I raise the alcohol to be opened today or tomorrow? I'm wondering 🤔

Good morning, Kotaro-san ^_^
I see that you also drank this one on Christmas Day👍.
It is indeed difficult to decide when to review the wine, considering the change in taste.

Hi Manta, ☀️
It's named XMAS, so if I miss this one, I risk putting it to bed until next year! So I opened it right away 🤣.
I know, I tend to accumulate them because I want to taste them all if possible 😂. I'd like to taste it all before I put it up 😂.
