The aroma is apple-like, typical of Nagano. When you taste it, it has a pineapple-like sweetness with a hint of ripeness, but it is also beautiful. It is also very beautiful, but it also has a slightly mellow, umami flavor. The aftertaste is quite bitter. The bitterness alone is enough to kill the taste, and there is almost no spiciness. It is a hard-to-find sake that was sold at a liquor store under very loose conditions, but I personally feel that the bitterness is a bit strong, and it doesn't sting that much. If it is a sweeter strain, I actually prefer it to be a little more obvious and sweeter.
