＜Slightly sweet and bitter →Gentle bitterness slowly seeps in.
The aroma is mysterious, with mineral and herb-like flavors.
In the mouth, there is a subtle sweet bitterness, followed slowly by bitterness. It is a beautiful and gentle bitterness with a sense of minerality. It's a bittersweet taste. Somehow, I feel the breath of the forest and the earth.
After swallowing, the aftertaste quickly disappears and is refreshing. The overt aroma is also centered on bitterness, with a hint of sweetness.
It is delicious.
If we were to compare this Yoshida Kurau to Ghibli, it would be like Kodama from "Princess Mononoke". It is something mysterious like a spirit or an innocent child in the forest of the Deer God. Written in Chinese characters, it is "Kirei," or "spirit of the trees. It is a being that is the very embodiment of the breath of the forest and the earth. By the way, according to the official Ghibli setting, the only Kodama left in the last scene will become Totoro several hundred years later.
