Moderate gasiness
Slightly strawberry-like nose.
The same aroma as the fruity topping, plump sweetness, and rice flavor spread sizzlingly, and it finishes quickly with a hint of bitterness and slight acidity.
It is a little sweet, but the bitterness and acidity harmonize with each other, giving it a fresh and well-balanced flavor. It is good as a stand-alone sake or as a mid-meal drink.
It went well with pasta with shrimp, scallops, and oyster mushrooms in tomato sauce, steamed asparagus with mayonnaise, and sauteed asparagus wrapped in pork belly.
