<Sweet with a hint of bitter melon.
Sake made with that CEL-24 yeast.
The aroma is gentle, slightly sweet and fruity.
The mouthfeel is like green apples with a mildly sour sweetness. It has a cute, understated but refreshing sweet and sourness. But then, the sweetness of melon comes in! One step later, a pleasant bitterness also comes in! The bitterness lingers in the aftertaste, while a hint of bitter-sweetness lingers in the mouth.
This bitterness is very pleasant. It is not sticky sweet, but cuts through the sweetness nicely.
It is quite different from Kameizumi's sweetness. It is sweet, but there is also a bitterness in it, and it goes well with meals. Both are delicious.
If I were to use a Ghibli analogy, it would be the senior witch in "The Witch's Delivery Service. She is cute, but that's not all; after a year of training, she has learned a lot about bitterness and has a strong character.
