It took 5 minutes to open the bottle with a great schwizz.
Creamy, shwashy, and refreshing with a hint of nigori astringency. I don't dislike creamy shwashy, but I don't like it either, but this time it was a "good harvest brewing prayer festival"! Hoping for lots of fruitfulness in my life this year!
It was perfect with a delicious fatty grilled tonon!
(The second day was better as the shwashwa calmed down and the balance of umami, acidity, astringency, and sweetness could be felt!
