atoka
Slightly effervescent, the aroma fills the soft mouthfeel and the sweetness lingers for a long time. Purely delicious without any twists (compliments).
The day after opening the bottle, the gas was gone, but the impression was the same. The 805 I compared it to had a lesser aroma and a slightly heavier first attack. It would be interesting to warm this one up.

First dew leaf style. I don't feel the gas, but the ester scent is strong... leave it a bit longer and see what happens.

One week after opening, the ester aroma is gone, but the mouthfeel is a bit heavy. I'd like to warm it up.

I wanted to try Kaze no Mori after all this time, so I started with the standard Akitsuho. I don't feel much of an uptake, but when I take it in, it's active, bitter and a bit of koji, with a grapey aroma and sweetness that spreads out and cuts through quickly. Leave it for a while and observe.

Two days after opening, the carbonation has worn off and changed from grape to melon.

After 10 days of opening, all the gas has flown out and the aroma and flavor have expanded from an extremely soft mouthfeel to a nice, light flavor type. Delicious ☺️.

If you drink it in a normal glass, you can feel the bitterness strongly. It is well balanced in a wine glass.

The apple-like acidity is quite strong and dominates everything. I wonder if this is what it really is. I'll leave it a little longer and see how it goes.

Four days after opening, the acidity has settled down and the balance has improved, but the taste is unique and hard to describe. This is delicious in its own way!

Opened 27 days? (10/4) Soft mouthfeel, acidity weakening, light umami nuances. Good structure.

It is very soft on the palate, with sweetness, acidity and bitterness rushing in and out of the mouth. Sweetness, acidity, and bitterness rush in and out of the mouth and cut through it crisply, but it has a very long aftertaste. It's delicious.
It didn't have a fresh seal, so I kept it at 11°C. When I opened it up, it was active and shuffling... I'll have to try it again to see if this is what it should taste like...
