The palate is robust and sweet, with a slight tanginess in the mid-palate. The aftertaste is also heavy and acidic. It was unopened, but maybe I let it sit a little too long...?
Chilled
Mouthfeel: smooth, but not only easy to drink, but also umami.
Middle: Thick umami and sweetness, with a hint of acidity and a touch of alcohol.
Finish: A slight lingering aftertaste.
Hot
Mouthfeel: acidity, but still smooth and firm.
Medium Unlike Hiya, there is no acidity and it is delicious. Al-ness is still there.
Aftertaste: Heavy, including miscellaneous flavors.
