Description
It is a new kind of sake that you can enjoy the scent of a bouquet and the taste reminiscent of sweet and sour juicy fruits. When cooled, the sweet and sour taste stands out, and when the temperature rises a little, it feels like bitter chocolate. If you match it with food, it is good to have a sour or sweet taste, and it also goes well with ethnic spiciness.

From the brewery
ブーケをイメージした香りと、甘酸っぱくジューシーな果実を思わせる味わいを楽しめる新感覚の日本酒です。冷やすと甘酸っぱさが際立ち、少し温度が上がってくるとビターチョコのような味わいに感じられます。料理と合わせるなら酸味や甘味があるものが良く、また、エスニック系の辛さとも好相性です。Original text from the brewery, in Japanese.
