Drank at room temperature. The color is a hint of yellow. The olfactory intensity is high, and the olfactory persistence is sufficient. The taste on the nose - dominant aroma is of fermented rice. The taste on the nose - secondary aromas goes on hints of melon. The first impression of intensity in the mouth is of medium strength’s sake. The body is round. The taste intensity is normal, and the taste persistence is sufficient. The taste is pleasant. The final mouth sensations are ready to drink. The aroma in the mouth bears signs of melon and fruit.
