Research notes
Lowest-priced product in the entire 12-item set (JPY 1,500), consistent with entry-level/thin grade positioning and lowest review count alongside Ato Mukashi. Note: the numeric flavor-chart description (light umami, high bitterness 4/5, minimal sweetness) reads somewhat inconsistently with the prose description on the same page ('rich umami and gentle sweetness with a creamy, lingering finish') - flagged below as an internal contradiction. Cultivar/farm/harvest date not disclosed.
