The Yoshino cedar cask aroma lifts the nose modestly, while the described koku and umami with 70% polishing point to a full-bodied profile. An SMV of 0 and low acidity of 1.2 suggest a soft, moderately sweet impression.

About

Sake is matured in barrels made of Yoshino cedar (Yoshino sugi), which is regarded as the finest wood for sake casks. The clean fragrance of the cedar harmonizes beautifully with the sake's distinctive body (koku) and umami.
