The 55% polishing ratio and ginjo-style brewing give a modest aroma, while the SMV of +6.5 and acidity of 1.8 make it dry and crisp. The description of refreshing, umami-tinged delicate flavor places it near the light side with moderate richness.

About

A Junmai Ginjo sake brewed with Shimane-grown sake rice (sake rice, shuzo kozui-mai) Sakanishiki and groundwater that flows beneath the riverbed (fukuryusui) of the Takatsugawa River, which has been honored as Japan's top clear stream (seiryu Nihon-ichi). This refreshing, umami-rich Junmai sake is best enjoyed chilled or lukewarm (nurukan) to savor its delicate flavors. It pairs well with tempura and sashimi such as Japanese halibut (hirame).
