About
Milled to a rice polishing ratio of 60 percent, with the rice polished about 10 percent further than for the Gonimmusume Junmai, this sake has a more refined taste. It offers a more elegant flavor with the rich, umami-filled character typical of kimoto (traditional yeast-starter method), making it a flavorful ginjo. The alcohol content is 13 percent, lower than the Junmai, for a softer mouthfeel. ※ Unfiltered shizenshu (natural sake)
