The description says summer aging softened the fresh bitterness and astringency into a mellow profile. With a 60% polish junmai-style sake, this points to restrained aroma, a rounded fuller body and moderate sweetness.

About

Over the summer, this Tokubetsu Junmai sake rested in the cool brewery. As it matured, the fresh bitterness and astringency typical of freshly pressed sake (shiboritate) softened, giving rise to "Aki," a mellow sake. This autumn release (akiagari) can be enjoyed chilled or warmed.
