The SMV of +2, acidity of 2.2 and 65% polishing point to a restrained aroma and a umami-forward, fairly full body. The description of slightly dry, crisp, fresh rice flavor places it in the jun quadrant.

About

Made with 100% new-crop Wakamizu rice grown by contracted farmers in Tokoname, including Doi Sakichi, this junmai sake is a freshly pressed (shiboritate) new sake. Slightly dry, it offers the striking rice umami characteristic of Wakamizu, a clean finish, and the lively, fresh mouthfeel unique to new sake.
