Junmai ginjo at 55% polish with SMV +5 and acidity 1.5 points to a gently fruity aroma and a light, crisp body. The nigori texture adds softness and a slightly sweeter impression.

About

Light and refreshing, well suited to summer. Best served well chilled in a glass. This sake was made to let you enjoy Hojo (豊醸), a popular aged sake best served warmed (kan), in a new-sake form. Although the two share the same specifications, the difference in character is surprisingly large.
