So-shu — clean and light
SMV +12 and acidity 2.5 with a 60% polishing ratio point to a dry, crisp junmai with restrained aroma, consistent with the description's 'キレの良い辛口' and its suitability for fried and grilled foods. The profile sits in the so (crisp, restrained) quadrant with light body and low sweetness.

About
The rice used is Gohyakumangoku from Fukui Prefecture. It pairs well with fried foods such as tempura of white-fleshed fish and seasonal vegetables, as well as meat dishes such as barbecue. In the hot summer months, enjoy it well chilled. As the weather cools, try it at room temperature or warmed (kan). The label features a playful design of fish from Chita, made with old-cloth appliqué. It was designed by a customer who is a fan of Hakuro. The standard label shows a kawahagi (filefish). From late April to early August, a summer-limited label featuring a haze (goby) is used instead.
