The honjozo designation, 70% polishing ratio and SMV +10 point to a restrained, dry, light style, and the description calls it the driest sake in the brand. That implies low aroma, a light body and very little sweetness.

Estimated by AI from the published specifications and the brewery's description; your impression may differ.

About

Recommended for those who love dry sake. Enjoy it chilled or warmed (kan), and please drink in moderation. The 辛口 (karakuchi, meaning dry) character on the label is calligraphy by calligrapher Yamamoto Terumi.
