The junmai ginjo specs (55% polishing, 15% alcohol) and the description of a light, nimble mouthfeel point to a mildly aromatic, light-bodied profile. Summer aging adds gentle rice sweetness and soft acidity, giving a moderate sweetness and some added roundness.

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

About

Enjoy it with the refined flavors of autumn. Seasonal product (scheduled for release in mid-August)
