Unpasteurized nama genshu at 60% polish, with the description citing a clean yet mellow richness, points to restrained aroma and a fuller body. Citric acid from the white koji adds a sweet-tart note, suggesting moderate sweetness.

About

Produced using a portion of white koji (shirokoji), which is not normally used in this brew. By combining separately produced yellow koji (kiko) and white koji, a sweet-and-sour character from citric acid is added on top of the existing acidity.
