Low acidity of 1.3 and an SMV of +3 point to a soft, gently sweet profile. The description calls the aroma restrained but soft, and the umami of Miyamanishiki that expands with warm sake suggests a slightly full body.

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

About

It is not flashy, but its soft aroma and the umami of Miyama Nishiki rice come through well when served nurukan (lukewarm).
