The description of a gentle aroma, pronounced rice flavor and dry style, along with unfiltered aging for mellow umami, points to a restrained nose, a rich body and low sweetness. The 70% polishing ratio supports a fuller rice character.

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

About

Made with Gohyakumangoku rice from Shimane Prefecture, polished in-house. Because it is unfiltered and has been aged to develop a mellow umami, it has a natural color. Enjoy it chilled (hiya, at room temperature) or warmed (kan). It pairs well with dishes such as simmered fish (nizuke) and nikujaga (a stew of meat and potatoes simmered in soy-flavored broth).
