Kun-shu — aromatic and light

About
This is not in the same category as the "sake" or "seishu" we have known until now. It has aromas that are floral and fruity, with a juicy mouthfeel. Natural carbon dioxide, produced by yeast inside the bottle, bursts pleasantly on the tongue and throat. Of course, it is handmade using only rice and natural spring water, so it is also gentle on the body. It is a low-alcohol sake. (Because it is so delicious and easy to drink, please be careful not to drink too much. It has an alcohol content of 12%.)
