So-shu — clean and light
SMV +5 and acidity 1.4 point to a dry, fairly light profile, and the text's restrained aroma, smooth passage and crisp finish outweigh the ginjo label. Umami backed by firm dryness places it in the restrained-light zone.
Estimated by AI from the published specifications and the brewery's description; your impression may differ.
About
A restrained aroma gives way to a pleasant sake that slips smoothly down the throat. Yet it finishes with a clean crispness, because a firm dryness sits within the umami that supports the sake's flavor. It is a complex taste, much like life itself.
