The futsushu type, very negative SMV (-18 to -15) and nigori with plenty of moromi point to restrained aroma and high sweetness with moderate richness. The text describes a crisp chilled profile and a sweeter warm profile, so body sits near light.

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