The 35% polishing ratio and the description of a graceful, floral aroma point to high aroma. The combination of rich (芳醇) and clear (透明感) flavor suggests medium body and moderate, not heavy, sweetness.

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