Kun-shu — aromatic and light
A 70% polish, SMV +3 and acidity 1.6 point to a crisp, fairly dry and light body, and the description's refined ginjo-like aroma and clean finish place it in the gently aromatic kun style.

About
Made with 100% Yamada Nishiki contract-grown by farmers in Kyoto Tango, and brewed with ultra-soft water. The rice is not polished excessively, yet the sake offers a refreshing acidity and an elegant ginjo aroma, with a clean finish. It can be enjoyed chilled or lukewarm (nurukan).
