Honjozo with 70% polishing, genshu at 17% alcohol, and a description of old-style, flavor-focused honjozo point to restrained aroma and a full, rich body. The sweetness is likely moderate, consistent with the rich, rice-forward character described.

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