Genshu at 17% alcohol, koshu aging, and the description of a mellow, rounded texture point to a full body. The fresh raw-sake aroma lifts aroma slightly, and sweetness is judged moderate.

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

About

This is a type commonly called namachozo (sake stored unpasteurized). It is matured in refrigerated tanks while still unpasteurized, and after bottling and pasteurization it is matured further in refrigerated containers. Its defining features are the fresh aroma of raw sake and the mellow smoothness of the matured palate.
