Honjozo at 65% polishing, but a nama genshu at 18% ABV with SMV 0 and acidity 1.5 points to restrained aroma, a full and rich body, and a moderate sweetness. The text's emphasis on fresh flavor and suitability for both sweet and dry tastes supports this balance.

About

For those with room in the refrigerator, or those who already enjoy this sake regularly, the economical 1.8-liter bottle (isshobin) is recommended. The fresh flavor of namazake (unpasteurized sake) is also popular at the brewery shop's tasting corner. It is a sake that can satisfy drinkers who prefer sweet as well as those who prefer dry. Because this is a genshu (undiluted sake) with an alcohol content of 18%, it is also delicious on the rocks. Note: This is a namazake that has not been pasteurized. Store it refrigerated, and drink it soon after opening.
