Flavor profile Kun-shu
Kun-shu — aromatic and light
The ginjo classification and the described soft ginjo aroma point to a fairly expressive nose, while the clean, transparent dry character with SMV 7 to 8 and low acidity of 1.2 indicates a light body and low sweetness.

About
A Niigata tanrei (light, clean-style) sake, and that description fits this ginjo well. A gentle ginjo aroma rises first, softly and fragrantly. On the palate it is clean and dry, with a floral nuance that drifts like blossoms. Chilled, it brings out a gently refined flavor. At room temperature it goes down smoothly and easily. At any temperature it keeps its clarity and conveys the character of Niigata tanrei. This sake is, so to speak, all-around. It pairs easily with Japanese cuisine in general and does not get in the way of the food. This too is a hallmark of Niigata tanrei. When gathering with friends who have varied tastes, I would recommend a basic Niigata tanrei ginjo with this kind of clarity.
