The 17% alcohol and the description of a deeply flavorful unpasteurized sake point to a rich, substantial body. A sake meter value of +5 and acidity of 1.5 suggest a fairly dry profile with restrained aroma.

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

About

This richly flavored namachozo (stored unpasteurized) sake, with an alcohol content in the 17 percent range, is packed in a 900 ml glass kame (jar). The clarity of the glass and the refreshing quality of the namachozo sake create a sense of coolness. Each year it is shipped as a summer-only release from April through September. It is well received not only for home use but also as a gift for ochugen, the summer gift-giving season.

Available only in summer, from May through September each year.
