The soft rice aroma and low 11% alcohol point to a restrained, light style, with the rice fullness described in the text adding some richness. The SMV of -24 suggests sweetness, which the crisp finish in the description moderates.

About

Aged for more than one and a half years, its color is truly champagne gold. It looks at home in a wine glass, yet what rises from it is a soft aroma of rice. Combined with its crisp flavor, it pairs especially well with Japanese cuisine. With an alcohol content of 11%, it is light and easy to drink, yet it still conveys a generous richness of rice.
