So-shu — clean and light
The description's 淡麗辛口 and sharp, dry palate, together with SMV +7 and acidity 1.8, point to a restrained, crisp, dry profile. The 18% genshu and nama character add some weight, while the fresh aroma stays modest.

About
This junmai sake is made with Aichi-grown rice, cultivated using compost made from food waste generated in Nagoya, and is bottled in reusable bottles marked with an "R" symbol. After enjoying the sake, customers can return the empty bottle to collection points in areas that run bottle reuse programs, or to liquor shops that collect bottles. The bottles are washed and reused. The sake is born only when producers, sellers, drinkers, and returners form one circle together. It is a Meguru Aichi ("circulating Aichi") sake aimed at a recycling-oriented society. Flavor Designed as a Tanrei (light and clean), dry sake that can be enjoyed chilled or warmed (kan) without ever becoming tiresome. It has the refreshing, sweet aroma characteristic of new sake, a smooth and crisp mouthfeel with moderate acidity, and a clean finish (kire) that comes together neatly. It is a versatile food sake that cleanses the palate at the end of a meal.
