About
When warmed (kan), it has none of the distinctive aroma or piercing sharpness that warmed sake can have. Instead it offers a full, rounded body and an excellent clean finish. It also pairs excellently with richly flavored dishes. From summer (May to September), it is shipped with a shoulder label (katabari) reading "Karakuchi Honjozo" (dry honjozo).
