About
A clean, refreshing acidity stands out clearly, and the bitterness and astringency characteristic of Miyama Nishiki are expressed in measured balance. It is not flashy, but youthful and crisp as a namazake. The clean finish is also good. Alcohol content 15%, unfiltered nama genshu (undiluted, unpasteurized sake). When first opened, a noticeable gas sensation is present.
