The 40% polished junmai daiginjo is described as umami-rich and plump with clean acidity that unifies into a refined taste. This points to a restrained-to-moderate aroma, a slightly full body and low sweetness.

About

Reimei is a rice whose growers have dwindled sharply year by year, and it is now often called a rare rice. As a table rice (meshi-mai), it offers umami and a full, rounded body, and its clean acidity comes together into a refined flavor. Recommended serving: chilled sake
