The description of a smooth, clean, non-thick nigori with a dry character for its style, plus acidity of 1.7 and lively carbonation, points to a light, crisp profile. The SMV of -4 suggests sweetness, but the description was weighted more, so aroma is restrained and sweetness moderate.

Estimated by AI from the published specifications and the brewery's description; your impression may differ.

About

Although it is a nigori (cloudy sake), it has a smooth, refreshing mouthfeel without being heavy or thick, and the natural carbonation that forms inside the bottle is pleasant on the finish. As nigori goes, this is a dry style, which makes it even crisper to enjoy. It is an original sparkling sake from Nagaragawa. (Refrigeration required; unpasteurized namazake.) Caution: foam may spray out when opening. Do not shake the bottle before opening.
