A 55% polished junmai-style sake with SMV +2 and acidity 1.6 points to a balanced, moderately dry profile with medium body. The description stresses rice umami over ginjo aroma, so the aroma stays restrained and the style sits in the rich-but-restrained quadrant.

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

About

While based on ginjo-style brewing (ginjo-zukuri), it is brewed with the primary aim of drawing out the rice's umami in a well-balanced way. As a versatile food sake that pairs well with a wide range of dishes, it can be enjoyed across a broad range of temperatures, from chilled to warmed (kan). Namazake (unpasteurized) is shipped during winter only.
