The description's fragrant, florid daiginjo character and the 35% polishing ratio point to high aroma. Low acidity (1.2) with SMV +4 suggests a soft, mildly dry, light-to-medium body, placing it in the kun (aromatic and light) style.

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