Junmai ginjo at 60% polishing with origarami, but the description stresses a fresh, refreshing taste, pointing to restrained aroma and light body. The gentle lees texture adds some roundness and mild sweetness.

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

About

First pressing of the new sake. It has a faint white cloudiness, as it is an origarami (lees stirred back into the sake) style. It is fresh and refreshing in character, and was brewed with the aim of enhancing the flavors of winter seafood. It pairs well with Japanese cuisine, including osechi (traditional New Year's dishes). Enjoy it with winter seafood in general, such as crab, yellowtail (buri), and oysters.
