The description of pear-like aroma, refined acidity and crisp finish, together with SMV +3 and 48% polishing, points to a fragrant yet light profile with a slightly dry lean. Genshu at 16% adds some weight, so richness sits in the middle.

About

To make the most of Koshikagura, a rice variety with Yamada Nishiki as one of its parents, the koji was made over a longer period than usual and crafted with care. Pasteurized once at bottling, the sake has a refreshing and gentle drinking character.
