The 59% polishing ratio and honjozo designation point to restrained aroma, and the description's "すっきり" and "サラッと" wording indicates a light, clean body. The noted slight sweetness and moderate umami suggest mid-level sweetness and richness.

About

Its clean, well-balanced flavor can be enjoyed both chilled and warmed (kan). The flavor of this Tokubetsu Honjozo is slightly sweet. Careful craftsmanship is reflected in the quality of the sake, and a pleasant umami spreads across the palate. Made with Hitogokochi, a Nagano sake rice, it has a crisp, light finish and a gentle mouthfeel, and it is well received even by those who do not usually drink sake. It can also be enjoyed at room temperature or warmed.
