Special junmai at 60% polishing with SMV +3 and acidity 1.9 points to a fairly dry, crisp profile, and the cask aging adds a slight cedar note. The brewery's words 'smooth' and 'light' outweigh the 'rich' wording, so the sake sits in the restrained, light quadrant with modest aroma.

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