The muscat and pear-like aroma stands out, consistent with a 50% polished junmai daiginjo that is unpasteurized and direct-drawn, giving a fragrant yet light profile. An SMV of 0 and the described calm sweetness point to a gentle, moderately sweet palate.

About

This junmai daiginjo sake bears the name of master brewer Yokoyama and carries the spirit of Iki Island. The Shiro Label has a crisp, cool, and fresh aroma reminiscent of muscat and Western pear. The floral character of the aroma is so pronounced that it could stand on its own. It is also very well suited to being served slightly chilled in a wine glass or similar.
