The 40% polishing and daiginjo grade with a refined aroma point to a clearly aromatic profile, while the low acidity of 1.2 and SMV of +4 give a soft, gently sweet palate. The description's 飲み応え suggests a fuller texture, so the body sits near the light side of the kun quadrant.

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