It has a modern F.F.J. (fresh, fruity, juicy) all over it, and according to Mr. Yamamoto, it has an image of "sharp sharpness like a Japanese sword". Slightly sweet fruit aroma, juicy acidity reminiscent of citrus fruits.

The aroma is restrained and the mouthfeel is clean with a hint of ginjo on the nose. It has a good acidity and is well-balanced as a sake, and is easy to drink with no aftertaste.
Happy New Year! I hope to drink a lot this year.
On New Year's Day, I invited my relatives to my home for a celebration. Junmai Daiginjo was the guest's request. We bought a commemorative bottle to celebrate the 100th anniversary at Sugahisa Shoten.
It was delicious. Although it was a Junmai Daiginjo, it was a very satisfying bottle with a great sense of sake.

Aftertaste

Impression] Modern, light and dry.
The aroma is subdued but refreshing. It is so light and refreshing that each element is suppressed to the extent that it has a low alcohol content of 14 degrees and a sake alcohol content of +15. It has a clear impression when drunk cold, and does not have any cloying taste for the degree of rice polishing.
It is the type of sake that shows its true potential when served with a meal.
The higher the temperature, the clearer the umami becomes.
