From the website
This is a limited edition sake made from "Short-stalked Watabune," the father of Yamada-Nishiki, the "King of Sake Rice. Although it claims to be junmai, its rice polishing ratio is 60%, as polished as junmai ginjo.
The aroma has nuances reminiscent of lychee and white peaches, and despite being junmai, it has a beautiful and gorgeous aroma. When you sip it, the fresh acidity from the aroma and a hint of sweetness are well balanced, and the taste is calm yet firm with a core.
The best time to enjoy this sake is when it is cooled down from room temperature.
It enhances the delicate flavor of Hidakami.
It is an excellent partner for grilled fish and sashimi.
Rice used: Short-stalked Watabune, Polishing: 60%.
