SENKYO's popular summer limited edition sake. It combines the light, sharp malic acidity with the drinkability of low alcohol. The outline is clearly SENKYO, and a new concept of both clarity and three-dimensionality of low alcohol is presented. The acidity has been refined from last year to produce a sparkling acidity. In addition to the pursuit of clarity and lightness, the alcohol content and amino acids were reduced as much as possible to produce a lightness and freshness that is easy to pull off. Yamada-Nishiki is a late rice variety that tends to have a lot of flavor, but we faced the "acidity" and made it simple and clear.
Top notes of grapefruit and lemongrass, with a refreshing citrus aroma. In the mouth, it has presence and sparkling beautiful acidity. It is as if you are biting into a fruit and it overflows with juiciness! The second half is light and crisp, with a light, pale, pleasant acidity. The aromas and flavors are clear and fresh, along with a variety of acids, and are just what is needed to bring out the summer. This year, too, "Adult Lemon Squash" is alive and well!

Hmmm, it tastes like a child smash between apple and lemon, more like a sweet sparkling white wine than a sake?
