Rice polishing ratio: 55
Yeast used: Yeast preserved in the brewery
Sake meter: +3.5

Slight apple and lychee-like overtones
The same subdued aroma as the first rise, the robust umami of rice and subdued sweetness spread out with crisp acidity, and the slight bitterness and dryness of alcohol make the taste refreshingly smooth and refreshing.
It is crisp on its own, slightly dry with a classical flavor, and goes well with sushi and Japanese food.
