This is a single-firing autumn hiyaoroshi, a standard dry junmai sake brewed with Yume-no-Ka rice. It has a refreshingly crisp mouthfeel reminiscent of green apples. The sweetness is subtle and light, but the sugar content is high and satisfying. It has a light body that retains its freshness while wearing the calmness of aging, with youthful acidity, a certain astringency that shows the remnants of youth, and a dignified +8 spiciness that spreads out refreshingly. It is a wine of great perfection that comes from letting it sit until the fall. It has a crisp and refreshing taste, and the lingering spiciness is perfect as a mid-meal drink. Enjoy it cold or warmed.
