A challenging sake brewed by going back to the basics of sake brewing!
The rice is polished to 70% using Kame-no-o, which brings out the flavor of the rice and produces a dry, crisp Junmai sake.

(My impression after drinking it)
Slightly yellowish in appearance. The ginjo aroma has a fruity flavor even when cooled to the touch. In the mouth, the modest but firm umami of rice and acidity are fully assertive. The aroma of lychee-like fruit runs down the throat. It must be sweet. The umami of the rice is firm, but reserved, making it ideal as an in-meal sake. As one would expect from a junmai sake, it has no unpleasant taste.
