A sake with a full flavor and strong acidity. The acidity is doubly pronounced due to the use of the acidic yeast 77, not to mention the acidity of Yamahai. It has a chocolate-like sweetness with a hint of orange peel and banana. I quite like the taste.
The sake level is -18, which is quite sweet, but it is good. It scores very high in the sweet and sour Yamahai category.
It is made with rice called Ichihozumi from Akita.
