Modest, elegant, delicate, fruity aroma. The acidity is quite strong, which is not found in other Jikin, and it disappears after the mid-palate (after a few days, the acidity at the mouth is quite mild). The sweetness and umami are mild throughout, and the back palate has a strong umami with depth, which is typical of sake. I feel that this is a sake that should be paired with expensive kaiseki dishes. Without any preconceptions, it is a sake that adds color to special occasions. It is expensive, so even if I could buy it, I wouldn't repeat drinking it at home. 4.50
