2015 BY Gohyakuman, 77% polished rice. From the floatation, it looks like the ori pulling after the top tank is lazy. It feels dry with a fairly gentle impression. The mild acidity, which doesn't feel like a nama yeast mash, is what I thought it would be when served cold, but when it's warmed up, the acidity stands out and goes well with crab nabe.
