A unique sake with a soft flavor, a clear taste, and a smooth finish.
The water is super soft. This sake brewery has a spring of super-ultra-soft water. The water is delicious, and the rice used is intuitively chosen (I have a vague memory that Yuki-Megami rice is not available outside of Yamagata Prefecture. The aroma of the rice bounces up in a good, rustic way, and is strong when swallowed, but not sharp. Dry. It has a surly potency, perhaps due to the unfiltered process. It is drinkable, but with a lot of body. In the end, it is strong and gentle. I wonder if it is characterized by its aroma, which immediately rises as soon as you drink it.
