Slightly apple-like aroma on the top.
The same mild aroma as the first sip, the firm umami of rice spreads gradually with a plump sweetness and fine acidity, and is quickly quenched by the spiciness of the alcohol and a moderate bitterness.
While the umami of the rice is firm, the dryness of the alcohol in the latter half makes it easy to drink. This sake has a somewhat classical impression. It is better to drink it with a meal than on its own.
It goes well with motsu nabe and cod roe dishes.
