When poured into a thoroughly chilled glass, the Junmai Daiginjo aroma evokes thoughts of sweet melon. Upon tasting, one can savor the fruity and refreshing sweetness, while the flavor of Yamadanishiki rice spreads throughout the mouth, creating a clear and beautiful sensation akin to the effects of highly polished rice. This is a rich and refreshing sake with a memorable aftertaste. It has been praised as a truly worthy representative of Dassai, an elegant and excellent Junmai Daiginjo.
