It releases a soft and refreshing citrus-like fragrance. The palate is smooth and well-balanced, quickly unfolding into a clear and vivid umami layered with a pleasant sweetness. Accents of gentle citrus-like bitterness and acidity bring light and vibrant complexity. While juicy and full in character, the overall impression is tightened by a clean, crisp dryness. The finish is refreshing and invigorating — a light-bodied sake that still delivers deep satisfaction.
