The aroma is fresh and refined, offering bright fruit notes reminiscent of green apple, white grape, and citrus. On the palate, the distinctive vitality of unpasteurized sake is immediately apparent, accompanied by a fine and lively natural effervescence. Gentle sweetness intertwines with Aramasa's signature refreshing acidity, creating a profile that is transparent yet full of tension and energy. As the sake develops across the palate, delicate rice-derived umami and the depth of natural fermentation gradually emerge, before concluding with a light, crisp, and vibrant acidic finish. Overall, the style is refreshing, pristine, and distinctly modern. As one of the most highly anticipated special limited releases each year, No.6 A-Type combines exceptional rarity, an experimental spirit, and remarkable refinement, making it a precious expression of Aramasa's contemporary brewing philosophy.
Aramasa No.6 A-Type is an exceptionally rare limited-edition expression within the Aramasa No.6 series.

Brewed using Akita Sake Komachi rice polished to 66%, with an alcohol content of 13%, it is designed in a lower-alcohol style that delivers remarkable lightness, freshness, and vitality.
