The sake expresses a light and elegant aroma, featuring sweet fruit notes reminiscent of pear and green apple. On the palate, it continues Kaze no Mori’s signature gentle effervescence, offering a smooth and refreshing texture that gradually unfolds into juicy, full-bodied umami with lively acidity. Compared with the classic “Akitsuho 657,” the overall flavor is richer and more rounded, while still maintaining a clear and transparent character with layered dimensionality. It finishes with a soft and clean aftertaste. This is a limited release that fully showcases the charm of Akitsuho and is also ideal for tasting side-by-side with “Akitsuho 657.”
From the popular brand Kaze no Mori, brewed in Gose City, Nara Prefecture, comes this limited release “Akitsuho Experimental Brewing.” It uses Akitsuho sake rice contract-grown in Uda City, Nara Prefecture, and is brewed with a polishing ratio of 70%, slightly lower than the brewery’s flagship “Akitsuho 657.” This reflects the brewery’s philosophy that “there is no superiority or inferiority in polishing ratios,” exploring the broader possibilities of rice expression through different polishing levels.
