This sake is befitting of the name "Princess Michiko." Its top notes exude a pitiable, splendid, and elegant fragrance, delicately tickling the nose. The taste carries a captivating and refined sweetness derived from the flower yeast. Of course, it is not only sweet but also boasts the unique and delightful aftertaste and high-quality lingering finish that are characteristic of Toyobijin. It is akin to the regal appearance of Empress Michiko, a true gem that can be called an artistic masterpiece.
