This daiginjo-grade sake in the junmai style makes useof a 40% grain polish and lengthy fermentation at a low temperature to give it a velvet-smooth mouthfeel from beginning to end. A scent of strawberries and vanilla gives way to charming and voluptuous savory notes. Clear, pale colour. Aromatic and refined with a nice fruity nose. Some pear and ripe apple notes. Smooth, elegant and seamless on the palate, with faint hints of white pepper, chocolate and hazelnut. Very textural with some sweetness (it's dry, so this is an impression of sweetness) and a long finish.
