Elegant, smooth and silky mouth feel with a deep juicy, medium sweet fruitiness on the palate. A gentle bitterness creeps in to create some clean form and structure in the sake. A premium, small batch sake brewed with ultra low polished rice and very careful, manually intensive, (shizuku) drip extraction technique and tobindori bottling method.
