Tasting and Pairing
It features a well-balanced umami flavor and a firm body, while also having a touch of softness. Using the KA1-25 yeast strain, which was developed in Hiroshima Prefecture, it expresses a subtle ginjo aroma reminiscent of pears and a resilient umami taste. The aftertaste tightens up with a slight astringency from the medium-hard water. This versatile sake can be enjoyed fresh as a chilled sake and offers a fuller umami experience when served warm.
