Introduction

"In a word, it’s a seductive dry sake." While the body is firm with a solid umami at its core, its slender silhouette is utterly captivating. As Mr. Kanemitsu says, "we express dryness through a clean finish", and this sake impresses with a slight bitterness and a sharp, crisp end. This versatile dry sake allows you to enjoy its sharpness when chilled, and its umami-rich body when warmed, making it a great match for a wide variety of dishes. Crafted with the same specs as the Special Junmai, it delivers a clean, dry taste. Comparing it with the Special Junmai is highly recommended!

The body is firm and solid, with a rich flavor at the core, but you'll fall for its slender silhouette. As Mr. Kanemitsu says, 'It expresses spiciness through a clean finish,' leaving a slight bitterness, but the sharp, crisp ending is truly impressive. With cold sake, you can enjoy the sharpness, and with warm sake, you can savor the rich body. It's a versatile dry sake that pairs well with a wide range of dishes, making it a standout.
