Tasting and Pairing
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.
Food Pairing
