A fruity nose dominated by fresh lychee. The sake is full-bodied with a smooth, silky texture, opening with noticeable sweetness before a strong, citrus-like acidity takes over. There is some gentle rice umami underneath, while the acidity gives the sake a lively, refreshing character. It finishes short, clean and crisp, making it particularly enjoyable on a hot summer day.
