Subtle resinous notes accompany fruity aromas of ripe orchard fruit (mainly watermelon). The palate opens gently with a smooth, medium-bodied texture, revealing soft fruit flavours and a pleasant rice umami. A lively but well-balanced acidity keeps the sake fresh; a touch of bitterness emerges towards the finish. It ends clean, crisp, and medium-length, making it an easy-drinking sake that is particularly enjoyable during the summer months.
