Opening the bottle reveals a subtle, fresh aroma with fruity-sweet hints of pear and berry. The palate is dry and robust, driven by the depth of Miyamanishiki rice. Full-bodied with a velvety texture, it maintains the lively character typical of unpasteurized sake. Firm acidity and earthy undertones lead to a long, bitter-tinged finish. At 19% ABV, it delivers a powerful, flavour-packed experience—an excellent choice for those who prefer bold, expressive nihonshu.
