Tasting Notes: Fruity aroma similar to apple or banana. Luxurious umami-rich flavor but smooth and refreshing to your throat and at the finish. Chill to enjoy even more features of this sake. Japan’s highest level super soft water “Kokuyo Water” is used as the mother water. With the super soft water, the scent of sake and the umami of rice, as well as the sharpness, become luxuriously intensified.
