Tasting Notes

An elegant and beautifully balanced expression from Matsuzaki Syuzo, showcasing a light body with remarkable aromatic purity. This Junmai Daiginjo opens with bright notes of banana, melon, muscat grape, and fresh pear, carried by a soft and refined aromatic lift. As the sake aerates, a gentle sweetness and quiet minerality emerge, adding subtle dimension to its clean, polished profile. On the palate, it remains light yet layered—smooth, delicately expressive, and shaped by a mild acidity that brings clarity without weight. The finish is graceful, understated, and quietly persistent.

Overview

Best enjoyed well-chilled to preserve its freshness and highlight the fruit-driven aromatics inherent to Yume no Kaori rice. Its light body, soft acidity, and elegant structure pair beautifully with dishes that emphasize finesse rather than intensity. Especially harmonious with white fish, lean meats, lightly seasoned vegetables, and dashi-based dishes, where the sake’s gentle sweetness and subtle fruit tones enhance natural flavors while maintaining balance.
