Tasting Notes

The aroma of this sake is distinctly reminiscent of ripe melon. On the palate, it reveals a touch of sweetness, gentle umami, and soft acidity, all leading to a long, well-balanced, and elegant finish. It is best enjoyed in a wine glass to fully appreciate its unique aromas. The ideal serving temperature ranges from 5°C to 12°C—right out of the fridge is perfect. Experience how the flavor evolves as the temperature changes. If the flavors do not open up immediately after opening, it is recommended to keep the bottle in the fridge and let it breathe for 2-3 days.
