A great example of a modern Junmai style which merges some bright fruit character of peach and apricot with some fresh banana, rice notes and savoury umami. This sake has muted aromatics and is a light-bodied style bristling with vitality and a food friendly dry finish with a touch of acidity to add a full stop. Considerable flexibility with food and its easy drinking vibe makes it a great all-rounder.
