Professional Review
"The nose has notes of cemedine, young bananas and bamboo shoots. Thanks to its moderate acidity and sufficient sharpness, it is very food-friendly. It is a perfect complement to Japanese dishes with a hint of oil, and to Western dishes with fermented or creamy flavours. Cold sake is recommended, as well as hot sake."
Pairing Suggestion: In Japanese cuisine: deep-fried aubergine, oden; in Western cuisine: carbonara, creamed chicken.

"It has a refreshing grapefruit aroma as the main note, along with deeper scents reminiscent of watermelon rind and custard, which add complexity. There is a subtle hint of burnt nuances like bitter chocolate or brown sugar, perhaps derived from the firing process. There are also hints of scents resembling paint or ink. The flavor is a dry sake with a pronounced acidity. It is recommended to serve it at a temperature between 5°C and 12°C. For enhancing its crispness, a straight and thin glass is recommended. If you prefer to bring out the fullness of flavor, a Riesling glass is recommended."
Pairing Suggestion: Sashimi (lean tuna, shellfish), grilled fish with vinegar citrus sauce, yakitori (skewered chicken, particularly breast meat with wasabi), and other simple dishes.
It can also complement desserts with restrained sweetness and a touch of bitterness, such as pound cake with orange peel or gâteau au chocolat.
