Professional Review
"The aroma is gentle, like that of courgettes, green jujubes and young leaves, like the winds of April and May. The line is thin and clean, with a sake aroma. The taste has spicy notes of tree buds and sansho (Japanese pepper), and the sharpness of the flavour brings out all the contours. The straightforward taste allows it to be enjoyed on any occasion. The aftertaste is subdued. Recommended served cold or at room temperature."
Pairing Suggestion: Dishes with fat and sweetness, such as squid tempura, marbo doufu, chinjaolo sou, cured ham melon.

"The aroma is extremely gentle. There is almost no noticeable yeast-derived ester aroma, instead, it offers a mild fragrance of sake rice and koji, reminiscent of gentle chestnuts and glutinous rice flour (known as "domyoji" flour), with hints of iodine-like aroma resembling soil and sea breeze, along with the richness of soft fermented butter. There are subtle notes of white pepper, hinoki (Japanese cypress) scent, and a faint smokiness. The flavor is somewhat dry and light. It carries a refreshing acidity and a pleasantly integrated bitterness that adds depth. The finish is somewhat short. It is recommended to enjoy this sake slightly warmed, with temperatures ranging from 20°C to 45°C. A large porcelain guinomi (sake cup) is ideal, with a straight shape that allows the aroma to be perceived without being trapped."
Pairing Suggestion: Dishes such as tarte flambée or quiche that incorporate bacon and eggs.
Dishes that involve frying whole river fish or consuming the organs along with the fish.
