Tasting Notes:

(Sake Meter +3.5)
The rice and the yeast strain for this sake were specially delevoped to make sake in this climate.
Bright and crisp aromas that are almost lemony. There is an underlying earthy aroma as well.
Tart on the palate with at first and there is a rich, oily texture. The finish leaves you with a creamy texture and some earthy notes along with a hint of grapefruit.
A tart style but with some nice creamy texture.
