Tasty when chilled, but it really opens up and develops full flavor and aroma as it approaches room temperature, with lychee, cashew, and floral notes, but a clean and dry finish. Excellent on its own, and matches well to meat dishes.

Really solid, semi dry, enjoyable sake. It didn't blow me away, but I wasn't upset to receive it, and I did finish it quite quickly :) (I drank it chilled)

Dry and light with aroma hints to spices and flowers. Not a big surprise as a hot sake category champion to taste awesome at 120oF, however it is so well balance between dryness and acidity that even cold is a pleasure, better in ochoko to bump a little sweetness notes

It has a nice aroma. While its SMV is +5.5 and Acidity is 1.2, I did not find it dry or light enough, though my wife found it a bit too try. We both agreed, however, that it tasted great when it was served hot.
