On the palate, it reveals citrus notes, white pepper, and fresh herbal nuances, culminating in a long, clean finish. Brewed with Koshihikari rice polished to 70% and boasting an alcohol content of 14.9%, this junmai sake pairs exquisitely with baked herb salmon, grilled lobster, and light poultry dishes.
