The sake rice used is Mie prefecture's Kami no Ho, which is polished to a 50% ratio. The kobo (yeast), MK-3, is also from Mie prefecture, indicating the brewery's commitment to using local ingredients. The sake has an herb-like fresh aroma and a fruity, white wine-like flavor. One can enjoy its aroma even better when served in a wine glass. It was selected in the Mie Selection, a line of products that represent the prefecture. It is also an Iga brand.

A glass that widens at the rim is recommended in order to maximize the fragrance.
This is a gentle junmai daiginjo with an enjoyable, expansive aroma. It pairs well with both western and Japanese cuisine. It's great with dishes like lean Japanese dish, meuniere, cheese, or pasta.
