Junmai
Daiginjo
This junmai daiginjo has a moderate fragrance and mild flavor, with hints of rice umami. One can enjoy its crisp finish when served chilled. When served at room temperature, one will taste a good balance of rice umami, sweetness, and crisp aftertaste. This is a shokuchu-shu (sake to be had during a meal) that pleases the drinker with the variation of flavors affected by different temperatures.

Sake vessels
A wide-mouth, saucer-like cup is best to bring out the fragrant aroma. The sake will contact the entire tongue, allowing one to taste its complex flavor: sweetness, sourness, and umami.
Food pairing
Clams in general that have distinct texture and fragrance (prepared as sashimi, grilled, or steamed), and delicacies like heshiko (mackerel fermented in rice bran), karasumi (salted and sun-dried mullet roe), and kaburazushi (one of the primitive forms of sushi made by fermenting amberjack- and carrot-stuffed radish).
