Description: The nose on this extremely light and drinkable sake is filled with marshmallow, steamed rice, and milky aromas. Do not miss this brew if you are looking for a super soft sake that is void of boozy elements. It is so velvety and smooth that each sip is like a slip-n-slide ride of flavor from the tip to the tail, and all the while you forget that you are swallowing. Round and fat there is a gentle steamed rice flavor that hides nougat and marshmallow undertones and the lower alcohol level and acidity makes this Junmai an incredibly balanced light and smooth type of sake.
