The rice is polished down to 70% and it has an alcohol percentage of 14.5%.
It's a clear sake with a light sweet fragrant nose - "Hana yakana kaori" translates as "Cheerful fragrance".
It's a smooth sake, a little sweet and fresh. There's a short aftertaste, and it's very nice and drinkable.
I've written in my notes that it's a little sweet but also dry, it really dries out the mouth.
In fact after a few swigs it became too dry. Tastes good going in but afterwards, really dry. It lost a couple of points because of this.
