Sommelier's comment

The sweet and gorgeous aroma of honey and yellow peach is pleasant, and the acidity and spicy flavor are well-balanced. The sweetness peculiar to old sake is apparent, and while it is deep, it is also transparent and sharp. You can drink it refreshingly without getting tired of it.
